Bentley

Pet Name: Bentley
Pet Owner: Brian
For years, my wife had been wanting us to get a dog. I have always been a dog lover, but in my 20’s had become quite allergic to some breeds. I was scared that we would get one, and have to give him up because of my allergies. One day, my [...]

Baby Cat

Pet Name: Baby Cat
Owner: Ann Marie
We found our kitten abandoned in our shed and fell in love with her. At the time she was tiny – smaller that a Beanie Baby.

Since we were living in Greece at the time, I wanted to name her Athena Sophia but the name “Baby Cat” is what stuck. I [...]

Sonic

Pet Name: Sonic
Owner: Amanda
It all started 13 years ago with a trip to the local animal hospital to look at kittens with my mother and younger sister. We all fell in love with this extremely rambunctious and adorable black and white kitty. My mother allowed my sister and I to name him. The popular video [...]

Max

Pet Name: Max
Owner: Pauline
My dog’s name is Max and is short for Maxamillion, although his formal kennel name is ‘Delphmounts Max Our Million’. There’s no real story behind our choosing this name, other than we thought he looked like a ‘million dollars’ – so we named him Maxamillion.

When I first saw him he was [...]

Lilly is a Ragdoll (a breed of cat that goes limp when you pick them up) and she is the darling of our household.

Suki

Pet Name: Suki
Owner: Diane
I rescued Suki from a local shelter (her name was Gracie at the time), and I decided to name her Suki after a town I visited in South Africa called Soekmekaar, meaning “searching for each other”. I decided to use the phonetic spelling of the word (instead of Soekie) and coincidentally; [...]

Chocky

Pet Name: Chocky
Owner: Maria
This is probably an example of what you should NOT name a cat! In my defense, I was only 6 years old when I decided to name our new kitten “Chocolate Fart Bum”. I can’t exactly remember why I chose this name…I think it had something to do with the [...]
