Pet NamesI once knew a cat called Lenin. It got diarrhea so they renamed it Trotsky. Tell us the name of your pet - but only if you've got an amusing or interesting reason for it. Tiddles need not apply.

FishMy (recently deceased) goldfish was called Sushi, after the joke:
"A dog is not just for Christmas, with luck there's some left over for Boxing day".
As my mum was allergic to dogs she got us a goldfish instead, and we heard this joke on the TV a couple of days after the purchase of the fish. The name just seemed appropriate at the time. With hindsight maybe it was a little bit cruel. But the fish did live to be over 12 years old, so it can't have minded that much.
