NC for this as mega-outing!

But, I believe we all have nicknames / terms of endearment / joke names for our pets.

I want to hear yours and if there's a story behind it, even better.

I've two dogs Beabea and Murphy. The collective noun for my babies is 'The Stenches', to the point that I ask my DDad to Stench Sit and my mates call them The Stenches too.

Beabea has a few nicknames, all totally said in a loving way, I promise! She's a bit cuddly, very fiesty, raucous, cheeky and fun, so her names are Madam, Lard Arse, Beabea Boo Bum, Boo Bum, Boo, Bitch Face, Bitch Features, Big Girl, Daddy's Princess and My Princess.

Murphy is very timid and clingy, (Beabea wears the trousers) and he's happiest if being stroked, cuddled, or spoken to, he doesn't like rough and tumble play. He's called, Dopey Bollocks, Gimp Features, Gimp, Captain Gimpy, Gimpy Pants, Knobhead, My Shadow, Twat Dog, Big Boy, Mummy's Prince and My Prince.

I'll shut up now and await responses that make us feel less weird. 👀😁

I call my cats the toddlers because they are always squabbling. If one gets up on the sofa the other comes along, pushes them off and then sits in their spot looking smug. One of them loves to sneak up on the other and sit on her head. They love each other really but it feels like every time I look at them one of them is finding a new way to taunt the other.

Dickhead and Gorgeous Fluffy Bastard. I swear he’s made out of cloud-fluff he’s just that soft to touch, but he also wakes us all up at 5.30am and tries to trip us down the stairs. Love him to bits though, the daft git.

Rat face-cat face or bat face-cat face for when he's hanging upside down off of something like a wardrobe

Belly.

My cats name is Belle.

MissDai5y · 26/06/2019 12:19

Our cats were called Venus and Shiva.

Venus was mostly nicknamed booby cat or booby for short as she had been neutered and left with a flappy stomach.

Shiva was nicknamed shifty as she'd creep about the place.
