If you got the cat by accident, and you don't know its old name, “ask” the cat itself. To do this, refer to her with different names and observe her reaction to different combinations of sounds. From those sounds that the cat will pay attention to, make up a nickname. However, if you want to name the pet according to your taste, observe the cat's behavior or pay attention to its appearance.
Instructions
Step 1
Felinologists believe that a cat hears only the first three sounds of its name. Therefore, it is desirable that the nickname begins with the sounds "s", "w", "k", "h" - whistling and hissing sounds best attract the attention of the feline family. Names containing these sounds are better for pets to remember and get used to them faster.
Step 2
Black cat can be called Black, velor sphinx - Velvet, light red - Peach. Take a closer look at the pet's appearance, its color and eye color, and this will tell you the name.
Step 3
Often, after a closer acquaintance, even the most beautiful names are transformed into nicknames that are more suitable for pets. If you have an adult cat, you can immediately observe its behavior and name the animal accordingly. Behavioral features gave rise to such nicknames as Battle, Sonya, Murka, Lodyr.
Step 4
The nickname can be chosen based on the breed. For example, representatives of breeds with a long history, such as Persian, British, Cornish Rex, are logically called names from Roman mythology - Aquilon, Bacchus, Venus. Ancient Egyptian names are suitable for Abyssinian cats and sphinxes - Anuket, Aker, Ajib.
Step 5
It is believed that cats can heal their owners. There is a popular belief that ginger cats treat specifically heart diseases - just lying on the chest of the owner. Therefore, if you believe in the healing powers of your pet, you can christen it Balm, etc.
Step 6
The pet can also be named after your favorite cartoon characters, movies, books. For example, the Sphynx, which has bare, folded skin, large ears, and a long nose, is well suited to the name Kreacher. That was the name of the house elf from the Harry Potter epic, which, according to the author's description, resembles a sphinx cat. Ginger cats are often called Garfields, in honor of the hero of the cartoon of the same name.
