70. 🤣

Especially the last one. I love cats, but why oh why do they insist on sticking their butthole in human faces?

[Ocelot II]

71. This phenomenon has been the subject of scholarship:

11. Pets' names used as passwords by millions, study finds

Sorry to be the bearer of cyber warnings - this is not posted to offend, but to enlighten.

https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-56680790

The National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) said 15% of the population used pets' names, 14% use a family member's name, and 13% pick a notable date.
And 6% of people are still using "password" as all - or a part - of their password.
The NCSC urged people to choose random words that cannot be guessed instead.
Other problematic passwords included a sports team the user supported (6%), a string of numbers such as "123456" (6%), or a favourite TV show (5%).

[Ocelot II]

16. Which is why I only posted my cat's nicknames.

And I'm not about to use "idontwanttolookatyourbutthole" as a password, especially since they usually want numbers and characters and uppercase letters as well. So it would have to be something like "IdontWanttolookatyourButthole@834" which would be tough to guess but kind of a PITA to work with.

[Dear_Prudence]

99. Bulletin board at work

Had a posting by our security folks. It was a cartoon of someone complaining that their password had been compromised, so now they would have to rename their pet.

[debm55]

32. Should I erase this thread?

[Ocelot II]

49. No, people can post those names if they want to.

I doubt anybody is sifting DU for passwords, and they aren't identified by real name anyhow. I was joking about how I don't use my cat's name as a password, not about posting it here. It's a good reminder not to use a pet name, a child's name or a birthday as a password, though.

[debm55]

50. Thank you Ocelot II

[DBoon]

143. poor dog

[debm55]

33. Thank you Mad_Dem_X Give Scamp a hug for me.

[patphil]

18. I have a black male cat named Houdini, and a multi-color female named S'mores.

They're shelter cats, and came pre-named. Houdini is a real rascal, and gets into everything. S'mores is more refined, and a bit aloof.
But, they love to run around and rough house with each other. I guess months of cage living gave them a strong appreciation of being free to roam all around our 2-story house.
I hope our plants survive.

[debm55]

25. thank you patphil Wounderful names Houdini and S'mores. Hug the furbabies for me.

[JohnnyRingo]

29. My rescued feral cat is named "Scotch".

Scotch was found a couple years ago at an intersection in Youngstown after the smoke cleared from a shooting. My buddy who works at ODOT was sweeping up there when a cop told him this orange kitten was sitting there in the street. He took him home and made me adopt him.

He still has a habit of biting and scratching me and he avoids human contact, but I love him. At first I named him Sparky, but he quit chewing on electrical cords. Now he's named Scotch because of his color and that sometimes he drives me to drink.

Here he is in the OSP car shortly before release following questioning. He didn't see nothin'.

[debm55]

53. thank you JohnnyRingo. What a beautiful little cat. Scotch is perfect. Give him a little pat on the head from me, but

Don't get bitten.

[Jeebo]

61. My current feline buddy is Fred.

He was born in May 2012. I named him Fred for no particular reason; he just looks like a Fred to me.

His mom was Rose. I named her that because she was really pretty, but she had thorns. Rose got sick and I had to have her put down about three and a half years ago.

Before Rose and Fred was Riley. I named him that because of one day when I walked by where he was snoozing on the corner of a desk and I suddenly had the thought, Hey, this guy has people feeding him, opening doors for him, giving him affection, he's got a free meal ticket for life, he's living the life of Riley, so he must be ... Riley! (I used to watch that old TV show when I was a kid in the late 1950s.)

Fred, Rose and Riley were the perfect names for those three cats. Those names just fit them all to a T.

— Ron

[debm55]

62. Thank you Jeebo. I love your post on how you named your cats. Give Fred a hug for me.

[debm55]

73. Thank you ProfessorGAC Lovely kittens and dog Please give Vincent , Carmen and Margo a hug for me.

[Emile]

75. Vincent looks like he is getting his tail whacked.

[ProfessorGAC]

81. Yep!

He was wagging it at the end & Margo was playing with his tail.
Carmen, who's mostly behind the fridge, just after I took the picture, jumped over Margo & landed on Vincent's butt.
Vincent, turned his head to see who it was and nothing else. He didn't even move enough for her to fall off! He's a very good big brother.

[Emile]

85. He probably enjoys playing too.

[ProfessorGAC]

86. Definitely

He gets to run around with other dogs at the dog park.
The one near our house is nearly 5 acres of fenced in fun! Actually, 2 five acres areas, and a 3 acres plot for digs 35# & under.
It's in a huge forest preserve, and it's only 5 or so minutes from the house. So, he gets out there twice most days.
He's a lucky puppy, in that he came into the home well after I retired, so I've got lots of free time.

[ShazzieB]

We used to have two of the greatest dogs ever born. (Okay I am biased.)

[Ysabel]

96. Peshie is our cat...

Last edited Sun Nov 10, 2024, 09:45 AM - Edit history (2)

and Bubba is our dog - he already had that name when we got him - he's a rescue dog...

Pesh used to be Precious and was called Presh for short so it was easy to change his name to Peshwari and call him Pesh for short or Peshie...

Peshie is almost 20 years old...

