What to name a cat or cat?

Choosing a nickname for a cat or cat is a pleasant, but often difficult task. It is necessary that the name of the pet is euphonic, reflects precisely its characteristics, you like it and be comfortable. In this article, you will find many interesting names and tips for choosing.

If you have just got a cat or a cat, use the useful and necessary recommendations for choosing a name.

• You shouldn't choose too complicated names for your pet. They seem beautiful at first, but in reality they turn out to be uncomfortable. If you have chosen a long and difficult to pronounce name for a cat or cat, most likely in everyday situations you will shorten it to a more convenient analogue.
• If you choose foreign names, first find out what the selected beautiful word means in the original language... Very often people choose euphonious foreign nicknames, but they can have a negative meaning. It will be unpleasant to find out the meaning of the word when both you and the animal have already got used to the name. Therefore, find out the translation in advance.
• Often a kitten is given a cute nickname, but when the animal grows up, it does not suit him at all. Keep in mind that the kitten will grow up and choose the appropriate nickname.
• For convenience, you can try to abstract from human names when choosing a nickname. First, other options can be much more interesting. Secondly, you will avoid embarrassing situations when you tell new acquaintances about your pet: often human names introduce a lot of confusion.
• Be original in choosing a nickname for your pet... There are a number of favorite names, but they won't make your pet unique. Calling the cat Vaska, and the cat Busya is worth it only if you have strong personal associations with these names.
• Sometimes you get a cat with a nickname. If you took a purebred kitten from a breeder, the nickname can be easily changed, because the kitten has not yet had time to get used to it. If, for example, you take an adult cat from friends or at a shelter, it is better to leave the previous nickname so that the animal does not retrain. It will be difficult to get an adult cat to respond to your given name when it has responded to something else all its life.
• You do not need to choose a name for your pet in advance if you have not seen it yet. You may come up with the perfect name, but it won't suit your particular cat or cat. When choosing a good nickname, you must first of all focus on the characteristics of your animal: on its appearance or on its character.

Very often, pets get their nicknames precisely because of one or another feature of their appearance. It is worth taking a closer look at the animal here - absolutely everyone has some kind of distinctive feature! Perhaps this is an original speck, bright eyes, or an unusually fluffy coat.

The black cat can be called Bagheera, Night, Blot, Pearl, Demeter, Ebony. For a black cat, Coal, Black or Baron are suitable. You can think for yourself about what you associate with black: if the name is associated specifically with you and some of your stories, it will only be better.

White female kittens are called Snowflake, Fluff, Winter, Vanilla, Salt, Blanca, Spark, Svetik. The following nicknames are suitable for male kittens: Snowball, Cloud, Sugar, White, Belek. White is a fairly neutral color, so other characteristics can affect the name as well.
