I know that all the female cat owners on this site are known as meowmy but what would a male cat owner be known as? The only pun for this I have come up with is "pawpaw". Anyone else have any suggestions or comments?

Yeah, we need a good moniker for us guys. I've used "cat dad" but that's not nearly as cool as "meowmy".

Cat Dude
Cat Daddy
Furball Father
PawPaw
Moggie Man

To tell you the truth - I'm not that keen on meowmy, I have used it but not much and I prefer to use mom - for our US friends - mum for UK'er so I would probably use Dad / Daddy for UK or Pop / Popa for US

Pawpaw is a good generic name for a pet dad, though purrpa/purrpaw seems to be used the most.

But it is up the the person to decide what to use.

I like the purpaw because I call my dad my cat's grandpa and I call him pawpaw to her but my niece calls him that too . I like the Kittypop! but its simply funny I don't think it matters because either way you are basically saying you love your kitties and that's what matters that you love them enough to look at them like they are the babies they are.

& in this part of Texas, people with a strong accent actually sound like they're calling their fathers 'Diddy" when they say 'Daddy"...
