How many nicknames do you have
for your cats or other pets?

On average, I have three per kit. Oliver is "Olly" as well as my "little buddy" and occasionally, my "bud bud" and he answers to all of them.

Garibaldi, the heifer, is also "Buddha" and "Blubba." Occasionally, I'll also call him Fatso. (He's 25 lbs.)

Jean-Luc is "JL" and "bubba." I also call him the "Wussy pussy" which doesn't endear me to him much.

Delenn is more likely known as "little one" but I don't have another name for her.

My Jessica was "Jesse," "Babygirl" and just "Baby."

1. a ton of them
too stupid to type here and they change every day. But I almost never call them by their real names.

4. Lemme see....
My cat Scooter is Scooter-boy, Scooter-cat, Stinker, and Cat-Face, so I guess he's got four nicknames, given that the hyphenated names count.

5. they include a lot of profanity,
not-so-pc names and those related to bodily functions

but the universal nicknames for the nine cats i call mine (at two different homes) include munchkin, girlie or buddy, poop/pooper, brat and so on

8. Well, let's see.
For my oldest cat, Miss Kitty The Queen of the Universe, sometimes I call her "Missalafagus". And sometimes, it's "Shuggah Puff."

For Baby Cat, sometimes it's "Mommy Cat" because we kept one of her kittens, so she's a mommy as well as a baby.

For Katie Cat, sometimes I call her "Katie Belle."

And for our dog, Chloe, sometimes it's "Sugghah Bear," sometimes "Munchkin", sometimes "Chloe Bear", sometimes "Shuggah Pie."
