How to Name Your Yellow Cat
Naming a yellow cat is a lot like naming any other cat. The main aim should be to choose a name that you like. While the name will obviously go to the cat, our cats don’t really like or dislike names. Therefore, the most important person in the decision-making process is you.

Luckily, you have plenty of time to name your cat. There is no deadline. We recommend narrowing down your list as much as possible and then trying out each name on your cat for a short period. Some names will simply fit your cat more than others. Trying them out will help you figure out which names fit best. And, no, your cat won’t get confused. It takes longer than a day or two for them to learn their name.
In the end, choose a name that you love because you’re the one who’s going to be using the name, after all.
