Thoughts to ponder

What's in a name? Does your cat's name speak to her true personality? Do you have an extrovert tabby named Tiger or perhaps one with the air of a diva named Sassy? How about a truly feminine cat who is always immaculately groomed named Kitty?

Naming your cat can be a fun, reflective and interactive process to share with friends and family. When choosing a name, consider the types of traits and mannerisms of your cat. Is there a funny or memorable story behind how your cat found you?

Finally, a name should ideally be no more than one to two syllables. This makes it easy to pronounce and animals respond better to short names.

California Paws, San Francisco's trusted name in cat care has taken care of hundreds of cats over the last 10 years. The most popular name encountered for a female cat has been Zoe.
