When it comes to naming pets, people tend to be predictable and keep things simple. There is nothing wrong with keeping pet names straightforward, but it's a lot more fun to get creative, isn't it?

For every black cat in the world named Shadow and every white-pawed kitten named Mittens or Boots, there is a plethora of more unique, silly, absurd, and fascinating names that people have given to their cats. What better place to get an idea of how creative cat naming can be than the Petfinder app?

The Petfinder mobile app helps users hoping to rescue an animal search for adoptable pets by shelter or rescue, breed, size, and more. They are partnered with thousands of shelters across North America and offer pet adoption options for people in search of cats, dogs, and other animals like rabbits, birds, fish, and even horses!

Potential pet profiles feature details on adoptable pets, including bios written by shelter volunteers and employees, and most importantly: a picture and a name. It's much easier to find the right pet to adopt when you can see them, after all. More importantly, it's a lot easier for us to giggle and gush over cat names when we have a whole app to browse the absurd and silly choices humans make when naming their cats.
