How to Name Your Cat This name is going to stick with your cat for the rest of their life, so choosing one can be overwhelming. First, don’t rush into it. This is an important decision, and you can think about it for as long as you need to make sure it’s right. If you want to take a few weeks and see if the name fits your cat’s personality before assigning it to them, that’s better than frequently changing their name. Let your cat get used to the name that you decide on permanently. First, consider your cat’s appearance. This list talks about the best names for orange cats, but you can also choose one that isn’t related to their coloring. The choice is yours. Also, you’re going to be saying this name out loud, likely in front of other people. You don’t want the name to be offensive or embarrassing. What might seem funny at the time may not still be funny 3 years later when you have the name called out to you at the vet’s office. Finally, don’t overcomplicate the name. One or two syllables are enough for your cat to be able to differentiate the sound from others. Anything longer and your cat may not be able to learn their name.
