Appropriate names for pets...

We had a one eyed cat who we named Nelson.

 

[Drago]

I'd have called him Cyclops, but Nelson is good.

I'd have called him Cyclops, but Nelson is good.

His eye wasn't in the middle of his head.

 

[Smudge]

I'd have called him Cyclops, but Nelson is good.

Or 'Sniper'

Some bloke called my dog blackie the other day, he was of a certain age, the bloke, not the dog, the dog is black but I can't imagine it's a name used much any more, although I remember from my youth knowing a few dogs called Blackie.

Not as bad as Guy Gibson's dog, featured in the film The Dam Busters.

I used to have a cat called Fleabag. It would have been a fairly trendy name today because of the BBC series.

I have a dog, blind in one eye, lost a leg, and recently run over. Answers to the name of lucky.

I shout "Throat Ripper" when I call out to my sister's dog. (His name is actually 'Frankie'). It gets some worried looks from other dog walkers! (I actually had to explain to one person that it was a J*O*K*E, but they looked like they didn't believe me... )

My cousin had a dog called Muffy. I used to call it on walks, 'Ere Muff! I never tired of it but my cousin did.

We once had a cat called Isaiah for obvious reasons

We've only ever had rescue dogs, so they've already had names when they moved in.

My friend acquired a rescue dog called Heather. They couldn’t change it’s name.

Which was quite unfortunate, as his wife is also called “Heather”.

“Heather, you know you’re not allowed on the sofa”.
“Heather, stop sniffing that man’s crotch”

A friend lived in a bedsit in Notting Hill in 1983 after we qualified. The landlady always needled him into taking her similarly named black Lab for a walk in the park and he often had to run round shouting for it to come back...

Mate of mine had a cat called budgie.

My in laws have a terrier called Tess-Tickles. I nearly peed myself laughing at my 6 year old nice shouting "TESS TICKLES!" at the top of her voice in public as she tried to call the dog back.

I used to see someone, where we used to live with a Lhaso-Apso (ie; small, hair ball), named Yushi-Ted...……………………..
Again, calling it was amusing, to watch/hear
