Names you give your pet animals

[Lady Whistledown]

got me thinking, reading that cat/squirrel thread.

What appalling names did you give your household pets, particularly when you were a kid?

I had a black & white cat, and in my 8 year old wisdom, named him Fizzy.

In his own mind, he probably had some heroic feline giant of a name, but he was always Fizzy to me. Poor creature (RIP).

Rosie and Jim for twin cats I think was my best effort.

 

[Easy 10]

Had a cat called Molly. She'd dead.
A hamster called Honey. He's dead (shat his intestines out, for some reason).
A budgie called Skippy. Got mauled by the neighbours cat. Dead.
Currently got a cockatiel called Bruce. He's doing well.

I had a rabbit called Starsky in the Hutch

My cousins in Australia have a big black labrador called...




Vegemite.

 

[Dave the OAP]

had a cat called puss!

 

[Stat Brother]

Our year old retreiver is called Lionel.
Yes, I am old enough to know better.

In my yoof I've owned a goldfish called Maurice, & cat called Knucker, although the santuary we got him from called him foo-foo.

 

[The Large One]

When I was young, we had a cat called Smokey. A squirrel ate it.

We've got a cat called Pussy Wuss. (My son's choice of name). When we got a spaniel I wanted to call it 'Doggy Wog' as I thought the names would match, my wife vetoe'd it on the grounds that as the dog was black people might take offence.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Always said if I got a cat now, I'd call him a proper name. Dave was the favourite.

Only because it would amuse me, standing on the doorstep last thing at night, shouting "Dave! Come here boy!, Come on Dave! Dinner time! Here Dave!".

I had a dog called Gemma.

The Beastmaster was tugged from sinking sand by two ferrets on dipping branches that hung over this evil dune. When he knows he can breath for good again, he welcomed the mammals to his shoulders for their sense of play and laughs from heart to name them Podo and Codo.
The Beastmaster is very lonely and i feel at night he'd rape a goose or bite an unborn egg in two, but he loves them ferrets.

A budgie called Skippy. Got mauled by the neighbours cat. Dead.

Hmmm, anyone got the RSPCA's number handy?

Sounds like a classic case of Munchausen's Syndrome By Pussy/Hamster/Budgie

I was recently asked "why Lionel".
I explained that the short list contained Gary, Mike, Colin, Duncan, Stuart etc. But we agreed on Lionel.
The guy replied "don't you think you'll give him a complex with that stupid name".

 

[Bluejuice]

My first cat was called Moon for some reason.

My last cat was called Marc

 

[The Large One]

Recently, we had a dog called Kelly. It was an old and infirm dog when it was born, and used to crap, piss and puke wherever it felt like it. Remember this...? http://www.northstandchat.biz/showthread.php?s=&threadid=80348

Well, the fucker's dead now. Assissinated by the vet. Quite spectacular too, he did it in slow motion with a .44.

A mate of mine has a cat named Rover

 

[Meade's Ball]

I have two brothers and a sister.
We had 4 cats in our youth. They were generally supposedly owned by all of us, but lived for years under the names of Moonlight, Nightshade, Tigger and HellBastard.
I had two gerbils without name. Bother perished in a week. One with an oversized cornflake in its throat and the other murdered its neck in the bars of its cage. Suicide without a name.

When we got a spaniel I wanted to call it 'Doggy Wog' as I thought the names would match, my wife vetoe'd it on the grounds that as the dog was black people might take offence.

Without wishing to cause any offence, a mate of mine who lived in South London BANNED his mum from letting their labrador off its lead in the local park because there was no way he was going to have her shouting "Oi Blackie! Get over here!"....
