Our Top Tips for Naming Your Cat

You might think that whatever you call your cat, they won’t respond anyway. While that might be true, we’re going to explore the do’s and don’ts of naming your cat. We’ve also asked experts for their best advice to make sure our tips are top-notch.

The Kitty Naming Science

Experts say cats respond better to certain sounds. Cats hear high-pitched sounds better than low ones. That’s why names with high-pitched sounds (like ‘Fluffy’ or ‘Cookie’) work well. If your cat’s name is low-pitched, try adding an upward inflection at the end. If your cat still ignores you, a simple ‘pss pss pss’ might get their attention!

Keep the name simple. Choose a name with two syllables or less to avoid confusing your cat. Also, avoid names that sound like a friend or family member’s name.

Consider your cat’s personality or appearance. Look at their color or markings (like ‘Tigger’ for a tabby cat, ‘Shadow’ or ‘Smokey’ for black cats). Or pick a name based on their personality (we love ‘Houdini’ for escape artists). Spend some time with your cat, and the perfect name will come to you.

Lastly, be creative! You didn’t search for unique cat names to end up with ‘Luna’ or ‘Bella’ (though we love those names, they’re not the most unique). Think outside the box and choose a name that matches your cat’s one-of-a-kind personality.
