pet names for pets

born phoenix and skinny, these madcats are rarely referred to as anything other than "mr. phoenie" and "squeezebox" (she does an uncanny impression of one).

our own lucy goes by "goose," gabby is known as "wabbers," and dottie is called everything from "dotbot" to "donnarella."

the nicknames don't make sense but somehow they fit and the cats don't seem to mind.  maybe they have their own nicknames for us, too.  "hairless weirdo," "pillow butt," or "hooman the poo-man" would all fit the bill.

so what do you call your pets?
