Got it. The "regal" look. We know it well. They're trying to look
all noble and dignified and everyone (they and us) knows damned well
there's a Labbie brain inside that head (BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!) When
Boomer assumed that pose we referred to him as "Dog, MISTER Dog" (like
"Bond, JAMES Bond"). We even had a collar we cut off a white dress
shirt that we put on him with a black clip-on tie for formal
occasions.
Oh, yeah. Life with Doc & Mrs. Doc has had its moments...

I name my cats after dead relatives. I know that sound weird, but there are
some interesting names among my ancestros that arent' going to get used by
people because they're Old South or Czech, and antiquated. Like "Edna
Pearl."
I like human names for cats. Sometimes a name just comes to me, like "Ted,"
instead of my choosing it from old names.
I use silly pet names for my pet fish, like Fido, Spot, Fluffy, Sparky.
I guess the short answer is that I like pet names that make me smile.
You'll never catch me naming a pet Lucifer or Atilla. Unless it's a
ultra-cute critter that the name sounds silly on.

That's not weird, lady - that's downright bizarre! (and funny as
hell...) ROTFLMAO
I like your style.

We had a betta fish named Lucifer.
It seems that everybody I ever met that had more than one cockatoo had
one named Atilla. I guess that says something about the personalities
of the birds. (G)
