I had a cat named Keith as well. He is extremely handsome and has indentical markings as Tom from the classic cartoon "Tom and Jerry". He is the finest cat that has ever walked the earth. When I got married and had a kid, Keith moved in with my friend. They have a quite swinging bachelor pad. Keith was not the type to be tied down.

Salut, Keith!

Keith had some serious screws loose and would terrorize my roommate (now bandmate) John. Keith once bit John in the face while he was sleeping, had gashed and scarred and drawn blood many times and I've seen him chase John up onto the top of a chair.

Keith's eyes were black and lifeless like a doll's eyes....until the teeth would sink in and they'd roll back white.

One time we had many strangers crashing in our house and I was hanging out upstairs. upon a certain discovery, I ran down into the living room and hollered at John: "Keith Shit in your bed!! Keith Shit in your bed!!" This was much to the confusion of all the strangers who thought some dude named Keith shit in John's bed.

Keith was fucking evil, but we loved that little psycho.


I didn't hate Keith, but I know John did.

kerble is right.

My family had a dog named Henry. They found the dog under their car the day Hank Aaron broke Babe Ruth's HR record. They didn't name him Hank, because Hank breaks the two syllable dog name rule. Sort of a misnomer, since Henry wasn't very athletic.

Henry the dog was good at walking in slow motion. He wasn't stalking - he was walking in slow motion. There's a difference.

He was also very fond of giving himself a hard on, rolling over on his back, and letting the wind tickle his glans whenever there was a stiff (pun intended) breeze. My mother really disliked this behavior. My father always threatened to follow suit one day. He never did.

Henry also eviscerated a cottonmouth that threatened my father.

We also had a dog named Jesse, named after a guy my mom worked with, and a dog named Mango, named after a Mexican whore.

This is a very high number.


i live in a place of natural beauty, therefore a place that attracks many, many "hippies". if i had a dime for every time i met a dog whose name is some bob marley reference i'd be a rich man. i think i've met at least 4 kayas.

My wife wanted to name her dog after the shittiest rock musician she could think of, so that when people came over to our house, they would have to be reminded of him. Unfortunately, she ended up adopting an adult dog that was already named (Jack), so if you come over to our house, you don't have to hear, "C'mere, Glenn Frey! Glenn Frey! Get down off the chair! Bad dog!" and so forth.
Why do you make it so scary to post here.

My friends and I also prefer this approach.

"Shark Attack"
"xTHUGLIFEx"
"Fireball" (pronounced Fie-yahbaww)

A friend of mine (owner of cat "xTHUGLIFEx", though he insists on calling him "Graham") recently got a kitten and named him Marc. With a C.

I think this is pretty gae/y.

When I lived in Maine I had a cat called Tedy, with one "d" - as in Patriots' linebacker Tedy Bruschi. Some dope moved in downstairs with a big dog he screamed at all day and never walked. He called it "Bruschi." (Or, rather, "BRUSCHI!!! Lay Down!!!") I felt less good about my cat's name after that. Then I started saying it was for Ted Williams.

Curiously, me and my girlfriend-at-the-time tried calling him Keith for a few days after we found him but it never stuck.

I had Tedy sent out here to live with me when I moved to Colorado. He looks like a Tedy with one "d".

Not Crap.

My other cat is named Martina. Tina, for short.
