      Two of my adopted cat are being named “cat” in my language.

      In my defence, vet need a name and i couldn’t think of one.

        The vets that I have experienced tend to use the human’s surname as the pet’s surname. If that’s the case with you also, it is humorous to imagine a cat’s chart basically saying “Cat [your last name]”

        I named my first ferret “Girl” and her sister “Yu”. One of my turtles is named “Turtle”. My creativity knows no bounds.

        I did name my dog Sophie though, so one out of four could be worse.

          Well we learn how to name stuff the more we do. My third cat is Tina and my 4th cat is bean in my language, so a step forward.

        I had a “cat” cat too, but nothing to say in my defense. And I named the cat who came in my yard but wasn’t mine “big nose” because he had a big nose.

        My adopted little girl is still listed as Popoki in her adoption paperwork. I think that is close to Cat in Hawaiian.

        We are firmly landlocked in the Midwest.
