What have you got?

[airhead]

Wife & 2 girls

3 females in the house - each has a cat.
Oldest has a cockateil as well.

I have a 55 gal & a 125 gal aquarium. Smaller is tropical - larger is native (bluegill, brim, shiners, etc.).

Lost a 14 yr. old dog this year (shepard/chow/mutt) and a very old cat the we adopted. It was time for both of them, but sad none the less.

Wife is starting to look at puppies since the dog is gone.

I\'ve been away the whole weekend... This is what I got:

This is Nietzsche, a male. He must be 4 years old now or so.

And this is Pelusa, a female we found on the street last February. We kept her. The vet thinks she was born round December.

Two aquariums. One for Goldfish one for tropical fish. :bouncy:

OMG!!! I wouldn\'t like to wager which is the higher cost.. your mortgage or your pet food bill.

Can we have a go at naming it?

 

[Cenobyte]

what about \"necksnapper\" or.... \"gut-eater\"?

no... \"spiro\" is cool.

 

[finn17]

I had a problem like that once too...

I solved my problem by introducing my \'pet\' to the concept of \'rent\'lol

Sadly, no pets just pet allergies. :~(

My Fiancee even had to get rid of her dog, before we could move in together. A really cool dog named Luxus. But we found her an excellent home with a really nice family. As a replacement we will be working on kids, which, luckily, I\'m not allergic to. lol

2 dogs, Jack Russel Terriers, Cassie and Connell.
On a side note Connell decided that a black wash bottle I accidentally dropped on the floor the other day looked very tasty and chewed it up. It took me quite a while to get the stain off the carpet and woodwork.

2 cats, a tom, Loki, and a calico named Lucky.
Lucky was pulled out of four lanes of traffic when she was a kitten, as someone had decided to drop a box of kittens in the middle of the road. I think that all \"lucky\" pets have interesting stories behind how they got their name.

The dragon belongs to my son, so I\'ll run it past him, in the meantime we can get some ideas...

@Cenobyte:
He\'s kinda small so Neckbreacker or gut-eater realy don\'t fit.. lol

I am sure you must have already considered and rejected this but, \'Fester\' springs to mind.:bouncy:

 

[kittykat23uk]

How about Norbert? Thats a good name for a spiny dragon. Or Spike? If its a girl you could call her Holly? Ral Partha did a shadowrun dragon called Dunklezhan that might be a good name - Dunk for short?

When we get a bigger house we will get a bosc monitor and call him/her Snookums.

Leopard geckos are great pets! Except for when they live in your bedroom and leave the noisiest cricket until last so it keeps you awake all night! I have to catch them and pull the wings off just to get some sleep!

You could always go with the unobvious - I had a red tiger oscar named Krazny Oktobyr (Crash for short) and another one named Puck - both for literary figures of sorts

Sounds like a built in alarm clock for when to stop painting. Just let em chirp away and when the stop, it\'s time to put down that brush.

Drawing from battletech, you could name the lizard Koshi - which I think is small death or little death.

asesino del grillo - Spanish
tueur de cricket - French
Kricketmörder - German
assassino del grillo - Italian
Cricket Killer - Englsih

I like the german one the best.

 

[kittykat23uk]

Well, they don\'t actually die when you pull the wings off.. they just can\'t make annoying noises, then Kai can just eat them at his leisure. lol

Yes I know I\'m cruel
