When a small kitten appears in the house, all family members have an interesting task - to come up with a name for the pet. As you know, animals are our smaller brothers, which means that a new little younger brother (or sister) cannot do without a name. A nickname is just as important for cats as a name is for a person; the fate of an animal can depend on the correct choice of a name.

Owners of purebred cats have limited options in choosing a name, because when buying a pet his passport is issued, which indicates his nickname, reflecting the name of the club or kennel, the names of the parents or other factors. Calling an animal with such a long name at home is problematic, so it is reduced to shorter derived forms. The original form of the name will not be remembered by the pet itself, and the owner will very quickly get tired of calling the animal in this way.

When choosing a nickname for a pet or pet, it is necessary to select a word consisting of two or three syllables, so that it is easier for the cat to remember it, and containing hissing sounds in the composition, in particular - sounds "s" and "k"... Cats are very sensitive to them, it is no coincidence that they all, regardless of nicknames, respond to "kitty-kitty". In general, felines respond best to a name consisting of two to three syllables. Experts say that cats generally perceive only the first three sounds, they do not distinguish the rest and practically do not understand. If these sounds include hissing consonants, the animal will quickly remember its name and learn to respond to it.

The meaning of the cat's name will entirely depend on the owner's imagination.

How names are chosen for cats and cats

Most often names for cats and cats are selected as follows:

There are often cases when the owners call cats or cats in honor of politicians, sports stars, cinema, pop stars or other famous people. For example, cats can be called Chernomyrdin, Obama, Barack, Messi. Cats are called Madonna, J. Lo, Monroe, Mata Hari and other similar names.

Often come up with very unusual names for cats and cats, in such cases the meaning of the nickname is understandable only to the owners of the animal - Sorcha, Mush, Shusha, Mumun, Nola, etc.

There are often cases when the names for female cats are derived from the nicknames of male cats. This happens when the owners believe that they have a male kitten and give him the appropriate nickname, and after a while it turns out that this is a female kitten. These include the options Fluff - Cannon, Simak - Simka, White - Squirrel and the like.

Cats and cats can call by human names: Vaska, Vanka, Marusya, Lizka, Alexandra, Valeria, Yana, Julia, Alina, etc. Names can be both domestic and foreign: Angelica, Vanessa, Leila, Veronica, Arabella, Angelina, Vanessa, Virginia, Justina, Juliet, Ginger, Jessica, Isabella, Mariana, Mirabelle, etc.

Human fantasy is limitless, and as a result, felines can be rewarded with fun and funny nicknames... Known options such as Belyash, Cervelat, Dog, Zaliposha, Barbatsutsa, Chatterbox, Mitten, Pendosa, Clothespin, Stardust, Washer, Saucepan, Meat grinder, Chekushka, Coconut, Bazooka, Pipetka, Crash, Sandalia, Chunga-Changa.

It happens that animals get nicknames in honor of gods or heroes from ancient Greek, ancient Egyptian and other mythologies. They are Hector, Hercules, Athena, Zeus, Hera, Gilgamesh, Valkyrie, Nefertiti, Nymph, Shulamith, Aphrodite.

When choosing a name for a pet or pet you can focus on the breed.

If there is a desire to give a cat a nickname with meaning, then for this purpose japanese words work well... So, if an animal was born in the spring, you can call it Haruko, which means "spring child" or Haru - "spring". The cat born in the fall can be called Akiko - "autumn child". A white cat can be called Yuki ("snow"), and a black cat - Miyako (" night child"). You can also name the animal Takara ("treasure"), Aiko ("beloved"), Shinju ("pearl"), Masuru ("victory"), or choose another nice-sounding Japanese word with a good meaning.

Thus, the choice of a name for a cat or a cat depends entirely on the desire and imagination of the owner. You can trust other owners and take an already existing beautiful or funny name, or you can independently come up with a unique name that only his animal will have.

Usually, choosing a name for an animal is a difficult and long-suffering process. Especially when you are trying to choose an original kitsch. After all, you can't really call a Siamese cat Vaska, and a collie - Bobik.

Consider that the owners of non-pedigree animals are lucky - they do not go to exhibitions, and their little friend is unpretentious - at least Vaska, even Motka. True, there is a moment here - you still want to give your pet an interesting name. And then you look into dictionaries (into mythological, foreign, etc. - which ones you can find!), You shovel in your memory the names of all the colorful literary heroes, ask your friends for advice. In the end, you choose some non-peasant name, for example, Don Donno Divino (there was a case, there was such an unfortunate cat), and for some reason all the household calls Don Donno Divino simply - Cat, Kisya, and in some cases - Scicun .. ...

Therefore, the names of pets must be chosen from the point of view of practicality. It is important not only that the name suits the animal, it is also important that it is convenient to pronounce it. For this, words consisting of one or two syllables are ideal, preferably with hissing or whistling sounds (most animals react to them flawlessly).

How to choose suitable name for pet?

1) Method of observation - according to this method, you do not prepare a nickname in advance, but, observing the animal, choose a name that suits him, so for some time the pet remains unnamed.

Observation criteria:

• pet's appearance - coat color, color features, body shape, limbs, etc .: Ginger, Barbel, Ugolyok, Sharik, Fat, Khvostun;
• behavior and habits - activity, attitude to food, sounds made, etc .: Piskun, Thunder, Glutton, Skakun;
• character and temperament: Darling, Laska, Mischievous, Shustrik, Boss.

2) Advance method - as the name implies, the name is chosen in advance.

Sources of names can be as follows:

• films and literary works - both animal names and human names are used: Leopold, Garfield, Tom, Rex, Stitch
  (this source is associated with a way of observing - first we observe, and then we discover that the pet is similar in character, for example, to Karabas);
• lists of Orthodox names or simply lists of names - rare and outdated names are often used, often diminutive of them: Anfisa, Zoya, Savely, Sonya, Dusya;
