If you got a cat accidentally, and her old name is not known to you, "ask" it the cat. For this purpose address her with different names and observe its reaction to different combinations of sounds. Make a nickname of those sounds to which the cat will pay attention. However if you want to call the pet to the taste – observe behavior of a cat or pay attention to her appearance.
Instruction
1. Felinologists consider that the cat hears only the first three sounds of the name. Therefore it is desirable that the nickname began on sounds "with", "highways", "to", "h" - the whistling and hissing sounds best of all draw attention of the cat family. Pets remember the names containing these sounds better and quicker get used to them.
2. It is possible to christen a black cat the Black, velors sphinx – the Velvet, light-red - the Peach. Take a closer look at appearance of the pet, at his color and color of eyes, and it will prompt you a name.
3. Often after more close acquaintance even the most beautiful names are transformed to the nicknames which were more suitable pets. If you get an adult cat, it is possible to observe her behavior at once and to call an animal respectively. Behavioural features generated such nicknames as Boeva, Sonya, the Cat, the Idler.
4. The nickname can be picked up and relying on breed. For example, representatives of breeds with centuries-old history, such as Persian, British, kornish-rex, it is logical to call by the names from the Roman mythology – Akvilon, Bakhus, Venus. Abyssinian cats and sphinxes will suit Ancient Egyptian names – Anuket, Aker, Agib.
5. It is considered that cats can treat the owners. In the people the belief goes that red cats treat specifically heart diseases – just lying on a breast at the owner. Therefore if you trust in curative forces of the pet, you can christen him Balm, etc.
6. It is possible to call the pet also in honor of favourite heroes of animated films, cinema, books. For example, the sphinx which differs in naked folded skin, large ears and a long nose quite will suit a name Kikimer. So called the house elf from the epic about Harry Potter who according to the description of the author, reminds a cat of breed a sphinx. Red cats often call Garfildami, in honor of the hero of the eponymous animated film.
