Nicknames

Ranger, our dog, goes by "pooper" frequently, and thus so does every other pet in the house "tiny pooper" "green pooper" flying pooper" "feather pooper" Which lead to a lot of laughing recently, because neither my husband or myself use strong language or "cuss words," but I pointed out to him that we basically call all of our pets various versions of "little poops."

ROFL. I'm really like flying pooper lol. Puts a nice image in the head. That reminds me sometimes I tell Ducati he's being a little turd bucket when he's in a particular bad mood.

These are great everyone! Unfortunately (for him!) Kiwi has several..."nicknames". I'm sure if he understood english, he would be offended by most of them:54:

"Gentle friend"- (thinks to myself) "Maybe if I say it enough, it will come true!" Power of positive thinking kind of thing you know?:09:

"Budbud" Kind of a digression from "Buddy" since Kiwi prefers being spoken to in a squeaky baby voice

"Tyrannasaurus K"- Need I say more?

"Cthulu" or "Tulle" I think this one is also fairly self explanatory to anyone who has spent time around amazons:52::
