For Navi, the left cat, we call her Chunka Munk, Plasticat, and Ms. Infected Lips.
For Scorpi, the cat on the right, we call him Mr. Small, Spider Cat, and Crybaby.
I have never seen a cat look so much like one of those worm-on-a-string toys
Here is mon chat, mon chameau, mon chaton, mon petit, mon petit prout, my darling, my princess, my good girl, my delicate cupcake, my pweshuss and so on. Yes she is bilingual.
Mon p'tit prout 💨
I don't speak French but that emoji gives me a clue what that nickname might mean 😅
I think you've got it right, she is indeed a little fart
Heureusement que les voisins ne comprennent pas quand je l'appelle 🤣

Precious and Vicious, can you guess which one is which?
I’m going to guess vicious is the one on the left, given the right cat’s wary look.
Yup, Juno is always on guard next to Nova.
Rocky (a.k.a. Brown-noser) and Adrian (a.k.a. Monkey face)
That is just a ridiculous nose. The nickname is apt!
This is Lucy, but at some point early on in our relationship my wife started calling her Chichi and it’s stuck.
They are adorable!
They are! I was only going to get one cat after a nasty divorce, but found out they were a bonded pair and went home with two. They keep the silence at bay. I couldn’t picture my life without them.
For our Triscuit, we call her Triss most of the time. We really want another cat, a black one, to name Yennifer.
My black car is the most loving creature I've ever met. I hope you get a good one!
I'm more partial to red cars myself. :P
Lol I'm leaving it
Usually she was Sasha, but if there was ham in the room, she was Ham Cat.
We lost her about two years ago.
I lost my first cat to FELV before he turned a year old. Losing a cat hurts a lot. I hope you and yours are getting by okay.
I have a William Shakespeare and an Edgar Allan Poe! We generally call them William and Edgar, sometimes "Babies" when referring to them collectively, and sometimes "You little shit!!!" when Edgar is up to no good.

A friend of mine calls his boy Luci (yes, a nod to the Disenchantment series) "a sack of buttkicks".
Cutie Pie Pumpkin Butt
I grew up next to a Norwegian neighbour who called our cat "Kattepus", and I have apparently picked up and kept the habit of referring to my own cat that way. He's also called Baggy, because being a black cat everyone wanted me to name him Bagheera
The ginger is Sunny, and he is an old man adopted from the RSPCA, months after his first hooman died, and my own 12 year old ginger passed from pancreatic cancer. I call him Fluff Butt, Floofus and Furbag, but at 4 am in the morning, he thinks his name is "Fucking shut up, cat!". It has taken 2 years since I adopted him, for him to make eye contact or to even purr, but I'm pretty sure he loves me now! He never misses pat and brush time. I think his previous hooman was a woman, and I'm male, so it was a big change along with the grieving. I love him! The voidie is Zebby and he belongs to a neighbour, but has bonded to Sunny and myself and eats, plays, sleeps at our place. If he's not harrassing Sunny, he is glued to my ankle, or asleep in my lap. I call him shithead, meatball, stinky cat and other such endearments, but he is the most loving cat I've ever known. When he spots me outside, even if he is with his actual owner, or the girls up the road who fawn over him, he will instantly RUN to me, and as he gets closer, his tail goes from horizontal to vertical, and as he arrives he jumps so his head contacts my hand, because he simply can't wait for me to bend and pat him. At such times, I call him Dancer or Prancer because he looks like he's dancing around me. I think it breaks his owners heart but she is very gracious about it, even offering to bring food for him so I am not out of pocket. I have great neighbours, both feline and human. Edit: I just recently found out that Sunny visits Zebby's owner every day for pats, so the circle is complete :)
The stories of both cats are adorable and heartwarming. Congratulations on not giving up and sticking with your adopted cat for those two years!
So, his actual name is Louie. In no particular order, he also goes by:
Louie
Lewis
Douglas Luis
Doug
Duggie
Duggie boy
Doog
Dooglarse
Dougie Howser MD
King Louie the XIV
Lewis Hamilton (but said in a French accent for some reason)
Handsome boy
Chuuchi boy
Babycat because although he's a full-grown 14lbs adult, he has a kitten-like pitch to his vocalizations.
Fill in the blank: "You fuckin ________"
- Asshole
- Dickhead
- Mongrel
- Shitter
- Shithead
- Hellion
Their names are Booker and Hollow
Booker's nicknames are Book, Bookbookbookbookbook, Stinky, and Baby because his meow is tiny and he's baby
Hollow's nicknames are Mister Man, Kermit (his meow sounds like Kermit swallowing a tennis ball), Holla at ya homeboy, Stinky, and Chocolate Boi because he turns chocolate brown in the sunlight.
They're both so stupid and I love them.
sweetie and "you dumb sack of shit".
sack shits everywhere. I keep sack around because nobody will take them and I don't want them to be abused.
honestly I look forward to the day someone takes this cat from me or the day it's no longer a burden.
sweetie is a sweetie, even so. they hate sack and refuses to be around them.
we treat them both the same, but I wouldn't be sad if I woke up one day and didn't have to clean shit up off the floors.
Lickii Lickii Poo'naani.
Or if she's looking regal, Scphincter Von Lichtenstein.
My void was nicknamed Itty Bitty when I fostered him. Of course, he turned into a permanent family member and never got a new name. His full name became Itty Bitty Kitty.
We have two cats, a void and a grump. The voids full name is Robert but he goes by Bob, my wife calls him "little kitty" because he was a tiny kitten when we got him, I call him "you fat fuck" because he got up to 19 lbs before we started putting him on a diet (14 lbs now)
The grumps full name is Norman (as in Norman Bates, serial killer) but he goes by Norm (as in not normal), my wife calls him Normie and I call him "shut up you" because he's constantly crying about something
My cats name is Lucifer and I call him Luci, Luc (rhymes with goose) and I also call him Goose a lot. Its like he's my ugly duckling. He loves cuddles and cries when he isn't given all the attention. Is 3 going on 4 year old. I adopted him from a shelter where he was returned twice. I understand why but he's just my big baby now. He name is also synonymous with "Fuck off", "Quit crying you asshole" , and "Why the fuck does your shit smell so bad?"
Mine is Dyson because he eats any kind of food (regardless of who is eating at the moment) and he will always lick the plate cleaner than it was.

Cori -> Cori Borealis (similar to Aurora Borealis)
Its very fun to say.
Two cats, but either one can become "stinky" if their attitude matches.
My cat’s name is Spooky, since black cats are a common theme on Halloween (hey, that’s today!). We don’t call him Spooky very often, though. We often call him Spucky or Sporky, both originally mispronunciations of his name that someone said that we found funny. We also call him Scoopy, Kitty, Catster, and Mr. Cat.
This is him after I opened a tube treat for him.
(And no, my floor is not dirty. It’s old and damaged linoleum that looked like hell even when it was new.)
Houdini! Guess why lol
Gusfraba, we call her "little monster", "bugg", also "the huntress"
Our boys passed on several years ago but their nicknames were Munch and Wee. Short for munchkin and wee boy. Sometimes wed called them The Munch and The Wee, like they were important titles.
ok its not a specific nickname for any cat, but i love calling our boy cats "hantum" [handsome] . i just go "hey hantummm!! hi hantum boyy!" when i see them and they love it
Grumpzilla and Grumpertons
