cats

SIMBA -> SIMBABIMBA

Percy aka Percy-Cat and No, you've already been fed!

I’ve got two. A void and (I think) a blue point.

The void is Apollo, but his nickname is “what is that in your mouth”

The blue point is Islay, but her nickname is “how the fuck did you get the toilet paper again”

Her name is Masha, but I call her "Estás bien fea" ("you are so ugly"). She doesn't mind.

Anya (she and all of her litter mates were named for Buffy TVS characters): frequently referred to as Fluffy Girl, Hissy Face, or Lady Shedsalot

Ozymandias (named for one of my favorite poems, but also to kind of keep with the Buffy theme): Oz, Ozzy, Bubby, Fuzzy Boy, Big Boy, Squeaky, Fluff For Brains

Nova and Athena. SillyButt and BabyKitty.

This is Luna. Her nicknames include: Stinky Lady, Baboona, Beepy Boopa, Loons, Lunar. Plus more that I'm sure I'm forgetting.

Miss Caligula, in keeping with a Roman naming tradition. Usually shortened to Cali, or more often than not just goes by kitty.

My sister calls my male young cat Åse, a nordic SENIOR female name. I have no idea how she got it.

Name: ToeKnee

Nickname: Tony

Name: Nomi

Nickname: Nerbals (among many, many others)

This is Izzy.

AKA Isabella, Queen Isabella Greypelt, Izzy Busy, Isabella Busy Boo, The Puke Monster and The Monochromatic Quadropus. At least one of those has one of those inane songs to go with it.

Snuggles, Struggles, and Franny.

Although we've started calling Struggles by new names such as Yappy Jackie, Gob, and Screamer.

Not a cat, but I adopted a dog whose name was Doc. I started calling him Docky and that became Ducky and then he started responding to that so now that’s his name.

He has a brother named Dexter that I obviously call Goose lol

Lubochka / Lulu / Bochka / Bobo / Booboo / Bober / Boober / Luboo / Bochkin

Zim and Kylo have become "Silky" and "Fluffy Butt".

Zim gives me Invader Zim vibes and Kylo's name I inherited when I rescued him. Not like he answers to it or anything.

One of our cats is Meshe, we call her Moo. Meshe -> Mooshe -> Moo.

Bonus: we have a dog named Gismo, we call him big boobs. Don't ask how we got there, it makes sense.

Name: Aaron Purr

Nicknames: Biscuit Boy, Boffin, Little Babushka, Baaronki Paponski the Zoozahzonski, Bahba, the VP, Bisco Pisco Sour,

Dexie, or Puddin Poopers

Name: Emily

Nickname: Emmerly. Sometimes I sing "Emmerly and Ivory" to her 😁

Name: Charlotte

Nickname: Char-Char

I also refer to them as "The Sisters" or "The Fabulous Staredycat Sisters" since they are in fact sisters from the same litter and love staring at me, visitors, and each other 😄

A rare moment of them getting along outside of having fun playfighting:

This is Zoe, aka Princess Zoe Peanut Butter Garbanzo

She got the name peanut butter from a delivery guy one day who was helping move in a new couch. She just went up to him friendly as can be and the delivery guy just went “hey peanut butter” and the nickname stuck.

Name: Luci (disenchantment character)

Nick Names: Lulu, Goddamnit, Dumpster goblin, Lou, Stop that.

Name: Rorschach Nick Names: Buddy, Rory, purrlator, ruru, socks, hungry boi,

Name: Miso
Nickname: Dickhead, when he is stupid. Mate, when he isn't being an orange cat.

Sushi

My wife and daughter call her su or more commonly su-su

If she's in trouble then it's Sushi Maki Roll <Our last name>

I call her Stink Butt because she takes the smelliest poops I've ever had the displeasure of smelling and then doesn't bury them in the litter.

I had a cat named Buddy, and he would get up to a lot of mischief so we'd often refer to him as "the monster". Once you start calling your cat "Buddy monster" you'll find you're a very short distance from "monster of buddies I'm pulling your strings".

Here's Buddy after wrecking his Christmas-themed RV:

Her name is Beri. Nicknames: beko, bekos, or berko. As you can see in the pictures she's a low intelligence specimen.

Mimo, memes, mats shmickelson when eating, captain zeiksnor when annoying and sjattepoemel when sweet.

Name: Blu

Nicknames:

• Blauzi
• Baunzi
• Stinki
• alte Kackbrazze

One of my cats is called Pipping but I call him Chonky (He's actually not chonky but behaves like he is.)

This is Oliver. I mostly call him:

• Little Boyyyyyyy! (Singsong, obviously)
• Beautiful Baby
• Little Baby Man
• Stinky Boy
• Goofy Little Guy
• Crunch Boy (when he's eating)
• Whiny Baby (when he's feeling talkative)

Oh and my partner calls him Ollie.

Scout

Who 99% of the time is Scooty.

She's occasionally called: Scootybutt, Scooterella, Scoots, Scootyscoots*, Scuttles, Scuttlebutt, Scoutster (only ever used by my mom lol), Scootypuff Senior (a la Futurama, but she's too old to be Junior. Scooty is 12.)

(*Edit: I should add that when using this one, it's always pronounced as "ScootySCOOOOOOOOOOOTS" in imitation of our friend who coined this while drunk.)

We pretty much only call her Scout at the vet

~~I'll add a picture when I get another break from work~~

Edit: pic tax

Looking guilty after I caught her licking a plastic bag

Asking for attention/if she can steal my chocolate croissant

"Helping" me work from home

Mush mush. Her real name is Altima.

Possum. Her nicknames are:

• Poss
• Poss-cat
• Poss-kitty

My boy Mo

Or:

• MoMo
• Moby
• Mo-boy
• Moraca
• Mohamed
• Mo-reese
• Mostly harmless
• Guiller-mo
• Slow-mo

And probably dozens of other names I've appended Mo onto. He's a good sport about it.---

Edit: I just realized this was his first time outside after hip surgery. That's why his hair looks weird on the back half.

My cats name is Jimmy and sometimes I call him Oggy, especially when he's chasing bugs (no cockroaches here but I hope you get the reference)

Poe, Po-po, Mr. Popo, Big Orange, Big Arnj (on his hip)

Truman, Troomers, Trumy, Boomer, Little Orange/Arnj
