Mum and Dad.

[cuddlepop]

I just thought i'd ask my fellow orgers on the Pet Forum what they refere themselves as to their pets.

We say "mum" or "dad" when asking the dogs something.Drives my daughter mad as there is no way we're there natural mum and dad.:lol:

Darent post this on the "normal" notice board.Anyway we're allowed our wee quirks and voibles on here.;)

So fes up.

yep, im mummy to 2 of my cats and therefore granny to 3 others. oneday i may even be great granny as one of my "grandchildren" who moved to a neighbour will be allowed to date and have boyfriends oneday when shes a bit older. however to ensure she doesnt keep it in the family, my youngest grandkitty, 3 month old Mr Jingles will be getting his baubles removed after the xmas season!!!

funny to call myself granny, my own oldest people child is only 12!!!!

Yep Mum and Dad here too !! When I found out I was pregnant and we went to tell my parents I said 'Mum, your going to be a Granny again' and she replied 'Your not getting another dog are you' :lol:

[Liz]

Carasmam your Mum's response was so funny!lol

[cuddlepop]

Oh I'm so glad this is all so "normal" for you all.:D

When I told my daughter we were getting a wee brother for our Delious she flipped."its a dog mum,get real..."

I called myself 'granny' when I was speaking to my cat the other day.....then I went on to say 'now we'll just do the washing up' :roll:

Very unlikely that she was going to raise a paw to help :lol: so I guess that was just me using the Royal 'we' ... ;)

Yep , it's mam and dad here too.:Razz

[dousslesh]

I'm Ma and OH is Da to our two dogs . We also have conversations with them and answer on their behalf !!! :D
When I was younger (much younger and still living at home !) an entire language was devised by my family (well the kids anyway ) when conversing with our pets and each other; hence my name became Dousslesh, my sister became Cathgelt (or slugggy /slug) For some reason my other Sister and our Brother didn't seem to have different names.
Didn't stop with our family and pets , the dogs next door were also included in our bizarre world (Seemed normal at the time !) They were renamed Tin Ribs and Butch can't remember what we called next doors cat... !!!! Those were the days !

We (two) too, Mum and Dad, of course we have canine versions, such as old poppa (our oldest dog now 14) Aunty Amber (also 14), uncle snowball (aged 8) uncle Jed (also 8 and a rescue) Momma (the momma of our youngest who is 2),:)
