    Surnames for pets?

    I was wondering if your pets/cats have a surname when they go to the vet or a reminder notice sent in the mail. Bastet's full name is Argyle Princess Bastet DesertSands. Anyone else have a surname for their pet(s)?

    Names!

    I changed my Abys' names when I got them. Once I knew they would not be used as breeders or show cats I decided on the "one word name" for registering. At the Vet's, when they get issued a prescription or medication, the Vet always adds my last name - Miley Smith, Graemer Smith, Gabe Smith...hehehehehe..makes me giggle every time I see the bottle/tube. Even X-rays have the sir name. My guess is that they use the name of the "payor"...on the check.....and to make appointments.....I did have a Scottish Terrier, long ago, and his name was Jacob Dougherty North (not my sir name, for sure)......He was a fine doggie and lived to be 13. My previous Aby was named Katmandu of _______ ????? <----- the breeder's cattery name.....the usual.....

    My cats don't have *official* surnames. Their unofficial surname is Getoffthetable.

    Winston's full name is Winston Winkle Whitewall - he was found in an old tire, hence the Winston (a brand of tires) Whitewall. Winkle comes from my hero Mr. Winkle - www.mrwinkle.com

    Mine too! Sometimes they even have theme songs.
    Squirt's full name is Squirtmaster J. Cat and Lynn's full name is Lynnseed Enigma. My first furfriend's full name was Nutley Samantha Seedling. And of course, our newest family member, Augustus Cattus Sillyius (Gus)...

    Of course they do--it's the same as mine!! When I was having tags made up for them I asked to have the surname added, the clerk looked at me like I was completely insane so I asked him "Don't your kids have last names?"

    Yep, I've got Tubby Hanson and Peanut Hanson. Terry was about rolling on the floor the first time I asked him to pick up Peanut's prescription and the bottle said Peanut Hanson. He was wondering why they didn't have his last name. I just told him when he starts cleaning out their litter boxes, they can have his last name.

    At the vet they usually just use my last name for them. So I guess they are Tibby and Corkscrew Ybarra.

    Thanks for the great signature Kay!

    Filou's name was Solo of Isis' Temple. The breeder called him Mini, because he was such a tiny boy. But I knew from the beginning that Filou would suit him better.
    Tigris is just called Tigris and it is his name also in his vaccination booklet.
