(most of them were named like that because they were born/found at my dad's shop. The last 3 were adopted from shelters/vets offices but we kept the pattern going. I broke the pattern with our cats though)


and a dog named Ulli.

Gary and I have decided when we get a dog it will have a car related theme! love your kitty names!

Before Buddy came along, we briefly had a kitten here named Paul. (Family Guy reference)

I'm fostering a young male kitty named Curtis. . .and my cousin has a cat named Steve. I don't know why I think those are funny when I have kitties named Scotty, June, Dot, and Sammy and my mom's cats are Sonja, Roxy, Savannah, and Fiona (all people names, but not funny like Curtis and Steve for some reason).

My brother has a male named Tea. Because they let the baby name him, and when she tried to say "kitty" it came out "teeee!".

That's Lucy's middle name.

My husband named his cat "Much" after the baker's son in Robin Hood. It caused a lot of confusion ("Munch?"). And given that Much was female, I always got the question of why name her after a male character.

When I was a little girl, I had a cat named Rover. We also had a cat named Bones. She got her name when my brother used to call me bones, because I was so skinny. My dad started calling him Bonehead when he called me that so he named his cat Bones.

DH and used to have a cat named One Nut. You can imagine why....

We named one of Hazel's kittens Puffin. He got that name b/c he used to get scared at every little thing and puff his furr up. Now he just mainly does it if the dogs move too fast around him, but before all you had to do was basically look at him and he would go PUFF. Ninja is kind of a weird name also. That is what we call Hazel's brother. He got that name b/c he is almost all black and he moves really fast.

I have a chicken named Fancy Pants...does that count? LOL When we first got her, her tail feathers stuck up all spiky, so one day I said to her "my, don't you have some fancy pants?" It stuck, so that is what I call her now. We used to have a roo named "Turkey Chicken". DS named him that, and yes, that is what we called him. haha We also had a roo named Goose, b/c he honked like a goose instead of clucking like a chicken.

I used to work in a vet medical lab and the most unusual cat name that I read was, MouseTrap. Very funny.

My mom's cat is named Acupuncture. Her brother's cat is Chainsaw. Growing up we had Pinkerton, Zonker and Tribble. So the names April Joy, Christopher Cody and Midnight Sun are quite normal, right?