Edited to add:

Peshie is a half house cat and half mountain wild cat grey and white and striped and speckled and is absolutely beautiful and adorable (mountain wild cats came over here from Scotland in the 1700's or there-abouts) he used to be really big he was over three feet long but he has shrunk in his old age he also has a W on his head for Wisconsin...

Bubba is a half Amstaff (he has a huge chest) and half big baby Black Lab - his ears are not floppy but instead short and pointy (he is very alert) and he's very smart...

Both of them know how to speak English (I taught them how)...

One time Peshie built a house out of a box and he tore out window spaces in it with his claws and also a door and then went in and peeked out at us...

One time Bubba took all his 50 or so rawhide bones out of his basket and lined them all up in a long row an the floor and I'm not sure but maybe he was counting them...

We have big howl and meow fests fairly regularly but we've toned it down a bit over the years thankfully we don't have very many real close neighbors there are a lot of businesses around us...

They tell us how much they love us over and over again every day...

[debm55]

148. Thank you very much for your post Ysabel for your love, understand and patience with Bubba and Peshie. You are an angel

167. Hotler, thatls not nice. What does he do to get those names?

[Hotler]

175. Normal cat stuff with extra attitude.

sits in the middle of the doorway to the kitchen so you can't get by and when tell him to move he just gives me stink eye, and when I go to scoot by he swats at me. And when you call for him to come in he runs like hell to the door and then stops, sniffs around, dilly-dallies, and all time seems to stop at the door.
It's his game, maybe you could talk to him.
It's all in fun.

[debm55]

178. Thank you Hotler. Mine does the exact same things. And God forbid you accidently step on her tail as you try to get

Around her.

170. Three cats (currently)

Tyger, Maine Coon mix - came to us chipped from the larger city 15 miles away, but the owner couldn't stop him from running away so we offered to rehome him since he likes it here. 13 yrs. old, he's lived with us for 8.

Olive, Gray Tabby - showed up in our shed at 4 months old when her mom disappeared (I was feeding her). Still slightly feral and inside only. Very hard to get her to the vet because we can't pick her up so we have to ambush her. 7 yrs. old.

Ziggy, Russian Blue mix - stray I was feeding but he kept getting into fights. I decided to bring him into the fold when he showed up with one eye swollen shut. Wild child. Talks a lot. Probably 5 yrs. old.

I have to mention the dearly departed Dexter that we lost to cancer at age 14 in September. Brown Bulls-eye Tabby. He was the undisputed leader of the gang and all cats loved him. We miss him terribly. Tyger still mourns for him too.
Also Professor Oak, I think he was classified as a color point tabby, my daughter's cat she had to leave with us when she moved to California. Passed away at age 11 from CKD. He was difficult but he and I bonded and I still miss him. I think Dexter was the only cat he ever made friends with.

[catbyte]

172. All cats. Sammy was named after my dad, Sam. Otis ran up and down my leg like an elevator

when he was a baby. Thank goodness he doesn't do that now because he's 18 pounds of muscle now. Rosie because that was her name when I adopted her after her former human had to enter assisted living and it suits her.

[debm55]

173. Thank you catbyte. Hugs to you for taking care and giving love to Sammy, Otis and Rosie. Please give your 3 cats a hug

from me.

176. Jerry, the un-adoptable barn cat

12 years ago I rescued Jerry from the humane society. He was supposed to be an un-adoptable barn cat who bit people. I brought him home to be a mouser outside, and he hung from every window trying to get in. My husband is allergic, but Jerry was persistent, and finally made it inside. He and I formed a bond, and he has been the best cat I ever had. He turns 17 next year. My husband takes allergy meds, lol.

[debm55]

180. Marigold, thank you and your husband so much. You are both angels for taking Jerry in. Please give Jerry a ear scratch

for me.

[yellowdogintexas]

188. We have 3 cats

1. Squeaker so named because he made a squeaky sound when he tried to meow as a kitten
Sometimes we call him Tubbo or Fatso - he is overweight

2. Missy - She and Squeaker have the same mother and look like twins. Her named just evolved

3. Eleanor - the Failed Foster. She has hated being touched by humans and won't get close to us. Because we thought she was a male, we named her Elliot Ness because she was "untouchable". WHen she went to be neutered, it turned out to be a spay instead. Thus Eleanor. She is such a loner, I often sing "Eleanor Rigby" substituting kitty for Rigby. Sometimes we call her Elly Belly.
Ellie fell head over heels for CatZilla, one of our Senior cats, and would snuggle with him all day. She missed him for a long time.

[debm55]

191. Thank you for the work you do and the love you show to your kitties. Give Squeaker, Missy and Eleanor a hug for me.

197. Our two cats: Dweebs and Lizzy. They seem to love each other. Dweebs is the best cat ever. - eom -

[debm55]

198. Thank you Exp. and welcome to DU. Give a hug from me to Dweebs and Lizzy.

[Exp]

199. Thank you! A female gray tux showed up in our yard mid-2018, a few months later she brought home an all black male who

whined a lot, hence the name "Dweebs". He had a major food insecurity going on but has been over that for a good while.

If I were to ever adopt a dog, I would name it with an "eeee" sound for sure, or maybe a funny name so that when anyone spoke its name a smile formed on the person's face. Dog's apparently recognize smiles as friendly.

I've been reading DU on and off for a good while, finally went with the name "Exp" as is the 1st track on the Hendrix album, Axis: Bold As Love.

Good stuff here!
