How to choose a name for a cat
When choosing a name for a baby, you need to approach it carefully, taking into account the character of the new family member, his behavior, as well as who he is like and how he is unique. Perhaps the baby prefers to explore unfamiliar surroundings on his own or prefers to relax more often in a soft chair. Assessing the kitten's personality is the main criterion in choosing a name.
Various specialized books, Internet sites and your own erudition will help you find a suitable nickname for your pet. Often interesting beautiful names come to mind unexpectedly. Imagination will not hurt, but remember that kids learn better a name with one or two syllables. Long words cut down. For example, call Innocent Kesha, Tikhon - Tisha, Timofey - Tima. Also consider other recommendations:
- cats like names ending with the letter “i” (Shandi);
- it is desirable that the chosen name contain whistling or hissing sounds: it is assumed that they are better perceived by animals, cats respond to them faster (Barsik, Fluff);
- the name should have more vowels (Murzik, Kuzya);
- pick up sonorous nickname, well remembered, but not annoying to the ear.
When choosing a name, some are guided by their hobbies, calling their ward Cheeseburger, Cosmos, or Fisherman. Others name kittens by the name of a friend, neighbor, or give the pet the name of a cartoon or television series character: Kitten Woof, Cholito. And there are those who choose names that are not subject to any logic - Musket, Beaver. Still, you should approach the choice of a baby’s name more responsibly and give something that really suits him, and not just something he liked. And to ensure that your pet’s name matches its image as best as possible, take into account 7 factors:
- The character of a kitten. When a baby’s nickname reflects his character and is also chosen with a creative approach and a certain amount of humor, it always causes affection, positive emotions those around you. And in order to choose the name as accurately as possible, the pet needs to be just a kitten for a day or two until it finally becomes clear what it is like. Suitable for a meek creature pet names- Fluff, Snowball. If the kitten is a true beast and a real fury, call him Naughty or Lucifer.
If the kitten is kind and calm, give him an affectionate name.
- Breed. For Siamese, Thai, and Abyssinian kittens, choose some unusual, exotic, oriental-style nickname. Look in the book of ancient Egyptian myths suitable name, who were called gods and heroes. Cowboy names are suitable for kittens of the American Shorthair, Wirehair breed. Give your British Shorthair kitten an aristocratic name.
An exotic and unusual nickname would suit an Abyssinian kitten, for example, the name of a character from myths
- Country of origin. In this case, choosing a name is similar to choosing it depending on the breed. For example, name a Siberian kitten with the Slavic name Tikhon, give an American one the name John or Bob, and give a Thai or Siamese one the name Bun Mi. And also pay attention to the names of heroes known within the corresponding country.
- Appearance. This indicator is closely related to the baby’s disposition and his breed. One and the other certainly leaves its mark on the cat’s appearance, sometimes turning a graceful Siamese baby into an obvious hooligan. And the name given to him, for example, Osiris, will look very surprising. Do not forget about the length of the coat and do not call the short-haired animal Shaggy, which is clearly not true.
- Color, eye color. When choosing a name, eye and coat color also matters. The eyes of kittens of the Siamese and Thai breeds are blue or blue, their color is blue-point (seal-point), so the nicknames Sapphire, Bell, Onyx, Morion are suitable. Less sophisticated names are Chernysh, Belyash, Ryzhik.
Call the ginger kitten simply Ryzhik, and the black one - Chernysh
- Age. Over time, the baby will turn into a mustachioed, important cat, who has high self-esteem and an amazing feeling towards his person. self-esteem. With an eye to the future, it would be nice to call it a serious name Boss or Porsche.
- Date of birth, character. There is an opinion that kittens born in winter have a tougher character, and a softer name, for example, Michael, will suit them. Summer kittens are often called by a more formal name, such as Tom. If the baby managed to be born on the eve of some holiday or on this day itself, name him in honor of this event. So, give the name Valentine to the animal that appeared on Valentine's Day.
For purebred kittens with a pedigree (metric), there are certain rules in choosing names. The document will contain a column including the name of the nursery and the name of the animal. The nickname is chosen so that its initial letter in the alphabet corresponds to a number that coincides with the ordinal number of births of the kitten’s mother. There are clubs where unified registration of litters has been introduced. The breeder is informed with which letter the kitten's name should begin. The first litter has the letter “A”. Babies from the same litter are given names starting with the same letter. In other clubs, rules are introduced for breeders, according to which they themselves choose which letter the baby’s name will begin with.
A kitten that has a pedigree, especially a branched and solid one, is often called an impressive name in accordance with its social status. So, Baron Oscar von Benjamin de Lacroix is quite a significant name. I’m just wondering how to address a baby with such a long name and call him, for example, to eat. In reality, this long nickname is shortened to Benji, Baron, Donkey. In rare cases, an animal is given a nickname that has nothing to do with its pedigree.
When choosing a name for four-legged friend include musical works by different authors. When the kitten shows interest in one of them, name this composer or performer and name the animal - Mozart, Bilan.
Once the name is chosen, try calling the kitten. If he immediately responds to it and comes running to you, he obviously liked the name and will definitely stick. Remember that not only love, care and kindness are the main part of caring for a baby. The nickname is also very important. After all, the kitten is now an independent member of the family, and you need to address it by name.
