It’s said that laughter is the best medicine,

and as a practicing veterinarian and pet

insurance enthusiast, I know this this true!

So here’s a dose of laughter that is sure to

keep you healthy. I’ve always been

amused by the funny names people

choose for their cats. Here are some of the

best that I’ve come across in my time as a

vet.

1. Bird Dog It’s what the owner really wanted to get, but a cat fit his lifestyle better. The poor kitty has to

bear the brunt of the owner’s wishful thinking.

2. Mousetrap Technically that’s what a cat is, so I can’t argue with this one.

3. Dog Food A cat could be this too, I suppose. But I hope not! Unfortunately, we’ve seen our share of cats

that have been chewed on or bitten by dogs. It’s instances like these where cat insurance can

come in handy.

4. Boogyman My colleague examined this cat. But his demeanor wasn’t as scary as his name implies.

5. Albus Percival Peanut He started out as just Peanut, but that was too plain and his owners thought his name needed

more bling! I’d say they achieved this goal.

6. Buttsey Wiggle This is one of my all time favorites! It’s descriptive and cute. I always laugh when I see my own

cats do their impression of “buttsey wiggle” when they’re about to pounce on an object.

7. Chunky Butt There’s just something about those big, fluffy, kitty posteriors that captures owners’

imaginations!

8. Monk E. Buht

Of course, a guy came up with this one! Need I say more?

9. Skimbleshanks and Grizabella They’re both from the T. S. Eliot poem and Broadway play “CATS”, but the first one is much

harder to roll off the tongue.

10. Leonardo DiCatrio There’ s plenty of famous people to play off their names.

11. Harley Davidson If you have a cool last name, why not take advantage of it?

12. Nickat Knight Another last name you can work with. This refers to Nick at Night on the Nickelodeon channel, I

belileve.

13. NBC Also known as “Not Bill’s Cat.” When this stray was found, Bill said “This is not going to be my

cat.” The cat had other ideas. Sorry Bill.

14. Very Delicious Omelet This wins my category of most bizarre. This kitty suddenly appeared on the back deck one

morning when the owners were cooking an omelet. Apparently they were good cooks, too. So

what else could they call her, right?
