Do you have any funny nick names for your cats?

When we first got our kitten, he was so tiny and ate so much food that he got a little pot belly within a couple weeks. And, every time I picked him up, I loved rubbing his tummy and calling him my little Buddha belly boy! And even though his name is Orange Cat, I still call him my Buddha belly boy. Bad thing about it, I think HE is really a SHE! Do you have any funny or weird nicknames for your cats?

My cat pounce ended up with a nickname of princess because she was so pretty and regal looking. But most of my cats get silly nicknames if any. Tiger is Tiger-boo or Tigy Wigy, Sunshine is Sunny-boo or Sunny buttons.

Sunny-Boo! That's precious. I'm glad we have cats so we can be silly!

My cat, whiskers, has had many nicknames in the course of the 2 years I've had him. He's been called Furball, Frisky, Neko (Japanese for cat), and Whiskey. He was called Purrful, on account of his constant purring, but this eventually was twisted into the oddest nickname of all: Purple (even though not a single part of him is purple [he's gray and black, by the way]). 'Little' was added to this name, which, somehow, changed to Iddle, and so he now has the Alias Iddle Purple.

We have two kitties who will be 10 months old on the 30th of October. My kids are always calling them daddies babies instead of their real names because when my husband is petting them he is always saying are you daddies babies. It is really cute. I call them by their names Frisky and Jazzers.

I do not have any cats right now (my hubby is too allergic!) but I've had some pretty funny names for cats before - we had one we called sneezy because he was always sneezing, I had a "Fat Cat" and a Pickles and Bubsy...We also had a Jeebus...growing up in a rural area with an abundance of stray cats we've had a lot! Cats never seem to answer to their names, so I think its okay to call them anything you seem fit!

Before I got my cat Shakti, his previous owner, as well as calling him by name, called him "Dude." He ansswers to both. My husband's cat is named Mysticat, Mysti for short, and sometimes I call her Mystipie, or Mystikitty. She answers to all of those names.

I don't have any cats. My daughter has a Siberian Husky and when she (the husky) was a puppy she would call her Nu_Nu, a pet nick name for her. Now she hardly every call her that she is 4 1/2 years old.
