I had two guinea pigs called Kyaw Kyaw Win (which is my own adopted Burmese name) and Mohinga (Burma's national dish, usually at breakfast). But my son didn't like them - he said all they do is sh1t everywhere. So they were dispatched to a friend in the country who had other guinea pigs and he renamed them Joe and Mo; they are, of course, no more but I suspect distant offspring of them are still around somewhere.  )() )()

Our cat Tasha has three names, the other two are Twizel and Psycho as she beats the dogs up for fun  (*( - Chyna (who is a  Rottweiler) sits on Tasha when she's had enough and Bruno runs away from her.

The funniest name wasn't actually my pet but I used to call a neighbour's dog Twinkle - I was young at the time  =+- and the dog used to walk to school and meet me when I left.  We call our budgies Fred and Barney as in the Flintstones characters ^%$

I was asked to adopt a little stray black cat. The kids who found him were calling him Ben, but I decided to adapt this. I normally call him Wedgie, but when he is a bit of a pain, I call him Anthony Wedgewood Benn in a disapproving Lady Bracknell tone. He ignores me either way! He has nearly succeeded in training me to be his devoted servant. I love him lots.

I've always loved cats. When I was married we had Livingstone and Dudley, then we adopted The Tabby Monster. Finally Tatty Oldbit invited herself in one night, and promptly gave birth to 5 kittens in a pair of my underpants. I wasn't wearing them. We adopted her, and found homes for three of her kittens. We kept Newt and Frogmella. I was working at the time, so we were able to be responsible parents - we took all the cats, sat them down and encouraged them to use birth control. Once it became clear that the concept was a little beyond them, we took them to the vet. If looks could kill! When life fell apart, we found a farm given over as a home for cats. This wasn't the farm that parents tell their kids that Timmy has run of to. It was a real institution. When I felt able to function at a reasonable level, I was lucky enough to be told about Wedgie. He's pretty well the only reason that I get up each morning, so he does me a lot of good. Although he never gets ME breakfast.

I apologise to anyone who was expecting a simple post, and instead got War and Peace.

Love all the pet names they make me smile I have two cats at the moment tam the bam but thomas trout on a sunday and lucy lipstick is the other one.  I had a totally mentl rabbit when I was young called twinkle as in the twinkle twinkle little star.  My dad was convinced the reason the rabbit was disturbed was because of its name.  He bit scratched and peed on anyone who went near he eventually went away to be friends with a lady rabbit and they were hoping for little rabbits.  This was the origina warerabbit lol

Here's an odd one. Well, it's me - what did you expect? When I was younger, my little brother had a housefly called Cedric. Even though I had a well fed Venus Fly-trap. Oh, my poor brother. How he suffered when I told him the truth about why Cedric so often appeared to change. While talking about Peter, my brother, I used to pin him down, and perform "The Typewriter" on his chest. Things changed when he gained the strength to throw me off, and perform this torture on me! That was last week. For all you kids out there, a typewriter was like a non-electric computer with paper instead of a screen, used to send old-style e-mails which arrived at the home of the person you were trying to contact almost instantaneously, or within a few days at least. Sometimes. So anyway, in summary - Cedric, housefly. Do you know that sometimes I have been accused of being long-winded and a little off topic? It's hard to believe, isn't it. I remember once I............

Michael you made me laugh at cedric the housfly, I wanted a venus flytrap and went to a local garden center this was a lot of years ago, anyway asked the man if he had any venus fly traps and he said no he had a lot of trouble with them and walked off, I was left wonderig what sort of trouble were they having never did find out lol.

I had two cats, Britney, who was a rescue cat, beautiful, black and tiny, who we sadly lost last year, and we have Dinky, a cute daft silver gray tabby, who is a soppy thing, and likes having her tummy rubbed like a dog.

Turquoise, when I first read your post, I thought that the man had told you that the venus fly traps kept walking off. That would be trouble!

I.B.Igor. My friend has a silver tabby, and she too likes her tummy rubbed - the cat, not the friend - the rougher the better, until all of a sudden, that's enough, and she gets ready to retaliate if you dare to carry on. Cats are so lovely, aren't they. -_)

Yup, Cats are furry psychopathic little killers, who make a pleasant noise when happy, and come the revolution, or thumbs, and self cleaning kitty litter, they put up with us mere Mortals, were all beneath them you know ,..until its raining, and they happen to be locked out, or they are in, and want out, or vice versa, or both, and they hate visitors, and gravitate to the lap of the biggest Cat Hater in the room, and with claws fully extended, settle down on a terrified lap.
Cats, gotta love them. $%$

Rabbits are lovely, aren't they. I used to have a grey male called Robinson. He used to come through the cat-flap, and made himself quite at home, but he developed a taste for nibbling through power leads. Luckily we noticed before anything too bad happened, so we pinned all the leads up on the wall. He then developed an unnatural interest in one of our cats! Sadly, it was a neutered male, so the relationship went nowhere. Dudley did look a little confused.
