Buffetting : Names for Pets

I stumbled across this in FB via American Veterinary Medical Association.

I totally gagged my way off the list.

My favorite was:

Lord Godrick Von Mousenberg

Seriously, I wonder what kind of species was that animal. Mouse? Rat? Or maybe its just a Cat?

I've heard a few funny ones when along my life, eg:

Wasabi for an orangutan

Zinfandel(wine name) for cat

Nyanga for Lioness

Lord Louise for cat also.

As for my pets, I had 5, but 3 passed away because of 3 different accidents, all male pups.

My first one was Hachi(ハチ), named her after the number 8 in Japanese. Remember the famous movie Hachi? I never knew the dog existed, and it was like super famous among Europeans. But apparently Hachi is also called as BEE in Japanese, so my Japanese teacher thought I liked honey a lot.

Later when she got banged by a neighboring dog, she got pregnant and gave birth to 4 pups.

The eldest was named Mako(マコ）, because of her M shaped white mark on her chest. It probably because a larger mark over the years.

The 2nd one was named Ichiro(イチロ), because he had only one slit of white mark on his shining coat of black fur when he was born. He passed away because he got strangled to death by his ELDER SISTER tied to the chain. Great right?

The 3rd one was named Hiro(ヒロ), because he had a wide white mark on his chest over his black fur. He passed away because he got rolled over by a car while he was 2 months' old.

The 4th and last one was named Yukito(ユキト）, because he had more white spots around his black coat of fur than all his other siblings. He passed away first, and he died immediately when he got knocked by my sister when she reversed her car.

Sad I know, but I enjoyed naming my pups in Japanese. If I ever get new pets in the future, I think I will stick with Japanese, or German.
