As most of our friends know, my cat of 16 years died last year of cancer.  As we are a four cat household, we've been talking about getting another cat for a while.  We wanted to get the operation out of the way before we started seriously looking, but hubbylove has been dragging me to PetSmart on a weekly basis to see the cats they display from local rescue centers. Today we met Juicy.  She's a black shorthair that is just under a year old.  She's very friendly and she and I hit it off right away.  My husband said we could adopt her if she was the one I wanted.  So we will be picking her up tomorrow morning (already got all the paperwork out of the way).

My only problem is the name.  She was named when she was dropped off at the shelter, so she doesn't recognize the name as hers yet, and I am afraid that she may live up to her name if she keeps it.  Being Juicy from the front or behind isn't a pleasant thought.

So here's the contest:  We need a good name for our new cat.  I'll post some photos tomorrow so you can get a look at her.  As for the prize, I'll come up with something in the next day or so and post it.

So far we have: Mrs. Blick, Ursula, Sinca (from my husband), Frankie (that's my suggestion), and Gaz (from a co-worker).  We'd really like other options to choose from.

Just leave a comment with your recommendation for a name for our cat.  We'll leave it open for about a week, or until we find the perfect name.
