I also call them “Monkey Tits”.

I do not know why.

I have a 20-pound 20-yo cat that I call ‘shitnugget.’ Thanks for asking.

The Little Dog: Winston. AKA, Winstonian, Numbnuts, Doofus.

We used to have a girl pug named Jasmine, who we called “the Jazmanian Devil”.

Ma and I named our newest find Mitzi on the way home from the person that bred her, she was going to be my dog. But because she was so goofy and clumsy I nicknamed her Goofball. Everybody loved her, she was shy when she met everybody but warmed up quickly once she realized you wouldn’t hurt her. Mitzi was one smart dog that had a bell she rang when she needed to go outside. Miss her dearly. She how resides on our fireplace mantle as she’d developed cancer at only 11.
