         I have a really wierd habbit of unintentionally making up nicknames for my pets. DON’T JUDGE the nicknames are really strange and don’t even relate to their actual names lol ;P

        The first rabbit I had I started calling bunnyfriend and then I started calling him ladybird once in a while because he had these huge brown eyes with lots of long,dark lashes. Now I realized I have just started calling Wilbur mogwai when she does something “evil” because a friend joked about how Wilbur reminded her of that gremlin movie (apparently the gremlin’s name was mogwai?) when she runs around crazy causing mischief. Ahhhhh I have no life

          Both DH and I make up tons of nicknames – DH is worse than me. I usually call Otto – Baby Bear, Baby Bear-face, Baby Bun, Mr Buddy, Little Bud, or Otter.

          Hannah usually gets – The Mer (her original name was Merlin), Mersical, Handa, Hannah Banana, Miss Banana.

          Collectively they are the munchkins, baby buns, fuzz butts, or bunny wunnies.

              Slowly but surely they are acquiring nicknames (our dogs have tons!). Tillie is Tillie McNillie, Til Til, Sassafras and Matilda when she is in “trouble”. Toby is Mr. Toby, The Tobester, Tobias and loverboy.

                  I just call Leopold a little turd when he’s in trouble. My husband calls Mr Wooly “Sweaters”. That’s about it. We have tons of weird names for the dog though.

                        Powder is Pow-pow, binkybun, boyfriend calls him pet monster because he’s always after pets. Stickers I usually just call my little girl, though occasionally she’ll get called her highness

                        The Gremlin in the movie was named Gizmo, but he was a mogwai (it was the species)

                                                  All of my pets get nicknames. We used to have a cat named Sonic who went by Hamburger or just Burger. It had something to do with the ‘I can has cheezeburger’ thing. Our dog Zeke has an endless list of nicknames and it is every growing.

                                                  My names for Momo include: Mo, bink, twitch, and brat-bit. My husband calls her fun-bun on occasion.

                                                    Gabby has plumped up quite a bit since coming to live with us back in March. I usually call her Fatty Patty when she tries to sneak the dog food kibble. She’s taught Thumper it tastes good too. I have to watch them like a hawk when the dogs are eating. I also call her Gabby Loo or Gabs.

                                                    Thumper is my little Thumper Doo or Thump Thump.

                                                      We have 2 nicknames. When he jumps out of his litterbox too soon he is the ‘poopie monster’ and when he runs around the room as fast as he can we call him ‘doodlebug’.
