Funny animal names

[greenrootsmama]

My aunt raises Nubians and she named her first doe Fetta. I think she continued with that and named other goats cheese names but I don't remember them now.

We had some unique names for pets as I was growing up. We had a dog named Maynard, one named Herschel, and one named Virgil.

This is a story more about my parents, both strong willed people, than about the dog.
We had a beagle that my mother named Buttons and my father named Belle Starr- and both called them the chosen name, never anything else. The funny thing was that we kids talked about Belle to my dad and Buttons to my mom. The dog was not the only one well trained.

I had a cat named Bagels 'n' Cream Cheese.....she was tan (toasted bagel) and white (cream cheese) and black (burnt bagel edges) and she made me laugh a lot. She looked, to me, like Angela Landsbury, that alone made me laugh.

When I was a kid we named the animals for slaughter, as a reminder, things like Big Mac and Quarter Pounder and Lambchop.

Someone once told me about a horse named Cat Sass, and when the announcer at the shows said the name, it sounded like something a bit naughty....

This isn't animal related...well, maybe...I've seen some real missing links coming out of this place! Where I'm from, there was a bar named Hadacall. When the owner was questioned about the name he said, "Well....I hadda' call it something!"

My cats name is Tweety Bird, we just call her Tweety.
My 3 yr old DD named her beta fish Buzzwoody.....yes, she watched Toy Story 900 times the week we got the fish
My parents had a Boston Terrier named Hoover, like the vacume, and he was a living vacume!! I once saw him swallow a WHOLE pork rib bone! (He hurked it up a few minutes later) Sadly, he was hit by a car last year.
We are getting chickens this spring, and my husband already has his named Tractor!

Friend of ours gave birth in the kitchen..literally! while she was mashing potatoes for dinner...her son just dropped out...lol So they named him Mashed Potatoes. Poor kid.

My brown lab is named catfish, cause he looked like a catfish and always smelled like dirt. (I didn't like how dirt sounded for a name). Our German Shepard is named Kimber - The make of my husbands .45, both for protection.

We also had Walker who was the best pound puppy ever (he was killed last year, hit by a car ) of course after Walker, Texas Ranger.
