Congrats! Thanks to our list of cat Pokémon names, you’ve now evolved from loving pet parent to name-picking extraordinaire. But we can’t just leave you there – we’ve got some top tips to help you feel even more certain about choosing your cat's name.

If you’ve already welcomed home a fluffball, that’s amazing, but now take time and get a feel for their character and unique traits. For example, are they sassy and superb like Purrloin? Fun and fiery like Pyroar? There’s a Pokémon to suit almost any kitty.

You should also consider your cat’s physical attributes. Are they pure white? Then a name like Glaceon would be purr-fect. Or if they’re deliciously dark, then why not choose a Pokémon cat name like Umbreon? The choice is yours.

Most importantly, you simply need to pick a name that rolls off the tongue and resonates with your feline companion, whether you’re calling them over for dinner or whispering sweet nothings in their fluffy ears.

Prepping for an exciting trip? Travel with peace of mind and treat your furry feline to a luxurious staycation by welcoming a wonderful “cat sitter near me” into your home. Fur-get claustrophobic catteries, your feline friend can enjoy all the love and attention they need from their caring pet sitter.
