  • 1.  What's the funniest name you've heard for a pet?

    Posted 03-04-2022 10:16 AM
    Time for a little Friday fun! What's the funniest name you've heard for a pet? 

    I was talking to my neighbor the other day and we were joking about how the neighborhood cat pretty much "owned" all our houses (and how much we loved it). She told me he reminded her of a cat her dad had years ago who pretty much ruled everything. His cat's name was "M'Lord"!🤣🤣🤣 Doesn't that just say it all? 

    Would love to hear the names of pets you've heard or maybe had in your own family that made you chuckle!

    Best name we ever had for a shelter pet, was Captain Sprinkles. He was such a lover, but was very big, intimidating looking pitty. With a name like that, he was adopted in no time!

    Love this!
    When I was a kid, there was a the sweetest older man, Mr Tilman, who volunteered as a crossing guard at the intersection next to my house. We would visit him at his home when we were collecting money for our paper route. It was then that we learned he had a black Cocker Spaniel, whose name was "Hey you!"

    We had a foster that named a kitten Artsy Fartsy…for obvious reasons.  When the kitten was ready for adoption he became Artsy.
