How To Choose A Cat Name

If you're finding it difficult to choose a name for your new kitten or cat there are a few pointers which might help. Cats are notoriously independent and although they become accustomed to routine, they are not as 'trainable' as dogs. It's well known that dogs can hear hard consonants (T, D, K) easiy and this helps when naming them. Research shows that cats find it easier to learn names with one, or two syllables and easier still if they end in 'ie' or 'y'. Aristocats. Cats are naturally disdainful and give the impression of being high-born.

For this reason, it's tempting to give them a long-winded aristocratic name. That's fine, but be prepared to shorten it for every day use. Does the shortened version sound good - or not what you had in mind? Call My Name New kittens are adorable and the names that spring to mind may reflect this gorgeous bundle of fur. But kittens grow into cats very quickly. Try to choose a name that will suit the cat for the rest of it's life.

Once you have made a choice, stick with it so that the cat can learn to make the association. If you keep changing your mind the cat will become very confused and may lose interest altogether! Don't Be In A Huge Rush Waiting a few days can make choosing the name a lot easier. Get to know your cat and watch as a character and personality emerges.

A name may emerge naturally! Don't forget that you will be calling for the cat. Will you really feel comfortable shouting Tibbles within earshot of the neighbors? Inspired By Fame.
