Lumi, she loves laying on your lap and does not even stand up if you move to another spot. But she hates being touched on the back (can be bribed with food) Kittt picture

She has melted (and is also very cute)

[–] XTL@sopuli.xyz 4 points 2 days ago

Kind of funny seeing a black cat being literally named snow.

She's awesome.

I called domino an idiot a few weeks back, because i brushed her, pulled the fluff out and put it on the ground. She then proceeded to eat it, get it stuck in her mouth, then puked all over my carpet. Sheesh. What an idiot lol. I still love her <3

[–] EvilBit@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Chess is an aggressively stupid, fat little monster that we love dearly. He rolls over onto his back all the time and just stares at you with this big dumb upside down grin.

[–] allriledup@piefed.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 days ago

he's innocent!

Is sully named after the pilot from america who saved a plane?

nah, the monster from monstropolis who saved Boo

Though they spell it wrong in the movie if you ask me

[–] atrielienz@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

When she was still with us?

Fluffy. Fluffy nuggets. Fluff Nugget. Fluffinator. Fluffy cake. Mrs Cake. Cake. Cake but when a Japanese person says the word with their native accent.

There's more but it's been a decade and it's after midnight.

[–] allriledup@piefed.blahaj.zone 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

RIP Mrs Cake. How old was she?

[–] atrielienz@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

She was 8. She had cancer. She was the runt of her litter and I miss her every day.

[–] allriledup@piefed.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 days ago

I’m sorry :( I can tell just how much you loved her <3

[–] Asafum@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

Every cat is kitty, but somehow my current cat nyx (who I've ever actually called by that name) is now monkey.

[–] Widdershins@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

The man of the house gets called Mr. Chowdown because he's usually already eating when I'm putting food in the other bowls.

[–] pH3ra@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Rorschach (bottom): Rory, Rorino, Rorangelo, Froggy, Little Cat, Tiny Piece of Shit

[–] Cruxifux@feddit.nl 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I call my cat Nyarlathotep Nyar for short. But other names I call him are Mr Murder Mittens and Mr Vinegar.

[–] allriledup@piefed.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

is he a good boy? I bet he is. How dare you accuse him of being a murder mittens!

[–] Cruxifux@feddit.nl 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

He is most certainly not a good boy.

[–] allriledup@piefed.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 days ago

TAKE THAT BACK. HE IS THE BESTEST LITTLE GUY EVER! :)

[–] Pringles@sopuli.xyz 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

  • Our white cat: Azog, little pig
  • Our gray cat: lynx, master hunter, little moon
  • Our male cat: Dyson, chunky chonker, the opera singer, sweet boy, moomoo

They also have "gypsy" names. Respectively Jessica, Jennifer, Esmeralda and Kevin

[–] allriledup@piefed.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

kevin is a great name for a kitty <3

[–] Pringles@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Those are not their actual names, just when we forget them for something. Like I will do a cuddle tour in the house, but forget one, then my wife will say "Is she (or he) from gypsies?" because I suppose they were a historically neglected group. Hence they all received a gypsy name.

[–] allriledup@piefed.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 days ago

Haha cuddle tour. I do the same thing lol

[–] Davel23@fedia.io 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I had a cat named Henry who eventually became known as "Yenners".

[–] allriledup@piefed.blahaj.zone 4 points 2 days ago

story time :)

[–] officermike@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

CoJack (now deceased): CoJack Kitty, Bitch, Bitch-ass Cat, CoJack Bitch-ass Kitty, and Meowsellus Wallace ('cause he looked like a bitch)

Gouda: GobbleGouda (because for a while he took to making a garbled meow that sounded a bit like a turkey gobble), Fatass (he's 21 pounds), Gouder, Puddle (because he melts into a fluffy blob when he loafs)

Romano: 'Mano, hesagoodboy

George: Geeeooorge (in a shrill voice because it weirds him out), Potato (because he's a bit on the roly-poly side and also seems to have the mental capacity of a potato)

Meeka: mostly just Meeka, but sometimes Precious Kitty. She didn't really used to be vocal until we found her root ailment was stomatitis and we had all her teeth removed. Now she's a lot happier and yells at us when we sing-song her name at her.

Her name is Kitten, but we'll call her Shmittens, Smittens, Mittens, or Bitchens when she's having her mood (calico...if you know you know 🤣)

Just Jezzie or Jezz, her name's Jezebel, my little, fluffy demon. ❤️

[–] Psaldorn@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

Bismuth, biz, bizzo, bizzywhiz, bizz the whizz, whizzo, The Dickhead, Sir Bizzlington,

[–] Skua@kbin.earth 3 points 2 days ago

Kattepus, because I had a Norwegian neighbour who called our cat that when I was growing up and now it's a nickname for any cat that lives with me

Pointy Boy and Noisy Boy, because he is both of those things

Little Shadow and Baggy (as in Bagheera) because he's a black cat and has a habit of sleeping on things that he is camouflaged against

[–] swampwitch@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

Julien: Big boy, Idiot, Trouble, Greedy

Tia: Baby girl, Gremlin, Munchkin, Menace

[–] vrighter@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 2 days ago

penny: paninu (means burger bun in my language)

Doggie: The big bad dawg

Zettu: Mr. Ferfex (mr scatterbrained)

Terry: Fessewda (a play on words between fessuda, meaning cuddler, and sewda, meaning black)

[–] HerbalGamer@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Oscar; I just call him Old Grumpy Man or My Baby.

[–] allriledup@piefed.blahaj.zone 1 points 2 days ago

I call dom cow names because she's a cow cat. heh.
