Disney pet names

Do you have a pet that has a disney name?
My mom only let me name one of our dogs something disney-related. I named her Tinkerbelle (combo of Tinkerbell and Belle!), she is a 4 year old yellow lab
Untill I get my own dog(s), I an not allowed to name a dog something disney!

When I was a kid, I wanted to name my dog Tinkerbelle, but my parents didn't think it would suit HIM, so I settled for Tinkers.

However, my second choice was to name him after his dad, Reefer (I wanted to go with Reefer Jr) and I could not for the life of me understand why my parents wouldn't allow it.

I wanted to name my cat Tinkerbell too, but thats my name! :-)

So I settled for Twinkle Star instead. Its very fitting for her.

I have a labradoodle named Nala. Any dogs we get in the future will also have a Disney related name.

We have a miniature dachshund that we named Dash! We have already all agreed that any pet we ever have will have a disney related name.

My mother's two cats are Lilo and Stitch. And wouldn't you know it, Lilo is the evil one who gets both cats in trouble, then sits there with this "who me?' look. Stitch just wants to sleep and groom, endlessly.

Not to bring everyone down but up until Thursday night we had a cat named Mickey. He went to the vet to have a tooth extracted and we think had an allergic reaction to the antibiodic. He passed away about 6 hours later. I'm going to miss my buddy. Sorry to make everyone sad.

Awww, cknorr28, I'm so sorry about your cat. I know how hard it is to lose a beloved pet. Sending pixie dust your way...

I'm so sorry about your cat. We lost one about 6 weeks ago and we're having major issues with our other one. It's so hard! Feel free to PM me if you need to talk to someone.

None of our pets currently have Disney names - maybe next time! My kids have named the chipmunks in the yard Chip and Dale (and there are 2 of them) - does that count?

Pre-Toy Story, 1988, I was given a mini dachshund puppy for Christmas as a HUGE surprise by my hubby. She was absolutely adorable...teeny tiny and wiggly. I named her Slinky due to the fact that she looked like a Slinky going down the stairs!

A few years later, Disney "copied" me!

Sadly, Slinky is now in puppy heaven, however, we have a blood relative of hers sitting under my desk...named by my boys...Pippin for the Lord of the Rings and a lunatic named Chewbarker! (there is not a disney name crazy enough for this puppy!).

My DD14 has a two year old Yorkie-Shon. Her name is Belle. Is she ever a princess? Spoiled rotten! We all love her to death. Tried to buy her a Belle dress, but couldn't find one.

We have 2 cats (plus another cat and 2 dogs) that we adopted from an animal shelter when they were kittens. We were told they were both girls and were dropped off at the same time, but they were not sure if they were from the same litter. Anyway we take them to the vet to be checked out and were told everything looked good. We got them home and named them Tinker and Belle. We enjoyed playing with our girls. I had to take them back to the vet shortly after for some shots. The vet looked at Tinker and told us she looked to be about 14 weeks old. He then looked at Belle and looked at me and said, "Belle isn't a belle, he's a Bill". I was shocked. The vet then gave me a brief lesson on kitten anatomy and how it is difficult to tell when they are little. He also told us "Bill" was about 12 weeks old. We have since renamed him and he is now Dudley.

Our two dogs are litter-mates named Belle & Aurora.

We have two miniature dachshunds. Dutchess, named after the mother cat in Aristocats, and Copper, named after Copper from The Fox and the Hound.

Our 6th cat is named Tinkerbell. However, somehow over the past 7 years it has changed to "Stinkles". They both suit her!

She's a little beauty, but she's quite the little stinker!

Our 4th and 5th cats (brother and sis) were found at the edge of some woods. I named them Hansel and Gretel.

I have seven animals and wanted to name them all after Disney characters but DH got to name a few:

Dog-Nala
Cat-Minnie
Cat-Daisy
Cat-Dory
Cat-George (not technically he came with that name, but I can always say it's after George of the Jungle)

We have two other dogs names Scooter and Pinto, those were DH's idea, but when I'm at Disney I always think if Scooter in the Muppets!

I like that.

My pets don't have any Disney names but we did name them after some famous characters. We named our pug, Roxy after Roxy Hart in Chicago. We also named our Siamese cat Ferris after Ferris Buller's Day off.
