My pets have not so run of the mill names...

When I was a kid, my dad got a family dog... I got to pick it out, but he named her "Spatzi"  Spatz in Austrian means "friend"  He was from Germany and knew multiple languages...

My current clowder:

Boy (Blue Sepia and White) 25# RagaMuffin, camed pre-named WaterFur (nod to Erin Hunter's Warriors book series)

Boy (Red McTabby) 20# Maine Coon, I named Ollie, or OllieFur, a nod to Oliver and Company, the movie

Girl (Brown Patch Classic Tabby) 14# Maine Coon, I named Dachsi... I had wanted to get a Dachshund and name it Dachsi, but at this point, I don't want a Daschshund but I wanted to us the name :)  Dachs is German for Badger... Hey, I do live in the Badger state, so it works...

Girl (Blue Point) Himalayan... DD named her WillowBreeze (nod to Erin Hunter's Warriors book series)  I wanted a small cat... Breeder said her girls range from 6 to 8#, with her largest being 9#... guess how big Willow is... 9#...

Water is the only critter overweight... by about 5 to 7#
