The Funniest Names for Cats

Knowing the terror that cats have of water, a very funny way to name your new friend is ironically a mockery of this funny relationship they have with water. So you can choose sailor names such as Captain Pugwash, Cabin Boy, Seamen or Sailor.

In case you have a female cat, good choices would be Droplet, River or Jelly-girl. These would be perfect names for cats. But if you want something more sailing-inspired then you can also choose names directly linked to the world of boats, for example Stern, Bow, Anchor, etc.

Other funny names for cats are those that designate some qualities of the animal, for example if the cat has very long fur, stains or anything that sets them apart. These characteristics can serve to help you find an original name.

Thus, in the case of male cats you can opt for Grins or Cotton Ball if your cat has long hair. Consider names that refer to the color of the coat, for example, Darky or Ginger (if they have a orange coat). You can also call the cat Cloud or Sugar Puff (If they are white) or, if it is dark, you can call the cat Night Whisper or Black Jack.

In case you have a female cat, you can choose to give the cat similar names to those we have mentioned above, because they are unisex, or you can better specify their gender by calling a female cat Misty or Pearl (if white), and so on and so forth.

There is nothing funnier and more different than to call your cat a completely original name that has nothing to do with the cat or with their characteristics. In this sense, it is very funny to try names of other animals for example, bear, monkey, puppy, Orangutan, Lion, mouse, etc. It is one of the funnies ways you can name a cat.

Another idea is to name your cat with the name of a character that you like or that is important to you for example Homer Simpson, Coco Chanel, John Lennon, Marilyn Monroe, Frida Kahlo, etc. You can opt for real people who have been part of history or characters from cartoons or movies.

In addition to deciding how to call your new friend, it is important to know some of the basic care rules that you will need in order to look after your pussy. We will give you some tips to help you introduce the animal into your family.
