Cute Pet Names: 5 Tips for Picking the Right One!

Posted on May 23, 2010 under Aquariums | No Comment

Are you searching for cute pet names for your new dog, cat, hamster or other pet ?  If so, keep reading!  Cute pet names are a very common choice among pet owners because let’s face it, what’s cuter than big eyes, wet noses, wagging tails and soft, cuddly balls of fur?

Even though cute names for our human loved ones might prompt other people to wince or do worse (ever seen the “Shmoopy” episode on Seinfeld?), cute dog names, cute cat names and cute pet names for other types of pets are absolutely acceptable .   

Now, I don’t want to get too pedantic , but the dictionary definition of cute is “attractive in a dainty way”.  Words like “precious”, “sweet”, “little” and “innocent” are also affiliated with the word “cute”.  If you’re ready to search for the perfect cute pet name for your new pet, here are a few practical tips :

1) Hunt for names with repetition .   Boo Boo, Gigi and Kiki are recognized as cute names, probably because they’re associated with the repetitive style of ‘baby talk’ (and like pets, babies are high up there on the cute-o-meter).

2) Find names that end in ‘y’ or ‘ie’.  Nearly any name can be made to sound cute by including the sound ‘y’.  For instance , the name Doug doesn’t sound too cute, but Dougie…well, that’s another matter .  Alfie, Pinky, Snoopy and Tippy are more examples of cute pet names ending with the ‘y’ sound.   

3) Choose names that are associated with being small.  Guppy, Baby, Bubbles and Petal are all examples of this.

4) Think food.  You know that expression “cute enough to eat”, well perhaps that’s why Cupcake, Muffin, Cookie, Honey, and Pumpkin are such popular cute pet names!

5) Pick terms of endearment.  Many people use names like Angel, Baby and Princess to address their precious humans, so why not use these names for pets too ?

There are genuinely hundreds if not thousands of choices when it comes to picking out a cute pet name.  Remember to have fun while you’re looking for the right one – and make sure that it’s something you won’t feel embarrassed to call out in public. Good luck, Shmoopy!

How do you really clean a 10 gallon aquarium with fish in it?

I have heard things, so many contradictory. I have 5 small fish and lost the tank in late April. I can see, gunk clinging to the artificial plants.

For weekly maintenance, you must have 10% remove and replace the water it has had with water the same temperature that added conditioner to remove chlorine and chloramines. Stresscoat works well for them. At least once a month, you will need gravel gravel vacuum with a vacuum cleaner and carefully from the humus. This time you may need to remove the% more than 10 to do your cleaning. Every week or two weeks if you change your water, take out the filter media and rinse it in the old water mill. Artificial Plants begin to build algae growth and the only way is to remove it, remove them and scrub them one. No soap or chemicals, however. The fish will not mind Your hands into the tank. Please have no lotions or perfumes on your hands that will pollute the tank. **
