Great news! You’ve finally finished our paw-some list of cat pun names. Whether you’re relieved it’s over or your face hurts from giggling, we hope you found some ins-paw-ration for naming your new kitty. Still unsure? Don’t worry, we always have extra advice for our pet-loving family.

Before picking a name, we recommend taking time to understand your feline friend’s character and unique traits. This should help you decide how best to name them. For example, are they magic and mysterious like Harry Pawter? Enigmatic and wondrous like Meowna Lisa? There’s a punny cat name to suit any kitty.

You should also consider your cat’s appearance. If they’re a delicious chocolate brown, then a name like Kit-Kat might be just right. Or, if they're drop-dead gorgeous (aren’t they all) then a funny name like Purrfect 10 would work. Don’t forget to get inspired by your favorite movies or food, so you can always pick a name like The Great Catsby or William Shakespaw, depending on your hobbies or interests.

Most importantly, you need a punny cat name that rolls off the tongue and resonates with you and your kitty. Crucially, you don’t want to feel too embarrassed when calling them over for dinner or introducing them to your friends and family. Good luck!
