Poll: Your Pet's Names

Just thought I would post these sites where you can read about pet's names in literature, on TV, commercials or in movies. Fun to look at if you love your pet or enjoy reading about animals.

So -- today's question is what is your pet's name, past or present, and what kind of a pet did you have with that name?

The pets in my life.
Growing up:
1. Candy the black and white cat. He had his own agenda.

2. Dolly the Cocker Spaniel -- piddle queen.

3. Oreo the black and white Cocker Spaniel Beagle mix -- always pimping a ride in the car, truck, on the office chair, lawn mower, or motorcycle (not mine!, my brother's). He had a lot of personality.

4. Mr. Sloan - Golden Retriever Irish Setter mix - a really nice dog.

My dogs as an adult:
Honey, Misty, Checkers, Scooter, Mitzi, and Kelsey -- all Bichon Frises or "Beeshee Bozos", happy go lucky garden variety little dogs who suffer from "bad hair" days periodically.

My Zebra Finches: Mr. Boston and Ms. Maine, the original named after the train line. Ms. Maine seemed to enjoy killing off the "husbands", guess she was a "desperate house finch". My mom compared her to Elizabeth Taylor (number of husbands only).
Her other "husbands" were BooBoo Boston and Baby Boston. She had many babies which were given away to good homes. Ms. Maine lived to be about 8 years old before I found her keeled over stiff in her cage one morning.
It was a sad day in my life. I enjoyed the Zebra Finches but birds are messy pets.
