What do the colors symbolize in cats?

Interestingly, girls are usually born tricolored. This is how it happened genetically: for every 3 thousand tricolor cats there is 1 boy.

The base of the tricolor color is white. Such animals protect the house from an evil look, the evil eye, and bad people.

Black and gray spots indicate magical abilities. In the presence of white and red, dark magic becomes good. Gray and silver are the colors of the Moon and mystery. Spots of all shades of red: orange, red, golden, brown, beige - this is energy, creativity, intelligence, and sometimes help in finding a loss.

The special color of tricolor cats is tortoiseshell. The main colors are black and red in different shades with single white hairs: as if sunbeams were scattered all over the body. There is a belief that on land such cats protect from fires, and on water (on a ship) from wrecks.

Among the purebred cats, the three-color color is found in huge Maine Coons, fashionable short-haired British and American cats, bumpkin Persians, Neva cats, Scottish Folds, Manxes, Kuril and Japanese bobtails, Turkish Vans, exotics and melancholy Ragdolls.

I thought for a long time, looking at her, what name to give her, and I came up with: Dartanyashka. It should be noted that she somehow reminded me of the famous musketeer. Nimble, brave and dexterous, she climbed up the carpets and played pranks.

Choosing a name for your tricolor pet is a very interesting, exciting and responsible activity. And there is no doubt that the ingenuity shown by the owners of the cat will help find such a wonderful creature a worthy nickname that will be perfect for both small and adult animals.

A kitten can appear in the house for various reasons - as a gift from friends or relatives, or from the simple desire of one of the household members to have a furry friend. But besides the joy of communicating with him, some difficulties arise (mainly regarding upbringing and care). But the very first question is what to call a tricolor cat.

Names for calico cats

Most animals of this color combine three colors: white, red and black. And regardless of which color predominates, white is considered the main one.

In nature, it so happens that most of the owners of such amazing colors are cats. There are cases when such an unusual color occurs in cats, but due to serious genetic abnormalities, such an animal cannot have offspring.

This coat color in no way depends on the breed of the pet, and is quite often found in ordinary outbred animals.

The owners of such cats noticed the affectionate, playful, soft character of their tricolor pets. They also note their intelligence and agility, which are more pronounced than in cats of other colors.

Important: taking into account the above-mentioned features of tricolor cats, nicknames for them must also be special, which will properly emphasize their uniqueness.

Before proceeding directly to choosing a suitable name, you should pay attention to the following points:

1. take into account that the invented nickname should suit both a small kitten and an adult animal equally well (therefore, using too diminutive forms of the word will not be entirely appropriate);
2. there is no need to choose nicknames that are too long and difficult to pronounce - they are both inconvenient for the owners and poorly remembered by the animals;
3. pay attention to the presence of whistling sounds, the letters “s”, “ch”, “sch” (seals love them).

Some people choose to name their furbabies with names related to their breed. On the one hand, this looks quite natural (after all, there is a direct association), on the other hand, in this way the owner emphasizes the status and sophistication of his purr. Based on this criterion, you can choose one of the following names:

• Siddi;
• Dolly;
• Teyli.

Another common option is to tie it to the color of the animal - it’s convenient and easy to remember. But, since the cat is three-colored, you should start from the predominant color, for example:

• Snezhka, Belka, Luna, Zvezdochka, Alba, Perla - for predominantly white cats;
• Fox, Laura, Aliska - for cats with a lot of red color;
• Bagheera, Find, Panther, Choco, Chara, Shadow, Tar - if most of the fur is black.

The third most popular option in choosing a name for an animal is to tie it to its character. Sometimes it is easy to determine it within a few hours of observation, but there are times when it even takes more than one day. But, caring owners always notice the distinctive character traits of their pet - a cheerful and playful disposition, a calm quiet person, or a fidgety and mischievous person. Depending on this, you can come up with a name, for example:

• Lucky, Happy;
• Sonya;
• Weasel;
• Venus;
• Lynx;
• Fury;
• Jazzy;
• Olympia;
• Princess.

Nicknames for tricolor kittens boys

Male kittens of this color are quite rare in nature, so the name should properly emphasize this feature.

This color is also called tortoiseshell. The main coat colors are white, red and black. However, when mixing them, light brown, chocolate, or chocolate stains may appear.

The options for choosing a name may be the following:

• Terry;
• Noir;
• Agate;
• Angel (Enji);
• Belik;
• Shoko;
• Ashley;
• Onyx;
• Ryzhik.

Choosing the appropriate option based on your pet’s character is a simple and convenient way to name it. First of all, you need to determine his character, and based on this, choose a name. The most common of them may give you some thought:

• Shustrik, Vulcan, Pirate - for very inquisitive furry creatures with a special character;
• Tikhon, Angel - for very quiet, affectionate and calm cats;
• Count, Baron, Charm, Lucifer, Mot - for those with a special temperament.

When choosing what to name a tricolor boy kitten, you can pay attention to the breed or appearance of the kitten. Name options can be quite simple, like:

• Ushastik, Usatik;
• Fluffy.

Name after a famous character

Another way to name your new furry friend is after a famous character. It suits both boys and girls. This could be a movie or book hero, a favorite comic book or cartoon character, or a famous actor or singer. The following options will help you think about the topic:

• Berry (Berrymore);
• Lina, Jolie (Angelina);
• Madonna;
• Grimm;
• Elsa;
• Garfield;
• Assol.

Very original owners can name their pet, for example, a car brand, or a favorite perfume, etc. With such a nickname, the cat will definitely be unique:

• Bucks;
• Armani;
• Chanel;
• Lexus;
• Cake;
• Chips;
• Shrek.

Important: when choosing what to name your tricolor pet, you need to approach this seriously and carefully weigh all the options, since the little fluffy will very quickly get used to his new nickname.

As you can see, choosing a name for your little pet is quite an exciting thing, you can show imagination and ingenuity, but at the same time it is responsible, because it should suit the pet (both in childhood and in adulthood).

However, with the appearance of a new furry friend in the house, its owner has a lot of new worries and responsibilities, because the most important thing is that the animal grows healthy, so you need to monitor its nutrition, visit the veterinarian, provide it with proper care, and it, in turn, will give you his tenderness and affection.

Safety precautions or what not to call a pet.

I don’t argue, it’s fun to name your cat: Shish kebab or Pelmen, Mouse or Pomoika, Pig or Piglet…. Yes, it’s funny, cool, but if you think about it, our animals, in many ways, are an expression of our attitude towards life, towards ourselves, towards people, and towards everything! After all, if a person is cruel to animals, then most likely he is cruel to those around him (to loved ones or even strangers). And if you also name your (unfortunate) animal: Creepy, Reptile, Demon, Screwdriver (alcoholic mixture), Gnaw, Lace, Work (from the word “slave”), Kronos - (and imagine, some of their cats also call their cats with such nicknames) , so, in this case, you don’t expect anything good, either from an animal or from life. Why is that? Yes, because everything that surrounds us quite strongly and actively influences us, both inanimate and naturally animate... Well, if you call your cat, for example: the cool nickname “Chaos” - then you will get (believe me), in a relationship, in business, in life, there is only chaos and confusion, etc., etc. So don’t call your mustachioed and tailed ones: Smog, Ash, Tyrant, Brawler, Seth (desert god), Lucifrif, Godzilla, Wasabi, Sprat, Whiskas or even Bastard (!) - there is no need, no need, to spoil your beloved aura, karma, your body, your soul and of course your beautiful, bright, wonderful life. And you should also not name your pet in honor of your friend or any other person, this will not bring anything good, neither to you, nor to the pet, nor to the person in whose honor the nickname is.
