Talking Cat & Kitten names

Just lately a lot of new cat owners have been asking for a name for thier new Cat/Kitten. Here is a bit of info that may help....

After selecting what type of cat / kitten to purchase, its time for the next biggest challenge - coming up with a name.

Certain cat names lend themselves to certain breeds and the markings on many kittens can also make your life a bit easier, such as if the kitten is all one colour except for his/her paws. Here you could give your new cat a name like 'socks' or 'paws' or 'claws' or something similar.

It is important to invlove the whole family when choosing your cats name as each of you will have to be shouting it out at some point. There are many helpful ideas around - just broaden your horizons. Think about a favourite celebrity, place name, song title, drink, meal, car, piece of furniture, football teams nickname or stadium, brand or business name. As well as that you have always got the more run of the mill cat names such as 'tiger' or simply 'Puss'. Selecting a name for your cat is supposed to be a fun and enjoyable exercise and it is important not to get too carried away.

The most important thing to remember when choosing a name for your cat is that on many occasion YOU are going to be the one standing outside shouting it at the top of your voice. It is at this point when such names as 'snuggle puss' or 'fairy cakes' can seem a very odd choice indeed !

Haha, good post.
I like to give our cats Norwegian names, unless their pedigree name is something we like, then it stays as it is, lol.

Re: Cat & Kitten names

Re: Cat & Kitten names

We have always as most of you know themed our litters,mine are usually chavtastic and chicOh's are usually sci fi themed,and our older girls names are what suits their characters/personalities and they end up being rhymed with something pleasant and a few affectionate choice names too

Red face Re: Cat & Kitten names

I knew what my kitten's name was going to be before I'd even picked out a cat. I had a male and female name in mind. I knew I was getting an Egyptian Mau, so I picked the name of a goddess that was worshipped in ancient Egypt for the female name (the goddess was often depicted standing on the back of a lion ). I picked the name myself and didn't consult any of the family: my cat, my choice! It's cool because even the registered name that was given to her by the breeder is the name of an Egyptian queen.
