Apparently their little boy is a massive Harry Potter fan Maureen lol. Our wee boy is much more simple, Tom, although he often gets referred to as Tom Jones, imagine the calling there, get out Ron Weasley, get in here Tom Jones lol.

One of mine is a big Black Boy called Phoenix - my neighbour’s litle boys were Harry Potter fans - the boys are now preparing to go to University so he has been with me a few years. My other boys are Felix (he stepped off the Felix food box) and Mark. Mark came into my our garden a very small bedraggled bungle of fur a couple of years ago - he was chipped and I traced his original owners - he had gone missing from them 6 months previous but they didn’t really want him. He stayed with us. He is called Mark because when we found him my husband said he was Felix mark 2 - they are so alike - so he became Mark. I can tell you a story about cat names - I used to foster for the Cat Protection League and once had a cat brought in to me to foster - he had been left in a taxi in Nottingham very late one night - the girl in the taxi couldn’t pay her fare so she left her cat instead - he was a beautiful Pedigree Russian Blue. We ofcourse called him Taxi and all was fine until he started going out in the garden - the neighbours thought I was loony when I went out into the garden to call Taxi - caused quite a lot of amusement. - Maureen

Loving the pet names 
We’ve had lots of pets over the years, our latest is a semi-rescue budgie - she came for her hols from a friend and never went home. At the friend’s house she was constantly nervous and terrified of everything…in 5 days at our house she was hand tame and eating everything we gave her! We called here Chiquitita, meaing Little little lady or Small yellow banana (she’s completely yellow). She sings along to Abba on the radio and the words seemed appropriate. Still won’t fly out of her cage though.
Here’s mine for today

Back in my schooldays I knew someone who named their goldfish Widdle and Puke.

Pets … 2 dogs, Max and Cookie, both rescue so already named
3 bearded dragons - Spike, Shakespeare and Bullet - none of which I agreed to having in the house but they got sneaked in without permission!
Likewise the snake - Pete - named by my daughters, a bit of an odd one for a snake!
We used to have 4 chickens (Moonlight, Starlight, Speckle and Thursday who hatched on a thursday!) and 2 rabbits Snowy and Hazel but they all had to be rehomed with relatives as the dogs used to chase them too much!
@WhimsyWooDesigns Shirley, I think I can remember her saying she is having a break a few weeks back x
@NOfkantsCurios Natalie I have a sale for stationery tally please

Thanks

Hi @ShropshireNaturalProducts when i went to look at your listing there were no pictures, no idea why 
Hope you don’t mind me saying but you have nothing in your “about me” section on your shop page, it would be nice to read about how you make soaps what inspired you, what products you use, if Natural, Organic and such, it would help buyers decide if they wish to buy or just get to know about you a little

Greeney - who lived to be 14 years old.
Rascal
Bonkers

Have read the thread and I am sure I was going to comment on more things but can’t remember what now.
Anyway hugs if you need them.
