Cats past: Pixie, Mia, Mimi, Whinger, KitKat.
Cat present: Leila

It's a place name close to where she comes from.
Unfortunately it's a tricky Gaelic spelling so she has to have a different spelling at the vet's otherwise they come up with all kinds of weird and wonderful names for her.

I was about to name my all my past pets. However Grauniad and Norks both make excellent points about the pass words.

Justgivemesomepeace · 02/12/2018 22:06

2 fish called Mitch and Sponge. Did have 2 guinea pigs called Punky and Snoodle.

WinterBerry7 · 02/12/2018 22:08

If I ever get another dog I want to call him Colin. Can’t explain it, just have always wanted to!

chronicplainjane · 02/12/2018 22:08

Peggy and Betty the guineapigs

Uberbeeboo · 03/12/2018 00:40

user1494588420 · 03/12/2018 00:45

I've got a dog called Bert and 3 boy cats marvin, Sydney and Diego

MamaBearThius · 03/12/2018 10:09

Thanks moomin!

MamaDane · 03/12/2018 10:43

Indiana Jones (Indie) and Phillip. They are a female and a male cat.
I'd like another cat named Poul but DP thinks it's a ridiculous name for a cat. Hmm

MamaDane · 03/12/2018 10:44

@QueenofCatan ah I love Farscape and those names!

QueenOfCatan · 03/12/2018 11:12

@mamadane I'm glad to hear it, it's rare people really know Farscape, they know of it but not too much about it! I'm sure you'll understand when I say that Sikozu was like her name sake then, sneaky and always climbing up the walls somehow 😂 we totally chose the right name for her! D'Argo was appropriately named too! He was a grumpy sod!

MamaDane · 03/12/2018 12:19

@QueenofCatan Grin is Sikozu ginger as well? Now I want a B&W Scorpius Shock
Lmao at D'Argo being a grump Grin

SarahLovezHerChildren2018 · 03/12/2018 12:22

I have 2 children which I consider animals hehe! I also have 2 cats one named Jeff and the other Ginger.

QueenOfCatan · 03/12/2018 12:58

She wasn't no, we thought that she was going to have a ginger stripe but it disappeared as she grew a she was a different variety to what we originally thought!
I really wanted a jet black one named scorpius but we decided to switch back to having girls only after our numbers dwindled again (having boys would mean nuetering them and keeping them separate for a chunk of time and then introducing older rats which is harder than younger babies). D'Argo was the last of our Farscape lot and he had to be put to sleep in November, he softened as he aged, a bit like his namesake 😁

This is Spock. He was named by the rescue because of his enormous ears and I decided it suited him.

Our cat is called Archie - after Archie the villan in EastEnders (back in the day when I watched it)
Our Labrador/Retriever cross is called Monty - it's a play on our surname and is a family tradition that has been going for 80 years now.
