Stupid stuff you say to/sing to/do with your pets.... [Archive]

As I was singing to Clancy earlier this evening whilst trying to take a picture of her with a sock on her head I wondered what other Ledgies to their poor furry friends?

What names to you call them? Do you sing to them etc...and does the stuff you do make as little sense as the stuff I do/say?

Mostly I make up songs...and actually I don't make them up so much as change lyrics...

My favorite is the classic Beatle tune "And I Love Her" redone:

"I give her all my wuv...that's all I dooooo..and if you saw my moo you'd wuv her tooo....and I wuv moo...."

Or this little ditty to the tune of "She'll Be Comin' 'Round the Mountain":

She's a moo and I wuv her, yes I dooo....She's a moo and I wuv her yes I do...she's a moo and I wuv her...I wuv her and she's moo...she's a moo and I wuv her yes I do."

I know what you're thinking - that I've totally missed my calling as a song-writer :p

Anyway - moo. I don't know where that came from but it's taken on a life of its own.

So share....or am I the only one who continually makes an ass out of myself with their pet?

I make up a new name for my dog everyday. :laugh:

yeah - I'm pretty sure every dog I know has major identity issues as I don't think I've heard any of them called by their actual names :laugh:

get new nick-named almost on a daily basis:

Example: Gilligan (Our dark orange long haired male cat who is recovering from paralysis-He's walking very good by the way)-Crippled Nuts, Butt Monkey, Monkey Boy, The Turd-burglar, Numb-nuts, Hop-a-long, Funky-Monkey, Funky-Monk, Neuter-nuts, Dingle-berry balls, etc.

Oh, I also sing death metal "Cookie monster" style vocals at the cats, but use their names instead of song lyrics!!

I sing modified Cyndi tunes to my bird. :laugh: I'm sure we all know the classics, Nelly Changes Everything and Nells Just Wants to Have Fun.

I've got a bunch of nicknames for her (one I can't post on here :p). Lately, I just call her 'budgie' or 'Nelly-o'.

The last time I saw her, if I remember correctly, I called her:

- Summer (her real name)
- Summy
- Summerlumpkins
- Sugar
- Sweetie
- Babii :laugh:
- dumbass :p
- bitch! (I'm not mean at all, I just belittle her when she does really dumb things! :p )
- Pupper
- HeyYou :P

It's quite a list. :p

Brian..glad your cats walking better...and those names are hilarious!!

golddust...: glad I"m not the only one who modifies songs :laugh:

I've been reminded that I do call Cwancy things other than Moo. The Moo, Booger, Booger Bun, Bun, Bunny, Wuv, Mooinabox and cute ear.

We'd call my cat Bun Bun! His actual name was Snuggy, but we called him everything but. Bunners, Bunhead, Snugs, Bunny, Huggins (or Guggins, I forget). I call Nelly Nellbox! I thought I was the only one who did the box thing. :laugh: Not so original after all...

Wow! I thought I was the only one who did the box thing too - people find it so odd, "Why moo..in abox? Did you put her in a box?" Um noo...I just call her that :shrug:

OMG Bun Bun..that is SO cute....as is bunhead...I love it!

Right now Patches is in heat, So she is back to being "Patches-The Crack-Ho Calico" (Which is my normal nickname for her)

The poor vet must really not like our pets names, Harlen gets to go be "de-nutted" on Wednesday, Know he wont be enjoying that stay.

Cant wait til we take "Fred-Tread", That is one weird & goofy ass cat (He looks almost like his late older brother "Run-Nugget")

i love this thread! and now, i will embarrass myself on it. :o

i regularly say things to my dog like, "look at how cute it is! how did i get such a cute dog?"

or -

"it's my very favourite dog! how did i get so lucky to get my very favourite dog living with me?"

or -

"how much do i love this dog? how MUCH do i love this dog?"

(told you it was embarrassing)

of course, i'm smothering her sweet face with kisses as i say them, in the most ridiculous voice ever. she eats it up.

and she, also, hardly ever hears her real name. i have a few regular nicknames for her: sweet, pumpkin, honey, lovebird, babies, mush, fuzz... plus anything else that just fits the moment.

Well.....I sing to O'Brien, to the tune of "They call the wind Mariah"
O'Brien......O'Brien......I call my cat O'Brien~
I call him O.B. O.B-meier O.Behave....
he likes it when I cup my hands on either side of his face and he looks like hes getting a kitty facelift! he's such a dear, always making bread on me or my blanket or whatever....(gosh I hope he's ok....)

my other cat, Kwan Yin is the Gremlin, or the Gremlin Girl or Gremmie.

