Tips for Choosing the Perfect Name
- Keep it short: Names with 1-2 syllables are easier for pets to recognize.
- Consider their personality: Choose a name that reflects your pet’s unique traits.
- Avoid common commands: Names that sound like commands (e.g., "Kit" vs. "Sit") can confuse your pet.
- Test it out: Say the name out loud to see if it feels right and if your pet responds to it.
- Think long-term: Choose a name that will still suit your pet as they grow older.
