cats

On the left is Babyman, also known as Chickenman. He has two names because he's either a babyman where he's all cuddly and wants to be cozy or he's a Chickenman because he looks like an uncooked chicken as he runs like a madman all over the house when he's hyper.

On the right is Freyja. Typically goes by 'Frey', but when she's in a hyper mood (which is extremely rare) we call her 'Turbo Cylinder' because she's very tubular in shape at high speed.

SIMBA -> SIMBABIMBA

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

I have two void brothers.

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

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.

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.

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

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

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:

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”

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.

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

Snuggles, Struggles, and Franny.

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

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

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

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.

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

Nova and Athena. SillyButt and BabyKitty.

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.

Possum. Her nicknames are:

• Poss
• Poss-cat
• Poss-kitty
• Poss-ghetti and meatballs

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

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

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

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

Truman2

Poe2

Tommy is on a diet I promise

Nyx, but every cat I have is either "kitty" or lately "monkey"

I'm at work with a new-ish phone so I can't pay the cat tax, I don't take many pictures :/
