Weird and Wonderful Cat Names

Posted by: VickyBeckett on 16 Nov 2009

If you wondering what to name a new kitten or an older cat that has come to you without a name, here is a list of some of the most popular cat names in the world:

1. Dot
2. Blacky
3. Butterscotch
4. Cleopatra
5. Copycat
6. Norton
7. Mewy
8. Merlin
9. Topaz
10. Repunzel
11. Isis
12. Tuffles
13. Gretel
14. Pandora
15. Brushtail

But if you’re looking for something more original have a look at some of these…

1. Adonis
2. Meowth
3. Sir Purr
4. Chilli (the name of Sphynx as they’re so warm)
5. Count Dracula (perhaps a black Siamese?)
6. Chess Pieces (black and white cate?)
7. Chairman Meow (for the fatter cat)
8. Experiment (if you’re into breeding)
9. Falafel
10. Fluffernet
11. Long-John
12. Mustafa (or Mufasa from the Lion King)
13. Pinhead (self-explanatory)
14. Google (for the cat that you’re always searching for)
15. Valium (happy cat)

While most don’t answer to their names as dogs do, some cats have learnt to respond to their names. They are more likely to respond to whistles and the noise of the cat food or cluttering of the cat bowl though! They are also more likely to get used to the tone you speak to them in, so perhaps start by using the same tone of voice every time you call the little ones name.

What has your furry ball been christened? Let us know any weird and wonderful names and titles.
