Name: Emily
Nickname: Emmerly. Sometimes I sing “Emmerly and Ivory” to her 😁
Name: Charlotte
Nickname: Char-Char
I also refer to them as “The Sisters” or “The Fabulous Staredycat Sisters” since they are in fact sisters from the same litter and love staring at me, visitors, and each other 😄
A rare moment of them getting along outside of having fun playfighting:
Things I love about this comment:
- Singing Emmerly and Ivory
- Emmerly’s mlem matching the cat food bag
- “Staredycat Sister’s”
- The fact that Char Char is a tortoiseshell, because I think they look like orange cats that got stuck in a sooty chimney

I think all cats are named “Stoppit.” It’s like in the taxonomy. Animalia cordata mammalia felidae stoppitae quitthatus felis catus
Her name is Beri. Nicknames: beko, bekos, or berko. As you can see in the pictures she’s a low intelligence specimen.
The last pic has big “phone home” vibes 👽
This is Zoe, aka Princess Zoe Peanut Butter Garbanzo
She got the name peanut butter from a delivery guy one day who was helping move in a new couch. She just went up to him friendly as can be and the delivery guy just went “hey peanut butter” and the nickname stuck.
Sushi
My wife and daughter call her su or more commonly su-su
If she’s in trouble then it’s Sushi Maki Roll <Our last name>
I call her Stink Butt because she takes the smelliest poops I’ve ever had the displeasure of smelling and then doesn’t bury them in the litter.

Omg you got your cat to sleep somewhere that’s not directly on the fucking keyboard!?!? Who are you so wise in the ways of cats?
The trick is having a decoy keyboard!

- Little Boyyyyyyy! (Singsong, obviously)

- Little Baby Man
- Stinky Boy
- Goofy Little Guy
- Crunch Boy (when he’s eating)
- Whiny Baby (when he’s feeling talkative)
Oh and my partner calls him Ollie.
Mr Oxenfree!
I had a cat named Buddy, and he would get up to a lot of mischief so we’d often refer to him as “the monster”. Once you start calling your cat “Buddy monster” you’ll find you’re a very short distance from “monster of buddies I’m pulling your strings”.
Here’s Buddy after wrecking his Christmas-themed RV:
SIMBA -> SIMBABIMBA

“No really my name is Alcatraz! Like the prison island. Dennis is just a nickname. I swear! Also you haven’t met my girlfriend because she goes to a different school, I talk to her on AIM.”
Scout
Who 99% of the time is Scooty.
She’s occasionally called: Scootybutt, Scooterella, Scoots, Scootyscoots*, Scuttles, Scuttlebutt, Scoutster (only ever used by my mom lol), Scootypuff Senior (a la Futurama, but she’s too old to be Junior. Scooty is 12.)
(*Edit: I should add that when using this one, it’s always pronounced as “ScootySCOOOOOOOOOOOTS” in imitation of our friend who coined this while drunk.)
We pretty much only call her Scout at the vet
I’ll add a picture when I get another break from workEdit: pic tax
Looking guilty after I caught her licking a plastic bag
Asking for attention/if she can steal my chocolate croissant
“Helping” me work from home
We also have a Scout. We also call him Scoochy, Scoutabout, Scootums, and You-Motherfucker. He’s orange and only uses his brief braincell time for evil. He once turned the gas stove on by himself.
Scoutabout and Scootums are both VERY good, we might have to start using those! 😁
