My Rabbit was called Jetset
cos she was both jet black and jet powered.

She used to do this great trick when it was time to go back outside where she'd hide under the sofa till you stretched out on your tummy to see what she was up to, then she'd sort of piruette in a circle on one of her hind legs whilst piddling so that a 180° arc of warm rabbit wee would stream forth into your eyes.

She was fab though - so I forgave her -she really didn't like to go back into the garden though.

I had 2 rats given...
...to me on 21st Birthday by my housemates at the time. When they were revealed to me one was at the top of the cage, clinging on for dear life. It reminded me of the film Cliff Hanger so I named it Sly.

The 2nd one was put on top of my head by someone and it promptly released the biggest piss I have ever seen a small creature do. It reminded me of "Pisser Jed" from one of Lee Evans' videos so I named it Jed.

...they we both girl rats. I only locked them in their cage at night. opening their cage door 1st thing in the morning and closing just before I went to bed. They had free roam of my bedroom. They never chewed anything except paper and would quite often make a nest in the bottom drawer of my desk. Sometimes I would wake up in the middle of the night being licked on the face by one of them if I'd forgotten to lock them up.

ahhhhh

Edit: Oh yea... that they liked smoking spliffs. If I had guests and we were having a cheeky one and left it in the ashtray, one of them would soon realise and try and steal it!

pet names
At uni we had three pet rats named Cactus Rat, Rat Van-Damm and Rat Mysterio, because we're sad and like wrestling.

My Auntie had a dog...
Called Rover, who was agrophobic ironically enough. She also had a dog called Toby who made crappy beer. Both now sadly dead.

I had a Budgie called nipper, who nipped my drunken uncle one Christmas and as a result poor Nipper was kicked across the room and then stamped on rendering nipper a mess on the carpet. Ahhh the casual booze related violence of families in the 70's....great days.

Oh & my auntie has a new dog called Max (after Mr. Gibsons 'Mad Max') who has coincidentally, and a little spookily, just outraged the local jewish community of Witham with his film of the Crucifixtion.

Fenriz
Morgoth is an ace name for a cat...and on a similar note I have a cat called Fenriz....so named because it resembles the geezer from Darkthrone, wearing corpsepaint!

FUD the dog
My neighbours had a datschund, it was pretty old, it's head kind of pointed slightly left of centre all the time, like it was turning to look at something but got stuck like that. We used to watch it walking around their garden from my bedroom window. It would walk around in a big circle following the direction it's head was pointing for ages, until it eventually just fell over on its side. Poor little bastard. We named it Fucked Up Dog, or FUD.

my brothers hapmster was named lucky
no the funny bit, it could be more unlucky being ended up with our house after nearly begin eaten by our dog twice and lost in the house for days upon end it almost suceeded in committing suicude by escaping from its cage and climbing to the top of it (the whole cage was on a rather large bookshelf) and then threw it self off, this didnt kill..unfortunatly because later that month we all went on holiday for the week, a few days when we came back someone noticed that it was being 'slow' and 'sluggish' when someone noted that the water bottle was empty, and even more, had been empty since before we left and the poor little glorified rat was seriously dehydrated, not long after that it did go to the big running wheel in the sky and endith the ledgend of 'lucky'

Pet Names
My cat is called Morgoth. He is an utter bastard. Took down a seagull once. Now lives in Carlisle (long story involving an ex-girlfriend and allergies) where, I am reliably informed, he contrived to eat the next door neighbour's child's new Guinea Pig on Boxing Day. The beast is a monster with no remorse.

My pug is called Mr. Bongo...

People laugh at me when I call it at the park when he's running off sniffing sticks with his tongue smacking his forhead.

Cheers

Solong the Cat
Hi. My cat's belly once made a sound that sounded like it said, "So long!" as though it were going out on a trip somewhere. Since then, the cat's been known as Solong. I hope he says something else someday.

I have decided
I've not checked but it should have been said, and if not, it should be known. Porno names. Your porno name is taken from your first pet's name and your mothers maiden name/street name (dependant on area.) When I have a kid, if it's a boy their first pet is going to be called foot long cock and if girl, horny cocksmoker. It's a no brainer isn't it? they'll thank me at the age of 13

I had 3 gerbils
named Dolly, Molly and Polly.

And they were forever fighting. It was really quite rather slapstick watching them. Hmm. But then they all died within a week of each other, they lived for years though. We even made them a neat little perspex maze that rested at teh bottom of their perspex cage, covered in sawdust. They loved that.

Pet Names
I got my cat after watching a couple of episodes of Red Dwarf one Saturday night.

I didn't know what sex the cat was and therefor needed a unisex name.

I decided to call her SMEG.

Then one called bombhead.

cats and dogs
My first cat's name was PeeWee (yes, after PeeWee Herman) I was like 4 at the time, and LOVED PeeWee's big adventure and bigtop PeeWee.

My dog (who we got a year after PeeWee) was originally going to be called Tinkerbelle. Then I reconsidered and called her Jess after Dog's girlfriend from Footrot Flats (what an awesome comic strip/movie)

PeeWee then proceeded to chase Jess up and down the hallway of our house. He was larger than her at first, but not for long. No matter though, as he was always boss, always beating her up, even tho he grew into a large black tomcat and she into a half lab half ridgeback and was like 5 times his size, he had no inhibitions about scratching her face up if she hassled him.

Then my mum got a cat about 7 years ago and wanted to call him Iggy (Pop), I wanted to call him Todd (Rundgren) but we compromised on Eos (God of Dawn in Greek) cause he is a blue/grey colour. Now he gets called "Asshole" or "Uss" as in (P)uss(y).

Just remembered
A friend bought a dog and called it Sol, after Sol Campbell. This was when he still played for Spurs.

About a week after getting the dog, Sol Campbell moved to Arsenal.

Dog was renamed Sol-d
