    We have Dorothy who is known as Dolly, and James who is known as JammyJew, "Jam-es my best mate" (from a Goodness Gracious Me sketch), Mister Chubbs and variations on Fattie.

    They're also known as The Chickens, because when they sit down they look like roast chickens. Dorothy is little chicken and James is big chicken.

    My pets do have real life names but on open forum they have forum names. They are, dog dog, big dog, pinkwhistley, mauve squeaker, special girl, old girl. The chickens get spared the indignity of forum names. :) as do the feral cats i feed,they just get the names they are given in real life. :)
  • 2 cats, one is Newton and only seems to get called that. The other is Mouse and is often Mousifer or the Mousketeer.
    The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt.

  • Hehe, loving the names some of you give your pets!

    Mine aren't as imaginative but I have..

    Liffey - Liff, Fluff cat or Farm cat (we got him from friends who own a farm, when I told my friends this they all started referring to him as farm cat!)
    Duffy - Duff, Duff-Duff or Baby boy (he's our youngest and so is my baby boy!)
    Mossop - Moss or baby girl (she's our youngest girl and is very small despite being 14 years old, still looks like a kitten!)
    Tibby - Tibbles, Tibbs, old lady, grumpy b*tch (she's our oldest and has moved out of our house, but checks in every now and then, and when she does, she spends most of the time hissing and growling at us/the other cats!)
