What's their other name?

I'm sure you know what TS Elliot said about a cat's 3 names. One we'll never know, of course, and I enjoyed reading about how you came by their given names in the other thread.

I'd love to hear their nicknames, and how they came about.

Rocky is Jelly Belly because he loves to have his belly rubbed so much that all you have to do is say "Jelly Belly" and he'll roll over and spread his legs, and you are required to rub his belly while saying Jelly Belly over and over. He will often just roll over and spread his legs to initiate his belly rub.

Deja Vu, having the honor of being Rocky's Mom, who also likes her belly rubbed is "mummy tummy" for obvious reasons.

I'm 52 years old and go around tickling cat bellies and calling them "Jelly Belly" and "Mummy Tummy." LOL

Most of the time its either Marlee or Boo. No idea where that came from! Sometimes I'll call her Baby Bear or Baby Girl. Baby girl is easy enough, but again, I have no idea where Baby bear came from

I call my cat Yen, Yenny. She just listens better when I do that. I call her kittens Kitten A and Kitten B because I don't know what to know what to name them and because there was this kids show a few years back about bananas and they were b1 and b2(banana 1 and banana 2)

HeeHeee
Yep...do we EVER call them continually, by their REAL names??!!! (NOPE!!! )
**My Missy is really Miss Mischief and I call her MissyMooMoo a lot OMG--Now THAT Is goofy!!
**My KatyKitty is REALLY, Missy KatyDid! Because, since I got her, she jumps sideways all the time, like a KatyDid Bug! But, I call her KeeKee, and Pottsie, and Turkey and......... OMG!!! Just about anything that comes to mind, when I am calling her!!

Kandie is brazala

Zoey is monkey child

Ailey is baby girl and charlie calles her scaley ailey and alley cat cause she was a stray when we got her .

salem on the other hand is slaylem my daughter called him that one day when her "mouth wasn't working right" (her words not mine lol)and everyone else calls him satan well that part does not really need an explanation now does it lol!

Elsa is called "Chunky Monkey" because she was near-death at about 5 pounds in June, and by October she weighed 10 pounds!

Tigger is called "Tiglet" for "Piglet" because she eats, and eats, and eats.

Nadette is "Itsy" since she's the smallest and youngest of the kitties, so she's "Itsy-Bitsy".

Smudgie was "Smoochy". He was the sweetest ever!

Pudge is "Pudgy Wudgy", "Fat Girl", "Moochy McMoocherton", "Daffy Hag", and "Mini-Moo". She'd chew my face off if she could understand what I was saying.

I call Spot Spotty, Spot-head and Silly Bird
