Changing the Names of Kittens

RE: Changing the Names of Kittens By Kathy in colorado (Guest Post) If you adopted these kitties they may not like their old names anyway because they were given up by those people. They may have bad feelings about their former people and would enjoy a totally new start.

I mean sometimes people take in an abandonned animal that probably already had a name and new owner gives a new name.

I think they learn that that's what YOU call them! It took a little bit for them to get used to (as with everything else around the house) but they all respond to their new names just fine.

One more name would hardly be any different.

I always felt it was giving all a fresh start!

You don't think so? Consider.. a proud owner calls the new kitty a grand sounding name like my own cat Grania (an Irish name) but she now answers to Bunny, Pie, Pretty girl, Babushka, Minch, 'Well, I guess you get my drift! It's the sound of your voice they get to know, and the way you talk to them.

I think cats listen more to their owner's voice, because I had a special whistle and call for her, it got so that my MIL's birds repeat it, even after she has passed on for two years!

Just talk to them and use the new names as often as possible until they get used to it. I have known people to change the names of animals they have rescued without problems.
