Upvoting for Big Guy.
I used to know a woman who would make up names like “North American yodel-hound” or “white-toed chipmunk dog” as the breed for her dogs.
I had an African giant bassist hound
Are they available for jam sessions?
My mother has been searching for one of those since her first run in with one the 70s.

I’ll care about cat breeds when my cat starts showing that she cares about anything.
My dogs are purebred results of hot street corner love and 100% dog. Dunno what’s inside, they’re a good boy and girl. My little shelter kids.
Dog brand dog.
It’s a dog brand dog world.
Ha yes, the yellow no-name breed.
My cat is named cat. Best name for a cat
mine is catzilla
oh you don’t know oranges. It may be a generic name but they have a very specific set of skills lol
Dog owners:
- What a beautiful dog

Cat owners:
- What a cute cat
- it followed me home from the trash bins, i cal him cat
it followed me home from the trash bins, i cal him cat
Two of my adopted cat are being named “cat” in my language.
In my defence, vet need a name and i couldn’t think of one.
My adopted little girl is still listed as Popoki in her adoption paperwork. I think that is close to Cat in Hawaiian.
We are firmly landlocked in the Midwest.
The vets that I have experienced tend to use the human’s surname as the pet’s surname. If that’s the case with you also, it is humorous to imagine a cat’s chart basically saying “Cat [your last name]”
I named my first ferret “Girl” and her sister “Yu”. One of my turtles is named “Turtle”. My creativity knows no bounds.
I did name my dog Sophie though, so one out of four could be worse.
When I was a kid we had a dog named Monkey
Well we learn how to name stuff the more we do. My third cat is Tina and my 4th cat is bean in my language, so a step forward.
I had a “cat” cat too, but nothing to say in my defense. And I named the cat who came in my yard but wasn’t mine “big nose” because he had a big nose.
my friend had a cat named bird. I’m sure it’s not only but i always found it funny
Cat chads press F
We have a big, white, mixed breed dog. People ask us all the time if she’s a Great Pyrenees, an English Cream, or what have you. She’s a dog. 100% pure dog.
That’s the best kind of dog.
Is that from Kenshi?
unrelated but MUCH more pressing issue: Kenshi 2 when??
Dog from Half Life 2
Half life 2
one of the dogs of all time
We had a farmyard crossed dog that lived for almost 17 years I called him a car-puk-eh because of his lifelong affliction with motion sickness.
Used to work at an animal shelter, and I can count on one hand the number of cats we’d ever had that were anything other than “D(S/L)H (color and pattern)” or “(pattern) Siamese”
Good! That means not too many breeders are interested in fucking up their health for the sake of some stupid feature.
Enough are though. Those poor munchkins are supper popular. And rag doll cats are bred to be almost idiots because some assholes thought it was cutentonhave a breed whose most distinct behave is flooping stupidly on the floor
At the shelter I volunteered at, they’d occasionally get a purebred, but they’d still advertise them as DLH (or whatever) because they didn’t want to attract the type of adopter who cares about the breed.
What’s D, S, L and H?
Domestic Short/Long Hair
not all dog owners
You could put 20 cats in front of me and put a gun to my head and I couldn’t name a single one.
Not even Garfield?
A lot of people asks if my cat is a maine coon, because big and fluffy –but he doesn’t have other features. I always answers that he’s a bastard (meaning mixed origins).
Mine’s a bastard too. (though no mixed origins)
Mine’s too. (cus he act like one)
Is that Jambo?

Well let’s see, known cat breeds:
Orange, Tuxedo, Standard Issue, Void, Siamese (my parents had a flame point siamese that was weird), naked wrinkly cat, Fluffball.
Think that about covers it.
Edit: Oh yes, Torties and Calicos, and I forgot one I love: Tactical Issue! Some people think they’re just sneaky cats. Nope! Grey and white stripes that blend in well with urban environments
There’s also spicy cats, which include wild cats and big cats.
Spicy cats are kind of scary tho
Especially when they’re not very far away from you without a cage or glass between it and you
Russian blue! AKA “grey cat”.
i’m pretty sure screamy baby is a cat breed
Most of those aren’t breeds, they’re patterns. A calico can have tabbies and torties in the same litter
No I’m pretty sure Standard Issue is a breed
/whoosh
I think the tactical issue should have been the giant flashing neon sign.
Calico!!! tuxedo plus orange
um and torties i guess
I have a standard issue cat that has a bit of orange in her. She is super chill and affectionate, loves being held and is quite vocal when she wants something (uppies or treats). Although she doesn’t really exhibit any other traits of being an orange cat.
Smoke cats!
Don’t forget the recently discovered Salmiak!
I’m pretty sure that’s where alf is from
Ginger.
Seriously though, why do the yanks call ginger cats “orange”?
