Does anyone...

I don't think a day goes by when we don't sing to one of our kids. Always a goofy version of a song with their name stuck in somewhere to get their attention. Some regulars:

To fish heads: Muddy, Muddy, rolly-polly Muddy. Muddy, Muddy, pick him up, yum.
To Put the Lime in the Coconut: You put the lime in the Koko-Nut and rub along her tummy.

Hubby and I go off sometimes making up cat verses to the Whose Line shoe hoe-down or Irish drinking songs.

Tom Jones' pussy cat song or

"oh Summer cat, oh Summer cat....how lovely are your whiskers" - sang to the tune of Oh Christmas Tree

time to run and hide!

I always sing "I've gotta be me" to him. It's his theme song.

I sing the theme to Caspar the Friendly ghost to Oscar. It goes something like this "Oscar the friendly cat, the friendliest cat I know" and I really don't know the rest. I sing so many strange off-the-wall things, I don't know what half of my made-up songs are.

Funny you should mention this. I walked downstairs to the family room earlier this evening to find my husband singing to Ozzy (black black black cat with gold eyes), "Black cat staring at me ... golden-eyed moonshine ..." or something like that. I don't know WHAT he was doing.

Absolutely! I sing all the time to my babies!
Sierra's my sweet baby girl. Sierra, my sweet girly whorl, who's the most beautiful baby in the world, little precious Sierra baby...
Serenity's new song while she is brushed:
Little baby Serenity, Serenity gets brushed, such a precious Serenity, Serenity loves to be brushed, what a good baby girl, pretty little Serenity...

I am always singing to Tibby and Molly! I have all sorts of wonderful songs for them!

I won't tell you the words, as I'll never be able to show my face round here again - plus, i'm hoping one will be my 'one-hit wonder'!

Ow go on Sar, tell us please

I not only do it to my cats but do it all day at work too. I'll bet my coworkers are really missing me right now..... or maybe they're thinking I ought to take medical leave more often!

I don't know if it counts as nonsense, but I used to sing Al Stewart's "Year Of the Cat" to my two. Invariably they'd leave the room.

Yesyes! Tell us! I've admitted I have a dance routine for my cat to go along with the song I sing her!

It wont be bad!

Shhh I'll sing the whole Elliot song to you!

Li-li puddin' pie, sticks his bum right in your eye
he's real fat and thats no lie.
such a roly-poly guy

Treatsies treatsies treatsies food
He's always in an eatin' mood.
give it give it give it MEOW
what-e-ver he wants it NOW

Belly scritchins, uh.. no way!
Touch it and He'll bite your...
Hey!

(start from the beginning)

I was singing it to myself one day wihtout knowing,, and when I realized I was singing something I wrote it down. Lol.

I havent yet caught myself singing something to aerowyn besides the normal unintelligable things. (which usually is saying their name over and over aain to a tune)

Elliot always puts his ears back and wont look at me when I sing to a tune to aerowyn's name :O But he loves it when I sing his name.

One of the songs I sing to Peaches is: "Peaches has a big butt and she can not lie....." She's not amused.

A few days ago, I found myself singing "Scoop...scoop that poop.." (Shoop shoop, doodle oodle oop)

I sing to Katie, she must think I'm crazy. Her nick name is Cheeky Monkey, so this is her song...
Cheeky Monkey, Cheeky Monkey ra, ra, ra.... Cheeky Monkey, Cheeky Monkey ha, ha ,ha...

I have some other songs, I think they are crazy my self

I sing to my cats, especially Emmy. Here's mine:
Emmy, Emmy, EmmyLou
How do you do?
I Love you,
Yes, I do.

not very original, I know.....but she doesn't care.

when i'm in the kitchen and my cat comes in and just walkes around i sing to her "pretty kitty walkin down the street, pretty kitty walkin down the street"
and that goes on and on till she meow telling me "watever weirdo can we get down to feeding me now." and when i'm looking for her i just sing nonsense in cluding many of her nicknames goodbye now...

Yup, guilty. I can't help it. Especailly a new foster cat. I sing to them alot to get them use to me and alot of times to actually get them to calm down. If I have a cat that meows alot in the car if I sing they quite down and sometimes even go to sleep. I probably knocked them unconscious with my voice but that is ok. I like to sing to new fosters that "We will go home, we will go home" song from King Arthur. I love that song!

And I realised I've done it with every pet I've had!! Maxey does it too...lol

Do you??

ALWAYS! Corkie used to LOVE me singing songs to her - it really helped when we did the subQ fluids.

Kotton has a special one where I call her Kotti and tell her I love her. When she hears it she comes running!

I just found this thread, so I figured I'd give it a bump!

I sing to Poncho... (to the tune of the Village People's "Macho Man").....

"Poncho Poncho Man! I want to be....a Poncho Man!" etc.

I sing a made-up song to Minou, in a high pitched babyvoice....

"Minou-Minou-Minou! I love YOU! She's my BABY GIRL! Awww, yes she is! Who's my baby girl?" etc.


Okay, I'm going to back to my corner now.

Yes, and they are to dumb and silly to be repeated.
