When a small kitten appears in the house, all family members have an interesting task - to come up with a name for the pet. As you know, animals are our smaller brothers, which means that a new little younger brother (or sister) cannot do without a name. A nickname is just as important for cats as a name is for a person; the fate of an animal may depend on the correct choice of a name.
Recommendations when choosing a nickname for a cat or cat
Owners of purebred cats have limited options in choosing a name, because when buying a pet his passport is issued, which indicates his nickname, reflecting the name of the club or kennel, the names of the parents or other factors. Calling an animal with such a long name at home is problematic, so it is shortened to shorter derivative forms. The original form of the name will not be remembered by the pet itself, and the owner will very quickly get tired of calling the animal in this way.
When choosing a nickname for a pet or pet, it is necessary to select a word consisting of two or three syllables, so that it is easier for the cat to remember it, and containing hissing sounds in the composition, in particular - sounds "s" and "k"... Cats are very sensitive to them, it is no coincidence that they all, regardless of nicknames, respond to "kitty-kitty". In general, felines respond best to a name consisting of two to three syllables. Experts say that cats generally perceive only the first three sounds, they do not distinguish the rest and practically do not understand. If these sounds include hissing consonants, the animal will more quickly remember its name and learn to respond to it.
The meaning of the cat's name will entirely depend on the owner's imagination.
How names for cats and cats are chosen
Most often names for cats and cats are selected as follows:
There are often cases when the owners call cats or cats in honor of politicians, sports stars, cinema, pop stars or other famous people. For example, cats can be called Chernomyrdin, Obama, Barack, Messi. Cats are called Madonna, J. Lo, Monroe, Mata Hari and other similar names.
Very unusual names for cats and cats are often invented, in such cases the meaning of the nickname is understandable only to the owners of the animal - Sorcha, Mush, Shusha, Mumun, Nola, etc.
There are often cases when the names for female cats are derived from the nicknames of male cats. This happens when the owners believe that they have a male kitten and give him the appropriate nickname, and after a while it turns out that this is a female kitten. These include the options Fluff - Cannon, Simak - Simka, White - Squirrel and the like.
Cats and cats can call by human names: Vaska, Vanka, Marusya, Lizka, Alexandra, Valeria, Yana, Julia, Alina, etc. Names can be both domestic and foreign: Angelica, Vanessa, Leila, Veronica, Arabella, Angelina, Vanessa, Virginia, Justina, Juliet, Ginger, Jessica, Isabella, Mariana, Mirabelle, etc.
There are beautiful names for cats and cats, formed from purring feline sounds: Murlyka, Murzik, Murchen, Murka, Murzilka, Murlyasha, Murcheta, Muranya, Murkisya, Murlysya, Murchet, Murashka, Myauka, Murlin Murlo, Mur-Murchka, Murzilka etc.
Human imagination is limitless, as a result of which representatives of the feline family can be rewarded with funny and funny nicknames. Known options such as Belyash, Cervelat, Dog, Zaliposha, Barbatsutsa, Chatterbox, Mitten, Pendosa, Clothespin, Stardust, Washer, Saucepan, Meat grinder, Chekushka, Coconut, Bazooka, Pipetka, Crash, Sandalia, Chunga-Changa.
It happens that animals get nicknames in honor of gods or heroes from ancient Greek, ancient Egyptian and other mythologies. These are Hector, Hercules, Athena, Zeus, Hera, Gilgamesh, Valkyrie, Nefertiti, Nymph, Shulamith, Aphrodite.
When choosing a name for a pet or pet you can focus on the breed.
If there is a desire to give a cat a nickname with meaning, then for this purpose Japanese words work well... So, if the animal was born in the spring, you can call it Haruko, which means "spring child" or Haru - "spring". The cat born in the fall can be called Akiko - "autumn child". A white cat can be called Yuki ("snow"), and a black cat - Miyako ("night child"). You can also name the animal Takara ("treasure"), Aiko ("beloved"), Shinju ("pearl"), Masuru ("victory"), or choose another nice-sounding Japanese word with a good meaning.
Thus, the choice of a name for a cat or a cat entirely depends on the desire and imagination of the owner. You can trust other owners and take an already existing beautiful or funny name, or you can independently come up with a unique name that only his animal will have.
When a cat appears in the house, I want her to have a beautiful sonorous name, and she will certainly respond to it. However, the simplest exercise of choosing a suitable nickname for an animal often becomes difficult for the owner and takes a lot of time. There are a great many options for names for a cat: from standard to cartoon or dictated by your own imagination. It remains only to decide which name is best suited to the new family member.
How a kitten remembers its name
Cats are able to readily respond to nicknames, which include hissing sounds. Experts (felinologists) dealing with the maintenance and breeding of cats advise choosing a nickname for the animal no longer than two or three syllables. Otherwise, it will be more difficult for the animal to remember.
Before choosing a name for a cat, you should observe how she behaves, what are the features of her character. It is possible that it is they who will help make the right choice in relation to the name.
A kitten will remember its name faster if it contains two or three syllables.
The animal will quickly learn to respond to the nickname given to it if it first gets acquainted with the sound of the owner's voice. You should constantly talk with the animal, adhering to an even tone in the conversation. When a kitten approaches the sound of a voice, it is necessary to caress him, stroking and praising him. If it's time to feed, you should give the baby food by calling him by name. In this case, you can stimulate its action by beckoning with your finger.
After about two weeks of such training, the kitten realizes the relationship between voice and feeding. Then you can move on to the next step to accustom your baby to your name:
- For the lesson, they choose a separate room and call the kitten by name.
- When he comes up, you need to stroke him and treat him to something tasty.
- Gradually, the amount of treats given is reduced, paying more attention to stroking the cat and not forgetting to praise her.
- In the course of these activities, the animal will get used to its name and will react to it.
When it responds to a nickname, and not to the call "kitty-kitty", you can be sure that the animal will not approach a stranger during a walk. The cat is able to remember its name well. If she does not respond to the voice of the owner, then this is more likely not from a lack of intelligence, but from harm.
Choosing a name for a girl kitten
You need to understand that a girl cat should choose a simple and sonorous name. This is due to the fact that a simple nickname given to a kitten will be easier for him to remember, moreover, it is easier for the owner to pronounce it. The sonority of the name is due to the peculiarities of its perception, since the kitten better learns a sonorous name, which includes several syllables.
To make the right choice of a name for a female kitten, it is good to be guided by such factors:
- external data: coat color, eye color;
- the breed of the animal, since a certain nickname can be suitable, for example, only for a Scottish or British cat;
- the character of the animal, manifested in grace, playfulness, laziness;
- the preferences of the cat herself, who is able to perceive only the initial three of all the sounds of her name;
- the presence of hissing, whistling sounds in the name;
- the age of the animal, which may not accept the nickname if it is chosen very late;
- nicknames that are common in this area.
A competent approach to the selection of a nickname for a four-legged girl can turn into an exciting process for the whole family. It is worth writing down all the names you like, and then narrowing this list by removing the most inappropriate nicknames from it. As a result, there will be a small list in which you will need to choose the most suitable name, easy to pronounce and remember.
