Thank fluff, it is Sunday and we still have one more day to decompress from the maelstrom of the week. And as usual, we are fully stocked with feline funnies of the furriest quality, to keep you entertained and hanging with your favorite felines all weekend long. Today we are kicking back with a hilarious cat video from the Cal Poly Cat Program, which is a student led organization helping cats find their forever homes, and as anyone who has adopted from a shelter will know, cat shelters like to come up with some furry funny names for their feline residents.

So find yourself a cozy spot to curl up in, and get ready for some wacky feline name inspiration from some of the feline world's best, and worst named cats. Just avoid viewing this next to your facetious feline, as you risk offending them with the absolutely clawful names these fluffy felines have to live with every day.

    The pawfect names does not exis…unless you are a nommy nommy looking kitty who is called Wonton! This crispy and crunchy fella is deserving of going home with someone right this second and being brought straight to the kitchen to have his pick of sauce that he should be dipped in. So much feline deliciousness in one package, it is almost too much to handle!

    c4everglass 11w I work at an animal shelter and the names we have are ridiculous, and some are for a reason. We have a dog named Dwayne Johnson because he ate a rock, a dog named Voltage because he pooped out a battery, and at one point we had a kitten named Ancient Dragon Lansseax

    shirosakikazu 11w Ran a cat shelter for about a decade when I was younger. Weirdest names we had were "Eenie meenie minie moe" and the whole litter was only named that because we were rushing them and their mama to the vet for a quick checkup and needed names! Being someone who works in a cat shelter means coming up with wacko names and vibing with it.
