thank you for name-approval! one of the drawbacks of my current homebound existence is that I don't see many people in the social sense, so my usual resources for naming cats - a random friend making some comment which sticks - have been entirely missing. Naming is really a collaborative thing.
I am, I have to say, feeling as though I have Definitely Achieved Things Against The Odds in acquiring her. And I absolutely get the impulse to adopt an animal who wouldn't otherwise have a chance at a home. One of the infuriating things about this SPCA experience was in asking, first off, if they had any older cats who'd been here for a while and weren't likely to be adopted, and getting a blank/confused response, because apparently no-one knew enough about the cats in the cattery to make that determination. Maddening. But at least I rescued Ciri from three months of incarceration. I cannot fathom why no-one had taken her, she's affectionate and adorable. Weird.
