Cat Name Inspiration

If you don’t like what’s here, to get some inspiration for naming your fluffy buddy, allow the cat to help.

Observe its mannerisms, character, personality, behavior and general daily modes. Then, select some of your most favorite hip hop stars, songs and albums to see if there’s anything that fits your kitty.

Help Choosing The Right Name

You may notice there are some names not included that you think should be. For instance, Spinderella or Meghan the Stallion are not a part of the list at all. This is because these name have far too many syllables for a cat. Cats only respond to and recognize their name if it’s three syllables or less.

Now, this isn’t to say you can’t use these names for your cat. But, for bonding and command purposes, you want to keep it short and sweet. Therefore, you can name your cat “Spinderella,” but you’ll have to truncate it to something like “Spin.”

Conclusion

Giving your cat a hip hop name can be a fabulous way to characterize your cat while giving it something original. Try several names and see which one your kitty reacts to. It will let you know in its own way that it likes the name. Purring, rubbing, head butting or some other positive gesture will be excellent indicators.
