I just came from another thread discussing cat's eyes and the "gunk" that forms in the corners. Several people were using this term so it must not be just an isolated term.

Well, I say "Foo-Foo" when it's meal time ("Who wants foo-foo?" or "Foo-foo time! Come get it!"). Wa-wa is water, um, what else. I think that's it, lol

I have a million cutsie names for the cats themselves ie. shnookims, muntchkins, Nerms, Fredlit (more when he was young, but i still use it ironically). When I come home and they're their, I say "hi friends!".

I don't have names for their body parts. But when they look sleepy or are sleeping I'll say " are you ready for seep" or "you were seeping" or "is someone seeping?" wierd but it works.

When i squish up the dogs or kitties faces and give them kisses i call them : Squishy baby, squish kitty, or squish puppy (Fosters is aka. "baby squishy"
)

Stuffed Animals- Stuffies

When the stand up on their hind legs then lunge their whole bodies foward and pounce something- colin and I say "They're doing "the monster" lol this came about when my old foster kitten Kenzie used to do that move all the time to her toys- she looked like a littly monster
Too cute!

Playing under the covers or attacking our feet/legs when we're asleep- Blanket Monsters

when they stink up the litter pan- i start sining the "Smelly Cat" song that Phoebe used to sing on the tv show "Friends"

Kitten Paws - when kittens pounce up and wave their paws in the air all excited
Jazz Hands - same as Kitten Paws
Kitten Chase - the hide/pounce/run game they love to play with you
Kitty Tunnels - flared trousers
Toothy Pegs - teeth
Wings - the web of skin behind their elbows
Bat Ears - ears (both of mine have huge ears)
Schnoz - nose
Dindins - food (although to the parrot, food is yum yums)
Tootsies - feet/toes
Kitty Staples - cat bite marks, usually to be found on book covers or the edges of an important form (job application, tax return etc) that you left unattended for a nanosecond (the parrot is the hole punch)

Anything other than their standard dry food = num nums

Paws = footsies

Stomach = tum tum

If I tell Chynna "Give Mum kisses" or "Kiss Kiss" or "love bugs love bugs", she will lick my nose.

That's all i can think of.

Alas I can't take credit for it myself, I read the term a while back in a thread here and it immediately became part of our regular vocabulary!


I forgot one:

Wall of Death - when they charge around and around at top speed without seeming to touch the ground

I don't use alot of these aside from their personal nick names.

Eye boogies = that eye gunk they get
Chubby tummy = spay sway or for wickett the fact that he's a little chuncky
The Lava Game = much like the wall of death this is when they leap from one piece of furniture to another w/out touching the ground... as if it's made of lava.
Stink but = Wickett when he has a dingleberry and I suppose dingleberry in itself is one too.
Dreads = mats in their fur

I think thats about it.

I usually don't have any cutesy names for anything...
but I caught myself telling a nippy stray yesterday "No teethies, that's not nice".


DH sometimes calls Tomas's toy mouse "mousey" when Tomas brings it to him to play fetch.

Uh, I'm glad someone else started this, not me!! I always thought I was a little weird for all of the names I've got going on.
Now before I thoroughly embarrass myself, please keep in mind that no one else knows about these little names, so let's keep it that way, okay?!


Let's start with the "normal" ones:
stomach: tummy/tum-tum/jelly belly
bottom: bum-bum

Names for the kittens together:
Kits/Kids
The Boys
P&N
Tins or Tin-Tins (as in the last syllable of kittens)
Hungry-Hungry Hippos (when it's dinner and they're tripping over me to get their food)
The Littlest Hobos (because they were tiny strays)
Baby Belugas (yeah, don't ask cause even I don't know...)

Nicknames for Pekoe:
Peek
Peeks
Pea/Sweet Pea
Peek-a-boo
Boo
PK
OJ (as in Orange Pekoe)
Pickle

Nicknames for Nigel (and this is where it gets really weird...):
Ni (as in the first syllable of his name)
Nigella
Ni-jo (to rhyme with Pekoe)
NJ
Jo
Joseph/Josephine
Jelly/Jelly Belly

Obviously I'm giving them some sort of identity crisis, calling them so many different things I'm surprised they even know who they are!
