No one in life wants to be lonely, so people love, create families, make friends, and give birth to pets. The variety of our smaller brothers is very huge, but today we will talk about cats, or rather, about striped cats.
The main question is, of course, what to call a little fluffy miracle, because as you call a ship, it will sail like that. The choice of nicknames is influenced by several factors: whether you want a simple name or a more creative, and maybe noble, to emphasize the dignity of your pet, and perhaps an unusual one. Maybe you will be the first to call a cat by such a name that cats were not previously called in principle, or your imagination will be able to do something new from a common name by adding words, changing letters or abbreviations.
Usually the name comes to mind immediately when you see for whom it is intended. Let's consider the nicknames for tabby cats.

- By name. Murka, Simon, Dinah, Bill, Peppy, Emma, Barsik, Barboskin, Valentin, Zhuzha, Miroslav, Vaska, Manya, Marcel, Maximilian, Marquis.
