Crazy cat names

I believe I'm not alone when I say that I give my cats their "normal" everyday names, but then also give them "pet" names as well. Like I just finished calling my new kitten Becky "The Beckinator" !!! I am not sure why, I am not even sure it fits her but that is just one of the many "pet" names I come up with.
Take my Blog name Momma Catz, I am the "momma" to my cats, and "Momma Catz" is spin off from the late Momma & Poppa's singing star "Momma Cass" (I'm not saying I'm a good singer, but my cats do seem to love it).
I call my one and only male(neutered) Gus. Yet his Pet name is Gusbuster, because he busts into a room just like Kramer did in Seinfeld.
Bijou I call Peek-a-boo because she is shy and hides alot, but yet likes attention. So I call out Peek-a-boo and she peeks her head out from under the couch or chair. It really is very cute that she knows both names.

Above is a video of Bijou, she is very shy, but seems to like the attention she is getting from me behind the camera.

I think the strangest pet name I have given one of my cats is for Odette, which is the name of the princess of Swan Lake. This is where she was found (that story will be told in another blog). Anyway there isn't much that rhymes with Odette, but it does have an ring, or maybe should say Yodel. So I will call her by singing Odel Odel Odeltte. When she hears that she comes running with her tail straight up in the air. It's very cute and I will have to get a video of that sometime.

That's almost half my cats the rest will have to come in another blog!!
