your pets name?
 
So i'm just curious as to what people have named their pets and if their is a reason to the name?

My kitty is named Georgie and I called her that after Curious George (the monkey) cause she gets into EVERYTHING! She's very curious *nods*

In the past we had 3 main coons (biggest domestic cat) and we called them Zeus, Hercules and Xena! :-D

and we had two austrlian mists! And they were called Tyson (after mike tyson cause he use to suck on your ear) and Kosta (after Kosta Tszyu cause he was small and fast and used to beat up the other cats!).

There have been others but they're my faves! :)

So.... names? Meaning? randomness?

First dog: George, He was a basset Hound. Was there before i was born.
Cat called Bucket. dunno why i called her that.
Rabbit called Luggy. Kinda slang for ears is lug-hole so luggy it was.
Ginipig (how do you spell that word?) called Winston. I liked the name.
rescue dog called Ben. He was so vicious we didnt have time to name him and had to take him back.
Dog called Polly
cat called Raymond! We wanted a really non cat like name and Dallas was HUGE at the time and a character called Ray Cribbs was on it so we names him after that. *him and polly were best friends*
Cat Called Wembley (fraggle rock inspired)
Dog called Harry. He just looked like a Harry.
dog called Spot. Was a pre-destined name in an attempt to bring back proper oldskool dog names.

poor spot. :(

I dun think there's any reason behind our dog's name, other than it rhymes with the names of my housemate's previous dogs. She's called Candy, but nicknamed 'Dogzilla'.

It's rather apt, trust me on this

*giggles* dogzill hey? lmao!

I've got a hamster named Mr. Penguin because he waddles when he walks and so do penguins.

I've got a betta fish named Ghost. He's mostly white, but he's got a few black spots on him.

I've got a frog named Prince and another one named Ass. (You can go kiss the prince or you can kiss my ass. I thought it was hilarious)

And I've got a few other fish that don't have names.

Hmm,
We had a Landseer Newfoundland named "Muffin" my grandmother named her and I'm not quite sure of the logic behind that one...she was huge

Black and white DSH named "Cuddles"...the only problem is she wasn't, except with Muffin, blended in perfectly, became a HBC casualty at about 2 or 3 years

Grey/white DSH named "Jake"...I dunno, I was like 8 or 9 so I guess he can count himself lucky he got a "normal" name, he's currently 12ish and doing well

Black, Lab/Husky mix named "Chewy" his former owner chose the name b/c evidently he chewed everything in sight (we never had any problems with him chewing anything but his toys and the odd pop bottle) unfortunately this wonderful fella became an HBC casualty about 3 weeks ago at age 12ish, best dog ever :(

a Black/yellow lab mix named "Buttercup" - this is a BLACK dog lol, more commonly known as "B.C." she's roughly 7ish

A Black and White DLH, appears to be a Main Coon or Maine Coon X , A 5ish year old trapped stray about to be given a swimming lesson until we rescued him, Aptly Named "Sylvester" b/c not only does he look like his namesake he has that "cat that ate the canary" grin most of the time, Gorgeous, mild mannered fella.

"Skittles" and "Mommy" are our latest additions, Two almost identical(Skittles has a black patch on his nose) Dark tiger striped DSH's
9 mo old mother and 3 day old kitten to be given swimming lessons and ended up at our place as well

We're running our own animal shelter lol, can someone please wipe "sucker" off my forehead?? please??

Casper_Fading 17-11-2008 04:20 AM

HBC? DHS? DHL? Explain please!!!! lol

At my moms house I've got a dog named Lucy and a cat named Desi and used to have a cat named Simon. (Lucy and Desi because I used to love I Love Lucy)
At my apartment my sisters cats are Alex and Evy. (Don't know why she chose those names, but they fit)
My boyfriend used to have a cat named Chaos. (It totally fit her personality)

Amaryllis 17-11-2008 05:06 AM

I think HBC is hit by a car. But I'm not certain.

DSH - domestic short hair

DLH - domestic long hair

Oliviaface 17-11-2008 05:26 AM

PMSL.

I thought DSH meant dashhound.

She barks at anything and everything xD. My housemate has always said that when she goes to the vets, she 'morphs into Dogzilla', and even though I haven't seen her at the vets yet myself, from the way she barks her head off just 'cause of someone walking past the house on the other side of the road, I'm inclined to believe her, lmfao

akita 17-11-2008 07:08 AM
