42 Food-Inspired Cat Names to Call Your Sweet (or Spicy!) Kitty
Food-Inspired Names that Are as Sweet (or Spicy) as Your Kitty
Look to your kitchen for inspiration to name your kitten.
You love food, you love your cat, so it makes sense to name your furry friend after one of your favorite bites. (Especially now that so many of us have been staying home and baking bread for the past year.) These options are perfect for any type of feline, whether they're on the friendly or aloof side. If your cat has black or brown fur, you'll like the names Brownie, Cocoa, or Chip. (Like chocolate chip!) For kitties with an orange coat, Cinnamon, Clementine, or Paprika are perfect. And for your black and white cat, the best choice, of course, is Oreo. There are plenty more options on the list, so make sure you go through them all.

Food Cat Names
The nice thing about these options is they work for all breeds, all sexes, and all ages of cats. If you're having a hard time finding the perfect name for your pet, think about which foods you like best. Are you a cheese lover? Maybe you should call your kitty Brie or Colby Jack. Are you always snacking on fruit? Think about naming your feline Cherry, Clementine, Fig, or Plum. All of these options are unique and fun, so no matter what you choose, you can't go wrong.
