RE: What's you pet's name

I sell my pet's name.

You know, kind of like how corporations buy the naming rights to stadia, i.e. The Molson Center, GM Place, etc.

I call up businesses and I say "I'm buying a dog. Would like me to name my dog after your business? I'll do it for $1,000."

Later, when guests come over, I introduce them to my new dog.

"This is my new puppy, 'Joe's Garage and Muffler Shop.' "

My cats name is Khan. This summer he ate most of the baby bunnies
off the property. I love Khan but I like bunnies too,I think when Khan
goes to his reward I will get an herbivorous pet, perhaps a white lab
rat.
I live in a remote area and the cat is a great companion and the country is good for him but I,am constantly made aware of the damage both cats and dogs do to the smaller critters on the land, my cat kills everyday whether he,s hungry or not. He shares the kill with me as is common with many cats, he comes through the window announcing the meals with cat noises, drops the rodent or bird at my feet and waits for a pat. I,ve not yet eaten anything he got yet but if things get any worse I may have to.

What about the children?

Hahaha!

I actually did that once.

A month before my son was born, on April 2, I sent out an email to several of my friends that my wife had given birth the day before at 11:55am, and we've named him "Morgan Stanley", after Morgan Stanley gave $20,000 to do so.

With the exception of one, all my friends responded "Congratulations." Only one of my friends got it.

We've had a Mr. Rosewater and a Howard W. Campell Jr., and anybody who has read Vonnegut will recognize those name.s

My favourite cat was Tar-Baby, we had him for just shy of twenty year. Now we have our dog, Angus No-Fangus (he was missing a fang when we adopted him). He just goes by Angus, except on formal occasions.

Nine pets, yikes. I have a dog named "Harley Davidson". My husband had just retired and was nagging me for a Harley. So when he called me in a panic from another province wanting to adopt this abandoned puppy I said yes we could if I could name him. When he called me later from the Hotel and asked what name I picked out I said "Honey you now have a "Harley". He is part Lab and Jack Russell, and lord is he hyper. He looks like a lab with a rat's head.
