I've had cats my whole life. But Clara is the one who pushed me over the edge and now I'm THAT Crazy Cat Lady. She has her own chair, with a heat pad on it.
I think I previously told you about our Lhasa Apso Murphy, who had an array of names. Many of which got passed on to Merlin, our new Lhasa puppy. Here goes...
Murphy
Murf
Smurf
Murphy Moo Moo
Little Man Ba (here in Norfolk 'Ba' is another word for 'Boy')
Little Man B
B
Mister Babba Gorgeous
And depending on what misbehaviour he's exhibiting:
I can very much understand the ‘madness’ that can come over you at a dog show, and the disappointment of not winning. Many many years ago, I dated a guy whose family had 3 Rottweilers. The family used to breed and show Rotts but had stopped some years previously. For a bit of fun one weekend, they decided to show their female dog in the seniors category of a nearby show. Within minutes of ‘our dog’ going into the ring, I became an instant expert, despite having never owned a dog in my life and knowing nothing about Rotts, and was convinced that she was far and way the best dog there that day, and that she was guaranteed to win.
She came second. I was gutted. The family told me though that there is very much a clique in dog shows, that newbies never win, the owner of the dog that had won our category was somehow connected to the committee, and so our second place was as good as winning because that was the highest place we could have hoped for as ‘outsiders’.
So I definitely feel your pain of being “robbed” when you entered Rusty 😠
I have at least one (anywhere from 1-5) betta at any given time. They all have names, but also are known as Babe, Beebs, Pish, Pishes, Fish Pernish, Cutie, Dude, etc...
Bibi
AKA: Bibiliscious, Bibiboo, doggie woggle, woggles, big baby.
Poppy
AKA: Popdops, Poppadopolis, Pip pops, Pop pops, Poppy wopples, Poppypoos, baby girl, little baby.

As a pack: Doggy wogs, Doggle woggles, Doggles, Doggos, Wiggly wogglies, Woglets, Doglets, Diggly dogglies, Girls.
The madness is real.
Could not love these any more.
Our two dogs are:
Bruce
Brucifer
Brucey McBruceface
Funky Monkey
...and...
Poppy
Pops
Poppy Chops
Funny Bunny
And for some long lost reason (I think it was in a Kerry Godliman stand-up routine) - Shitflaps
Which is entirely undeserved as she is actually very clean.
😂 Love all these.
It’s ridiculous. Our Lakeland terrier, Ted, is known by the following:
Ted
Teg
Teddy
Teggy
Teddles
Teggles
Teddington
Tedlington
Teddington Lock
Tedlington Lock
Teffelump (honestly!)
and also Rusty Scruff (sorry, but no one else in the family knows why)
Rusty Scruff! Love this! And also Tedlington Lock. I’ve also just remembered another one of ours - Sergeant Slaughter. Very ridiculous.
Our cat is named Clara she also is known as
Clara The Impossible Kitty (Dr Who fans will get it)
Bean

Sunshine Girl
Monkey (cheeky as)

Oh how interesting that it was one cat that pushed you over the edge! I love that she has her own heated chair.
Our Loki is also known as:
Loki-Pokey
Loki-Pokey silly old blokey
Sir Woofalot
The baby
Baby boysenberry (no idea where our son got that from)
I truly hope all these are shouted loudly at Loki across a park but I suspect not. Love them.
Oh, no I have to yell "SAUSAGE" (and have one available) to get him back! So embarrassing.
😂 I have to shout TREAT!!!
Buddy (his shelter name)
Buddy McGee (misheard from Prince's "Raspberry Beret" we thought his Boss was Buddy McGee)
Grumble Guts (he has the loudest stomach noises)
Puppy McGee
Doggy Wagtail
Professor Stink (probably related to Grumble Guts)
Fatty Fatty Fats (Simpsons)
I love it so much when Professor sneaks in!

Emperor Humpety Hump
Trouble
"That filthy animal"
I love it so much that Merlin inherited some of Murphy's names.
A good job too, as my Dad never really let Murphy go and still calls Merlin by that name. Poor dog must have an identity crisis!

It’s amazing how quickly the madness descends. I also love how quickly you started saying Rotts!
Fairly tame really but: Lola, Loles, Loley McPoley, and Billy, Biz Wiz, Billy McWhizzly. Definitely a bit of a theme with our name extensions 😂
I love that you think Billy McWhizzy is tame! 😂
My cat’s names, in order of creation: Daphne, Daph Daph, Freak Show, Daphenator, Shitbird, Little Business. 😳🙈
😂 Love them all! But especially Little Business.
I have at least one (anywhere from 1-5) betta at any given time. They all have names, but also are known as Babe, Beebs, Pish, Pishes, Fish Pernish, Cutie, Dude, etc...
I had to Google betta - they look amazing!
