  • As a rule, there are no problems with the selection of a name. In fact, you can call a pet anything and any word that often comes to mind with an association with a cat. You can proceed from the character, color, breed and much more. But in any case, the selection of nicknames must be approached responsibly. A cat gets used to a certain word, and then retraining to respond to another is almost impossible.
  • Whether or not you should call a human name - it's up to you. However, it is still desirable that the nickname be a cat. This will make it possible not to confuse potential guests or family members with the same name.
  • Nicknames that have nothing to do with the appearance and character of the cat and are negative in nature should be avoided. Yet the nickname for the pet is given once and for all. You can give beautiful and affectionate names, which would fully convey all the respect and love of the owner for the pet.
  • It is advisable to choose a consonant short name with two or three syllables, so that the pet can be called to you immediately and quickly. Often, in pursuit of the original name, the owners choose too complex nicknames, thereby complicating pronunciation and losing simplicity. Fortunately, beautiful sound does not interfere with simplicity. There are a lot of beautiful words that have only two or three syllables.
  • Before giving an unusual name that is a word from another language, it's best to check the meaning. For example, you can take a lot of foreign names or words that mean a beautiful word in translation.
  • A nickname will be very appropriate and convenient if it contains whistling and hissing sounds, because cats react very well to such sounds. For example, Kusya, Dusya. It is very good when the sounds “k” and “s” are combined in the name (Kisa, Xeon, Scarly). And it is also very undesirable to have only deaf sounds, because in this way the word loses its sonority.
  • After the kitten appears at home, you should immediately think about the nickname and soon begin to call it that way so that the kitten once and for all gets used to its name and calls out in the future.

The Importance of Choosing the Right Kitten Name

Take seriously the choice of a nickname for your pet, because your animal, like a person, is also a person, which means that you need to come up with a special name that is suitable for him. Your choice should please not only you, but also your pet: his name will be pronounced several times a day, and the animal will also need to respond to it correctly.

An important point: the nickname for a cat should be concise, sound clear and not too stretched. So the animal will remember it faster, and it will be easier for the owner to pronounce it.

  • Nevertheless, if you really want to reward a cat with a long or multi-syllable name, don't be discouraged - there is a way out. Even the longest name can be shortened: Geraldine - Jera , for example.
  • There is a tendency to call cats human names, but this is not the best idea. It will be embarrassing if a friend comes to visit you Sonya , and you will call your cat with the same name. It's another matter if these are old names, which are used quite rarely these days: Filimon, Agafya, Roxana.

What you should rely on when choosing a name for your pet:

  • Cat fur color. There is already room for fantasy to roam, and if the nickname Chernysh for a black kitten, for example, sounds rustic - name the pet Blackie , or use other foreign languages. Spend associations, white cat - Snowball or Fluff, the black - ember etc.
  • Wool feature. Bald cat - shrek, or tutankhamen, or the entire list of Egyptian pharaohs (suitable for the Sphinx breed). A smooth-haired cat can be called Bagheera, Panther , fluffy - fat man , red - Carrot, Pumpkin or Redhead . A nickname suitable for a small kitten Lump, Druzhok, Bosyachok. But remember - it will not always remain small: a cat weighing 10 kg named Lump - it will be a very funny picture.
  • Pedigree cat. In this case, the name for her must be chosen according to her origin. British people can be honored with an English name, Thais with Japanese ones, and Persians with gentle-sounding names. Or simply - Baron, Marquis, Lord, Earl.
  • The nature of the pet . If you have already managed to know the subtle disposition of your cat, or rather, if there is some peculiarity in it, then it will be easy to name it. Sloth can be called Sonya or spit, mischievous kitten - Hooligan, Prankster, Naughty.

Approach the choice of a nickname with a sense of humor, come up with a mischievous and funny name. Cats have such a serious behavior that you just want to play a trick on them. For example, Bun, Watermelon. There are a lot of funny names. Just don't reward your younger friends with offensive or sarcastic nicknames, even as a joke. Cats are more than friends, they are family members and should not be insulted. Zamazura, Gryaznulya, Scoundrel and similar nicknames will not work.

Do not despair if you come up with a good, at your discretion, name for your pet, but he does not react to it in any way. After some time - a week, two weeks or more, you can try to rename the kitten. But do not rename the animal more than once. Then it will not understand at all what they want from it.

Nicknames for cats, depending on the breed

There is a rather interesting formula on how to give a name to a kitten with a pedigree. Here are two basic rules:

  1. The name of a kitten, whether it is a boy or a girl, must begin with the letter that is present in the name of his mother - a cat.

  2. The serial number of the letter of the cat's name is determined by the number of times she brought offspring.

For example, if the cat's name is Flory and she brought kittens for the second time, then their names should begin with "L" . This is not a whim at all, but a mandatory requirement in catteries that breed thoroughbred cat species. This fact should be indicated in all documents - metrics confirming the pedigree, this makes it possible for the kitten to take part in various exhibitions and competitions in the future.

If the animal's name consists of several words, or is complex in itself, you can come up with an easier, simplified version of it. In addition, experts who breed their own cats advise giving the kitten a short name consisting of one or two syllables. For example, Archie or Richie.

After six months, the cat should respond to its name. If this is not the case, then there is a high probability that it is too difficult for him. However, do not mislead your pet by changing his name, but pronounce the one that was originally given clearly and expressively. Praise and call to eat by saying his name.

Remember that with the help of a correctly chosen name, you can correct the existing inclinations of the animal, cultivating the desired behavior and character.
