The very first cat I ever owned (or, rather, who owned me) was a beautiful white female with an extra toe on each front paw (which I now know is called polydactyl). I was just five years old. My parents would not let me keep her indoors, and sadly, she was stolen from her outdoor cage one night. I named her Muffy, but I can’t remember what was the significance of that name. However, from then on, whenever I speak of or think of white cats, Muffy is the first to come to my mind.
A cat’s name can say a lot about them. It can be descriptive, of their physical appearance or personality. It can be in memory of someone or some other animal who has passed on. People name their cats all sorts of things for all sorts of reasons. It is important, therefore, to choose a name that means something to you, and hopefully one that has something to do with the cat as well. Here, we will look at some of the most common, most unique and most unusual white cat names.
