Christmas Day means many in Hume and Whittlesea will get gifted puppies or kittens. If you’ve opened up your presents and a furry friend is on your doorstep, here are some tips for choosing the best name for your new pet.
* Does the name carry well when you call it out?
* Consider two-syllable names that are easier to hear for our pets.
* Have a few names ready and see which one your pet best suits.
* Choose a name that will suit your pet as they age.
