I had a guinea pig named Kevron. He passed away so I named my next hamster Camron (similar to Kevron).

Caesar (my dog) is named after my cat (who passed away) named Cleopatra.

My current cat (Lady) was named when I bought her. She was a kitten, but I liked the name and kept it cuz it fit her personality. She thinks she's the Lady of the house..lol

gigglz, I got a cat who looks like Garfield and at the time I got him, I didnt know I had him but I was at Salisbury School. We went to c the movie Garfield so its named after my time at Salisbury School, a good homecoming prezzie too. Sylvester (our recently deceased cat looked like the cartoon cat Sylvester) so its named after him. Our oldest rat whom we got on Elvis's thirtyth anniversary is named after him. Possum was born on the day Possum Borne died so we named her after him and it sounded fitting that her mate would b named after a race car driver so before we got him we discovered he had irish ansestory so we called him Greg Murphy. We got a young kitten (given away unfortunatly due to toilet accidents on bed covers) on a Sunday, he was mine so I called him Sunday. That is how we named some of our pets.

Ferrets

Carrot - My daughter said "Ferret" sounds like "Carrot," and it stuck.
Dotty - She is all white with 1 spot on her nose. My girlfriend says she is a black ferret covered in white spots.
Cottontail - She has a stub tail that looks like a grey cotton ball, when she fluffs it up.

Cat

Mischief - Tell me it doesn't fit almost every cat.

Dogs

I didn't name them, because they are my girlfriend's and she had them long before she met me.

Ur right bout this comment CO2

Mischief - Tell me it doesn't fit almost every cat.

I think every cats a mischeif but I have met one really stuck onto ya cat but that was only one. My kitty keeps getting into mischeif e.g eating from the bench and getting into the dogs space when she doesnt need it caus she has puppies.

Heres another name u might like -
Wombat (dead yesterday) - he looked like a wombat without a tail at all, suits the name and the description and Wombat was a Sweedish Vallhund, he wasnt docked but he was born bobbed.

Our dogs are Moshi (Jack Russell) and Eddie McDirt (West Highland White Terrier)

Moshi has adopted my glove as her puppy. Mischief tried stealing the glove and Moshi pinned her to the ground. I'm kind of surprised Moshi didn't kill Mischief.
It's funny watching Moshi carry the glove around ever so gently. She also sleeps with it, and protects it with her life. She only lets people around the glove, but starts growling and barking when other animals are near.

We now have another cat to name, which may be pregnant.

Any idea as to why she picked a glove?

I'm guessing it's because it smells strongly of my girlfriend and I. It's my glove, but my girlfriend has worn it.

Maybe it resembles a puppy, to her? :scratch:

My cat, Socks - Dh named her that. He said she looks like she has white socks on. (I thought they looked like sneakers and wanted to name her Sneakers!)

My cat, Booboo: from the 70's, early 80s show Laverne and Shirley. They had a stuffed animal kitty named Boobookitty. I always wanted a cat named Booboo since seeing that tv show. :D

My stories pretty wild!
It all started with my aunt finding us a cat! She brought him over and said he was a boy but the lady who had owned him before was told she was a girl. The cats name at that time was Milo so obviosly we din't want to change it to much to make it sound like a girl. Then my dad took (her) to the vet the doctor said Miley is Milo! We were freaked and went back to MILO. It's a wacky experience . It is also weird staring right at Milo while typing!
