The nickname of a domestic cat, which corresponds to the well-known character in a movie or comic book, will sound quite interesting. Besides, external data can also play an important role, especially if the kitten has visual similarities with some cartoon celebrities.
- Garfield A widely known character in family comedy. Calling your pet with a similar name, the owner should understand that the similarity between the real and virtual animals should be significant. The fur of the domestic baby should match the red color of the cartoon character. By nature, the cat is simply obliged to be lazy and still make reckless actions.
- Basilio. Most often, cats of noble breeds are awarded this name. According to all the famous tales, the owner of this nickname was a cunning swindler. Accordingly, in the nature of the fluffy lump must be present notes of cunning.
- Boniface. A fairly well-known person who has survived to the present day since the 90s. His distinguishing feature is kindness. Accordingly, the carriers of this name should be affectionate, sweet and decent.
- Leopold. Pretty cute and very decent cat, loving beauty, purity. Unfortunately, not all cats can boast of quality data, but if you follow a well-known saying, it is possible that such a nickname will reveal the qualities of a cartoon character in a kitten.
- Simba Popular character of the famous cartoon. The character of the cartoon character is initially quite mild, and yet the baby shows stiffness of character and fortitude with age. Calling a kitten a nickname like this, the owner should understand that with age the baby will not necessarily become the king of animals.
- Sherkhan. The representative of evil in the most famous children's cartoon. To call your pet a similar nickname, it is desirable that the external data of the cat correspond to the external image of the lion.
In addition to the names of literary heroes and cartoon characters, cat breeders have a tendency to give their pets the nicknames of pets of famous people. It is believed that creative natures call their animals special and vivid names, among which it may turn out to choose the most suitable nickname for your baby. Among zoologists there is an interesting statement that a nickname that does not match the nature of the animal can make the kitten nervous and weakened. And indeed, the inconsistency of one’s own name cannot be transferred by any living creature. That is why the cat’s nickname should be in harmony with his temper. For example, a kitten with a playful character and mood can be called Bambi.
In addition, scientists recommend reading information about the similarity and compatibility of the animal’s nickname and owner’s name. Otherwise, conflicts with a fluffy pet may arise in the house. And in fact it is such that the cat perceives only the mistress, but does not allow her husband to come to her. In this case, the superstitious family is invited to turn to astrologers who can draw up an accurate picture of compatibility with the selected animal and offer a choice of the most suitable nickname. The same thing is said by zoologists who have long been engaged in the study of the cat family. They do not advise cat owners to call their pussies by such names as Tiger, Lion or Lynx. These nicknames diminish the self-esteem of the pet, which is why it can be lost in space.
Another important condition - the invented nickname should be to the liking of all family members., therefore, choosing a suitable name, it is necessary to involve all the residents of the house. The cat perfectly understands the emotions of people through their conversation. Increased intonation in the voice may indicate host irritation, and affectionate words cause the cat a sense of calm.
The same applies to the name of the animal: if it sounds rude, the pet is able to respond with a negative.
Rare and beautiful names
Most owners of purebred cats try to call their pets quite rare and unusual names. To select the most suitable nickname, the breeder should pay attention not only to the names of famous pets of media persons, but also to the pseudonyms of writers, inventors, famous artists, even kings of the past.

Some pedantry of the Japanese lies in the attention not only to the date of birth of the cat, but also to the daily interval. Cats born at night are called Miyako. The moon cats are firmly attached to the nickname Tsukiko.
