[net.pets] Pets nicknames ?

dxp@pyuxhh.UUCP (D Peak) (06/14/84)

 Of our three cats Sheba,Snowshoe & Sushi we've given two of them nicknames 
that are generally used when we are a little annoyed at them.             
    
   Snowshoe - becomes "Pig fish" named after a fish that lived at the bottom 
              of a garden of a house we renred in Key West one year.This 
              one fish (a grunt) used to try and eat all the food my wife
              threw into the water leaving almost nothing for the other
              fish.Needless to say Snowshoe is the heaviest of our cats.
  
   Sushi    - becomes "Fish breath" for obvious reasons [even when she's
              not eaten fish in days].

I have a Rhodesian Ridgeback whose registered name is Tampo's Timua 
(Timma for short).  Timua is Swahili for "ruffles" (ruffles have ridges)
and she is from the Tampo kennel.
