Crazy Cat Names
Ever cat is an individual, but finding different kitten names can be tough.
Crazy names for cats can be a nod in the direction of their wild ancestors, or scrappy temperament. But that doesn’t have to be the reason.
Because above all else, crazy kitten names are fun!
They can be descriptive, but they can also be funny or kind of inappropriate and totally un-cat-like!
So whether you’ve got a ferocious feline who’d suit some tiger kitty names, or a docile lap cat who has never raised a claw in her life. It actually doesn’t matter!
Her name is your choice, and we think crazy cat names make awesome kitty names for any of our furry pals.