Razzmatazz is the Razzle Dazzle Girlie, or Razzy Tazzy or Razzy

I had a cat, Kwai Chang, and I used to sing to him (to the tune of Hong Kong Fooie)
Kwai Chang kittie
number one super cat
Kwai Chang Kittie
they dont come any better than that! (not very original but hey!)

I sing "Islands In The Stream" to my girl cat, Coquie, and she gets excited (or maybe annoyed). Even if she's sleeping, she'll get up and start purring and doing that kneading of claws thing.

I also gave her a last name. One night several years ago, my late partner and I had come home from eating sushi. There must have been beer involved, because we kept calling her various things like "Coquie Maki", etc. Eventually "Coquie Nigiri" stuck, so that's what we wound up calling her from that point on. Now I usually just say "Hey Nigiri".

My boy cat (Rickypt) is the baby and I call him baby even though he is now 7. :xoxo:

Rickypt

10-24-2006, 09:38 AM

Oh, and since everyone else is admitting embarrassing stuff, we also used to sing along to the Antiques Roadshow song, but only using the words "Coquie Nigiri".

Oh, where do I begin. :rolleyes:

My old cat Peanut somehow picked up the name Jeeves (before the web.) :shrug: And Fat Bastard (before Austin Powers.)

One Eyed Willie has already gotten a few nicknames: Wills, Kitty One Eye (tat's from my Goddaughter), and "Jesus Christ, Willie, get the f*ck out of the way!" as he's constantly underfoot.

Mrs. Bouvier is usually Miss Boo, or Boo. Sometimes "the little bitch." :D

Bubba is also Bub, Booba, Bubzee, Bubbalicious and The Gas Man. :p

OK. My mom used to...I don't know how else to put this...make our animals talk. Like, I'd say "Domino, come here" and she'd say (in a quiet high pitched voice) "no, I don't want to." I'd roll my eyes & tell her she was a dork. Well, somehow me & Mark started doing the same thing. The cats' voices are high pitched, kind of like Mr. Hanky or Towelie from South Park. Bubba's is low & rough. We take it to the next level though. For example:

Me - "Boo, come here & sit by me!"
Mark/Boo - "No f*cking way, leave me alone!"

Mark - "Willie, you're so cute!"
Willie/me - " Yeah, that's right bitch!"

Me - "Bubba, did you poop today?"
Mark/Bubba - "Hell yeah I pooped. There's a big one waiting for you in the backyard, Ma."

Oh, and we get mad when someone (usually my mom)mixes up their voices. She'll reply & we'll go "no, mom, that was Boo, not Bubba." And we have to remind eachother not do do it in front of company. :o

Mufasa is Mufy, Moo, MufyMoo, MooMan, Handsome, Cutie, Momma's Boy, Sweetie, Freshie, Fweshie, Punk Ass Kitty, Butt Licker, Buddy, King, etc...

I do the voice thing too Paula. :o Mufy's voice is sort of like Cartman's but not as throaty. Me, "Do you want some catnip?" Mufy, "Yeah I want some catnip, Ma!"

I talk to him constantly. My roommate said one of these days he's going to talk back. Here is the walk in the door monologue, "Hi Sweetie, you're so handsome. Did you have a good kitty day? Mommy missed you so much. (smooch smooch smooch). Hugs (pick him up and squish him). Mommy loves you." Sometimes I tell him I'm sending him to work so I can lay around the house all day. :lol:

I don't even know where it came from, to be honest... Adding box just makes it cuter, I guess. lol.

Snuggy was a cute widdle kitty. Well, cute big ass kitty. I posted pictures of him awhile ago in the pet thread.

My dachshund Olana - I call her Booga Booga. (Variration of the sound made on the SIMS when one sim scares another). At least from a version back a few years. I haven't played in a long time.

My 2nd dachshund Otto - I call him Deet Deet. (Variation of Mind of Mencia ending credits ....)

"Who's a bad, bad kitty? You's a bad kitty, Bad Kitty."
"Wook at da wittle white paw-paws! They's a so cute! And da big white kitty bewy. Wook at da bewy!"

my dogs answer to anything at this point. i think it's a matter of tone of voice ... i talk in a different voice when i talk to my dogs. i do wonder if my dogs know each others' names. like, does sadie know who smidge is? i bet they do by now, especially sadie, since she's been around the longest.

I've wondered that too...and I wonder what dogs "say" to each other..and I wonder what I could get accomplished if I actually did something useful with my time instead of sitting around pondering what my dog thinks about :lol:

Yeah Clancy is completely and totally spoiled..only comes when she wants to etc...unless I get the mean mommy voice, then she knows I mean business..luckily that's rare.
