Think about how it sounds as a prefix

Your cattery name will appear before every cat's registered name — e.g. "Moonridge Coppergold Stardust". Say it aloud and check it flows.

Consider international legibility

Judges, buyers, and registrars worldwide will read your name. Avoid characters or sounds that are hard to pronounce in other languages.

Avoid trends that date quickly

Your cattery name will be yours for decades. Names inspired by timeless themes (nature, mythology, geography) age better than current trends.

Your cattery needs an online presence

Feline Studio gives your cattery a public gallery page where buyers can browse your cats and send inquiries — no separate website needed.

Short names give you more room

FIFe has a total character limit on a cat's registered name. A shorter cattery prefix leaves more space for the individual cat's name.

Look at existing catteries for inspiration — but be distinctive

Browse FIFe-registered catteries in your breed to understand naming conventions, then make sure yours stands out.

How cattery names work

Your cattery name becomes a prefix for every cat you breed — it appears on every pedigree and identifies your breeding line to judges and buyers worldwide. Once registered with FIFe through your national breed club, the name is exclusively yours.
