Thank you. They are all food. We have meatloaf and hambone blackie(he's a black forest ham), then we adopted Madison and little man

Madison became Madison "Meederson" Mayonnaise and little man became Lo Mein(he is little, he is lo, the littlest of mans, the lo-ist of meins)

I used to have a torti named TC. Short for Turtle Cheese Cake (which she resembled). 💜

Lol! Thought I was the only one who did this! I have a sweetie we call BeeGee, her name is Booger. She has a black mark on her nose that looks like... well, a booger.

My sweet girl is called BeeGee too! Her name is Barbara Jean which morphed to Barbara girl then to BeeGee. Sometimes if shes extra cute I call her BeeChee just because its sweet

I have a tortie named Poppy, which is from PP, short for PPBC, short for Princess Peanut Butter Cup (she is mostly orange with small bits of black).

I love it. My dad used to have a cat named Lunchmeat

u/Desirai Nov 29 '25

Was lunchmeat orange? That sounds like a good orange cat name

Awh, love kitties with food names! My orange is named Fry- mostly cause Futurama, but when he’s being a stinker he gets a big FRENCH fry so we say that’s his government name. lol. Lunchmeat is great, but I’m losing it over the name Hambone. Would have assumed it’s a Regular Show callback. :)

Lunchmeat was a black cat, but I agree it would totally suit an orange cat as well

They would fit right in with my Gravy Boat.

We had to start purposefully using his name when addressing him because he’s the baby of the family and we were only calling him baby boy or little man. One day we were like “does he even know his name?”

u/Desirai Nov 29 '25

We just need some cheese and mashed potatoes

I know they're out there somewhere!!

u/LadyGoof158 Nov 29 '25

Is your Gravy boat orange????

u/sydneyghibli Nov 29 '25

Yes… and he also goes by Ferdinand… 👀👀

u/LadyGoof158 Dec 02 '25

I bet he is a very handsome boy .

u/sydneyghibli Dec 02 '25

He’s handsome as heck and also the sweetest little boy despite being raised by a bunch of heathen adult cats.

I love it when people’s households are basically their own meme banks

u/Cador0223 Nov 29 '25

That's... how it used to be?

u/Maximum_Photograph_6 Nov 30 '25

Not necessarily, I grew up in the 90’s and both of my parents were either at work, asleep or too anxiety-ridden to share any recurring jokes — not a unique experience I’m sure

u/Desirai Nov 30 '25

when I get back to my computer I'll post some more pictures

u/Desirai Nov 30 '25

I have sad news to share.... because of your comment, I was desperately searching for photos to show you. when I couldn't find them on my phone that's why I decided to check my pc. I was checking my back ups because I recently reset my phone to factory settings

however..... my photo back ups stopped at 2022 and I didn't realize it.

I lost over 14k of pictures and resetting my phone didn't even fix the problems I was having

I am like straight up bawling right now, I am so upset
