Owning a pet comes with the purrivilege of naming them anything your heart desires. Whether you opt for a familiar feline name like Fluffy, a weirdly playful name like Socks, or even a straightforward human-esque name like Fred, the litterary license is all yours! The proud hoomans below, however, have taken creativity to a new level, bestowing their feline friends with names that are nothing short of catastrophically silly.

Imagine calling out Snowknuckle at dinner time, or telling your friends about the latest story of your fluffy feline named Vacuum Cleaner. Yes, these names are real, and they're purrfectly hilarious. Topping the charts of creativity in our book is none other than Ozzy Pawsborne. My first bonded pair of cats were named Sushi and Bernard, which I thought were goofy names, but those are nothing compared to the dup Beef and Leaf below. If you're in the mood for a good laugh, check out the rest of these names below.
