ok, I'll start with the kitties first...

Scout -my fraidy cat who I rescued from dehydration outside my apartment. I was at a loss at what to name him until my boyfriend suggested Scout. I thought that fit, you always had to hunt for him when you got home because he was still afaraid of humans and I was thinking of Scout from To Kill a Mockingbird also...but why did he suggest it...because to him Scout was stealthy like a scout sniper(gee can you tell BF is in the Marine Corp?!)

Gigi - Again Joey named her because it's *his* kitten. He said she was a pretencious little miss and deserved a pretencious name. I wanted to name her Sophie. I just thought she looked like a Sophie. Oh well

Rory - My first fuzzy. I liked the name Rory ever since I was reading a novel at the time I got him and also saw a tv show where the character was named Rory. Plus he was such a baby ferret that the only sounds he made sounded like a baby lion trying to roar.

Lola Strictly named for personality and a song. She is a very determined spoiled ferret. At the time I heard the jazz song that went "whatever Lola wants...Lola gets" so that had to be her name.

Jax Named for a soap opera character. Ever since I saw Jasper Jax on General Hospital, I loved the character and name. So when Jax was given to me by a lady who's son's ferret gave her severe allergies I anmed him Jax(the son had named him Weezer before and he just wasn't a Weezer)

Max After I adopted him from the SPCA, he spent a week with no name except baby. We finally decided on Max because it went so well with Rory, Lola, Jax &Max

And that is my zoo!
