Conclusion

After you choose a name for your new cat, use it to register your cat’s microchip or get an ID tag to keep them from getting lost. Also, always call your cat by their name! Research indicates that cats can learn to recognize their own names. Your feline Captain Marvel may never help defeat Thanos, but they can still come running when they hear you call, especially if you sweeten the deal with treats.
