>Anyone know of any really bizarre names people call their pets?

It wasn't real bizarre, but did sound sort of funny--we had a friend
who named his dog Cocaine.  It was fun to stand around while he called
it and watch the neighbors stare.

My cats are Stinky, Tiny, Phantom, Hiril, and Elliot Slippers.  Nothing
bizarre there. 

>Especially bizarre pets?

The most bizarre pets I knew were the snakes (especially cobras) a
friend used to keep.  But he didn't name them.  He said it was silly
to do so since snakes can't hear anyway.

By the way, he found a great way to get rid of people.  He was being
plagued by door-to-door preachers of the Jehovah's Witness variety.
He came to the door once wearing his 11-foot boa constrictor.  He said
that the man and woman were really nice, didn't even mention his
necklace--but they NEVER returned.
