How to Name Your Cat

One of the best tricks to use when naming your cat is to take your time. Sure, names may pop into your mind the moment you lay eyes on your kitty, but a great name should encompass all your cat’s traits. Here are some helpful hints on ways to find the perfect feline name:

Your Cat’s Appearance

If your cat has unique characteristics, a name may come to you easier. Special markings or features help owners find suitable choices. Whenever you’re naming your pet, keep their color, markings, and size in mind. When naming a Maine Coon, a breed known for its size, something like Sprout may not work—unless that’s what you’re going for.

Your Cat’s Personality

As cat owners, we all know each cat in our lives has a unique personality. If your cat is independent and strong, they need a name that indicates that. If your kitty is nothing more than a lovebug who craves all your attention, there are many names out there that will fit their loving personality perfectly. Taking the time to get to know your cat will make choosing the perfect name easier for the entire family.

Family Names

At times, it feels suiting to give your cat a name that has been passed down in the family. Perhaps a cat you were close to as a child had a name you loved. If your cat’s personality fits it, it’s okay to use it. At other times, you may want to name them in memory of someone, or a pet, that you’ve lost. While this may be a bit heartbreaking at first, your new kitty will be proud to wear a name that means so much to you and the family.
