Tips for picking a name
Maybe you’re thinking of picking a long name for your cat. Remember you’ll need to call your cat multiple times a day, so maybe a shorter name is easier. Also keep in mind that the average life expectancy of a cat is 12 – 18 years and you should probably pick a name that stands the test of time.
You should also look at your cat’s character. After all, there’s a reason why Garfield is way more popular as a name for fat red cats than as a name for skinny Sphynx cats.
The most important thing is that you pick a name that feels right to you. Every cat deserves a pretty name!
