I don’t know about things at your house, but each of the animals at the zoo has at least 4 or 5 ‘pet’ names. I wonder why they are called ‘pet’ names? And why are special people called ‘pets?’ (And why is it bad to be the ‘teacher’s pet?’) Is that because they are loved so extra special much? Louise, aka Lulu Belle, Lulu, BooBoo Head, Boo, Lunny, Milky Toe, has about 7 names. What’s your ‘pet’ name? (Do pets have ‘pet’ names?)
Just another DogDaz morning at the zoo ❤

A pet was originally a spoiled child, and only later applied to animals. One of those cases where the meaning of the word changed dramatically over time.
And we’re boring so our pet names are pretty derivative: Zel, Zelly, Puppy, Puppup, puppy wuppy

Well, a spoiled child works in this zoo. Each ‘pet’ here gets a lot of attention. My human children will say they are not spoiled, but they are too.
