(Almost) every car has an honorary title, usually depending on their gender. These typically appear at the first part of the cat’s name, and serve as an easy way to identify them and their characteristics.

*'''Mx.:''' This title can be used in two ways. When a cat's sex is undetermined, the Mx. prefix can be used as a temporary placeholder title. Alternatively, some cats like [[Mx. Creamsicle]] use they/them despite their biological sex being determined, which is up the editor's discretion.

Line 24: Line 26:
* '''Food names:''' These are rarely used, with their most notable use being in the [[Soaring Cat|Soup club feeder]], where every cat except [[Grilled cheese|Grilled Cheese]] is named after soup. Other uses would be with kittens from the [[The Exploration Era|2024 Summer Kitten Explosion]], where a lot of the kittens were named after beans, such as [[Heinz]] and [[Pinto]]. Certain cats also have a food name alongside a real honorary title such as [[Mr. Egg]] and [[Mr. Bean]].

The main difference between this section and the previous is the usage of titles, where in the previous they were barely used in this one almost every single car has a title with very few exceptions.(Most of the examples used don’t have one due to the naming section originally being convinced into the absence of title sub-section)
