Cats themselves are weapons and should be handled responsibly otherwise nonlethal injuries are inevitable. Therefore, weapon names for cats are just perfect.
Weapon names for cats are appropriate for a few reasons. Cats have been in battlefields all along the history. Ancient Egyptians even lost a war because of cats when Persians decided to carry cats in front of them during the siege of Pelusium thinking that the Egyptians wouldn’t shoot their arrows in fear of hurting such a sacred animal. Guess what? Persians were right and according to Heredotus, while 50,000 Egyptian soldiers died that day, the number of Persian soldiers died was only 7,000.
In many wars including the WWI and the WWII cats were the source of morale in the trenches and people even tried to use them as assassins and saboteurs (often, this did not end up well for them). In my opinion using an animal in war is just brutal and unforgiveable but we are human, we use whatever serves us and don’t think about anything else. Other lives don’t even matter to us. Unfortunately, this is the ugly truth.
However, using animals in wars and causing their deaths is not the same thing as giving them weapon names. Since weapon names for cats don’t have to be real weapons, I included some fictional weapons to the list. The categories for weapon names for cats are as follows:
- Fictional and Real Manufacturer and Weapon Names For Cats
- Weapon Parts, Accessories & Terms
- Names of Fictional and Historical Marksman
- “Occupations” That Use Weapons
Let’s see if we can find the perfect name for your new feline friend.

What is a list of weapon names for cats without a few famous gunslingers or comic book characters who doesn’t miss their targets?
