redhotchick Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 We have cats called Lexi and Loxi, but they get called Inspector and Boxi, amongst many other names Inspector because she is always inspecting, and Boxi because it rhymes with Loxi and she often sleeps on a box! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patsylabrador Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Daphne, we went through a phase when we enjoyed Mozart's operas and Fiordiligi (I didn't look up the spelling) was a name of a character we liked. The name suited the little cat 🙀 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajm200 Posted January 13, 2019 Author Share Posted January 13, 2019 (edited) The new chickens have been renamed by the.children. The white one is still Duck as her bok is still more of a quack The black one previously known as Star is now ‘Gawky’. Falls off the perch, cube ladder, etc. Is guaranteed to upend or poo in the treat tray or trip coming out of the cube run. Gawky means clumsy; child one used a Theasurus to choose the name. - first book he’s picked up this year (it’s a geeky tech-obsessed pre-teen so that’s my proud mummy moment! 😂) The brown one is ‘Cookie’. Sweet and brown. Named by Child 2 - Girly animal obsessed 10 year old who saved £30 for her own chicken - I raised one right 😂 😍) Edited January 13, 2019 by ajm200 Eyesight? What eyesight?

ajm200 Posted January 31, 2019 Author Share Posted January 31, 2019 When we talked about naming the new chickens, my son said “Do you remember the goldfish Ben and Billand?” I’d forgotten until that point. Hubby named the goldfish, the very little kids got it muddled in in a funny sweet way and we gave up correcting them 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
