Kittens come in lots of shades of grey. Whether you are brining home a blue, lilac or silver grey kitten, or adopting an adult grey cat, there are plenty of ways to get inspired. You can theme their name around synonyms for grey, or grey objects or even the weather! How about your favorite grey haired actor? The choices are endless, so we’ll help you to narrow them down.

Choosing Grey Cat Names

Grey cats are often seen as being mysterious as well as beautiful! And each one is completely unique. In fact, one particularly great way to choose between all the options for grey cat names is to closely study your feline sidekick’s unique coat color. Is she a stunning slate grey? Or perhaps a soothing blue gray? Is the shade of grey in her coat more on the light side, in the mid range or on the dark side? Is she silvery or maybe more dusky gray? Perhaps she even has a beautiful tabby pattern!

Grey cat names can be funny, cute, and completely unique! ‘Gray’ is a more common spelling in the US, but ‘grey’ is more common in the UK. Grey cat names can be funny, cute, and completely unique!

Choosing the Best Grey Cat Names

Choosing the very best name for your grey fur baby is not an easy task for most cat parents! After all, you will be using that name many times per day for many years to come to interact with your precious pet cat! If you have managed to narrow down your choices to just a handful of options, but you still have no idea which single name to choose, you can try this little experiment to see if it helps.

Write down your top name choices for grey cats on a sheet of paper. Next, practice calling your new cat using each name. Notice if your cat seems to respond more enthusiastically or more quickly to one name over the others.

You may want to try this experiment over the course of a day or two to be sure you are reading your cat’s responses accurately. But most of all, just remember that your cat will likely be taking the first few days to get acclimated to her new home anyway, so you have plenty of time to ponder all of your choices for names for grey cats and pick the one that is simply purrfect for your new little fluffy love!

            Dog food lacks Tarmine. An enzyme cats can’t produce alone. Feeding cats only dog food will it is added to cat food.

        Dog food is not good for cats as it does not have tourine in it that is essential for cat health.

            A little occasional dog food won’t harm a cat. It’s only when it’s a lot of their diet, especially for indoor cats who can’t supplement their diets by hunting, and for kittens whose eyes and brains are still forming, so they need lots of taurine.

    Rescued 2 kittens, brother and sister, (I think, since the vet couldn’t tell the sex yet becuz they are about 5 weeks) one is black with little white markings on the feet and a stripe down the tummy, and the other is a gray (possible tabby). Thought the black one was the boy, but now we think the Grey one is the boy. Names were Storm and Merlin. But if opposite sexes, then the Grey boy will be Stormie Majick, and the Lil black girl will be Aurora Satin or Raven Aurora.

    Adopted a precious gray boy with white chin, tummy, and feet. His name from the rescue was Miso, at the adoptions they called him Felix. So we named him Miso Felix. But, can’t decide what to call him for short!

    Back in my ballet days I had two cats, Misha and Ninski. Now I like people names so I have a Henry, Harry, Dottie, Winston, Tom and Bob. And Misha the 2nd. I’ve Also had two Gingers, Sassy and Sweetie. I’ve had ALOT of cats through the years. I recently lost Diamond. She was my loving, funny encourager. Very difficult to get overasing.

    I adopted a 16 week old gray kitten with the tag name, Frederick, I knew that was not going to work so, I watched him for a few weeks. Today, I’m naming him Junior after my older gray cat named Pootie Tat, but It will be Junior Bones (because he looks so skinny (the joke will probably be on me.) HE is so adorable.

    After debating for a while about getting a cat, fate has stepped in and made my mind up for me whether I’m ready or not. As I walked back home from volunteering today I came across a box with 4 kittens with a sign that read “free kittens”. Among the all grey with white spots kittens there was a male that screamed “take me with you”, so I did. Don’t know what to name it yet, (hence what got me here) but my dog is thrilled and I’m looking forward to seeing how this friendship pans out.

    We have had Persian cats since we retired. Right now we have had two: Simba is golden orange; Max is a big Brown patch tabby. We are getting another Persian in 6 more weeks. Persians stay with the mother for 12 weeks. He is grey…..please suggest a name that comes to mind for a grey male Persian. Thank you. We have used these names for our Persians over the years: BlueBear, Rascal, Miss Violet, Red Prince,

    I had a gray cat with gray ears, gray nose, gray fur, and gray paws. He was a lovely cat and because of his all gray coloring, I named him “Pewter”. He liked his name and came to me when I called his name.

    We have had two grey cats–first one was named Seal for the cat in Patricia MacLachlan’s book Sarah Plain and Tall (and the TV movie with Glenn Close and Christopher Walken) Our 2nd cat was named Selkie–a tribute to Seal.
