You are guilty of this.

Don't claim you aren't. Don't claim that you have successfully ignored your dog or cat in a cute pose and not said something that, coming from a grown adult's mouth, sounds completely and utterly retarded.

What stupid things have you said to your pet when overwhelmed by their adorableness?

I have called my favorite cat (the other one's kind of moody) Emperor Biggatron Turbofloof. I will admit this without shame.

Kiya gets called Booboo and occasionally Honey Booboo. Or poopybutt or whatever comes out of my mouth without thinking. I did it for some friends once in a way to make her howl for them. I'm not quite sure if the "wtf" were for her or the way I said stupid things to her.

Buttercup, the skink, gets called butteredstuff a lot. Mostly cuz of the movie Half Baked.

You humans bore me
My beagle, Roger, is rarely called by his name. What started out as a generic term of "Puppy" slowly transformed to "Perpy" (ermagerd meme style), which very quickly developed into "Derpy". He is now known mostly as either Derpy or rear end in a top hat. rear end in a top hat is because of the huffy way he acts when he hears a car door or other sign of life outside the house. How dare them!

Callie the cat is generally referred to as Miss Callie, Kitty, or Pretty Kitty. Very unoriginal.

I recently adopted a tripod Rottweiler named Eileen. She's 5 months old and impossibly adorable. I regularly tell her she's a savage little monster and ask if she wants to go eat babies. I also called her "Skippy the Cripple" and may have sang a song about it to the tune of "Frosty the Snowman."

Dogs in my house are also called "sniffer-woofs" and "puddle-butts".

God, I say so much embarrassing stuff to my cat and call her so many things. I will generally make much of her and say things like "What a kitty you are! You are just *such* a kitty, look at this kitty-face!" Kitty-Face is a semi-common name. Her name is Jackie, but I generally call her "Jackie-Cat" as it somehow sounds cuter or something.

When she's purring loudly and being affectionate I call her "Big Purr". "You are such a Big Purr! etc". Also, "BigPaw", as reference to her enormous front paws which actually look more like a normal cat paw with a slightly smaller cat paw growing out the side of it, than a thumb. I mean she has 16 goddamn toes on her two front paws alone, so BigPaw she is sometimes. When I am feeling proper she is "Miss Jacqueline". When she's lashing her tail about she's "Little Miss Tail Lash," you get the idea.

It sort of sucks because I didn't get to name her, and I'd never name a cat "Jackie", it's just not something I would ever do. So part of me resents that a bit.

When I get home every day I greet the dogs with a high pitched squeaky DOOOOOOOGS!! I have accidentally done this out of habit after coming home from dropping them off at the boarding kennel and felt like a complete idiot.

I also ask them if they are, in fact, dogs and if they were aware of the fact that yes they are dogs. Sometimes they're even GOOD dogs.

I constantly just call my cat "Idiot" or "Tard."

He's always almost falling off his tower because he can't sit still and he'll fart in his own face when cleaning himself and scare himself because of it.

Yeah, my cat would never do any of those things and I wouldn't call her idiot or 'tard because she seems to have a surprising understanding of the English language and when I say anything disparaging to her, I feel like looks genuinely hurt at times (yes I realize I'm projecting and likely making it up in my head) but I feel like some cats are honestly sensitive enough to pick up on that stuff! So I try to stay encouraging. "Yes, you're such a good girl. You know that, yes you are! You are a good kitty, is what you are, little miss good kitty. Indeed. What a good kitty!"

Frankly, it really is a good thing most of us probably only talk like this when we're alone with my pets because just transcribing it is a little sobering in how vapid it is.

I give him tons of praise, pretty much just exactly as you posted but I just can't help calling him some names when he does dumb things. Almost always after he does something he looks around the room like he's hoping nobody saw that. Then he just meows and purrs to try and make me forget what he did by being cute.

Our dog is regularly called Pooper, Poops, or Woober. (His name is Wylie)

Our girl cat is Bread Whore, fat girl, Nerva, and Minerva bad cat.

Our male cat is Old man cat, and that's about it. Chuck is hard to nickname.

All of these names are said in either super high dumb voices or completely dead serious tones. The dead serious tone for "bread whore" would probably upset uninitiated onlookers, but they don't have to immediately hide any bread products lest they be ripped into and ruined with in minutes of entering the apartment.

there's mia-maya, maya, mimi, mia baby, baby girl, cutie patootie...the list goes on, but generally mia-maya is the one she uses the most. I have no clue where she even got that one.

I don't even have an image of what I want to be. I have nothing. All that exists is zero.
My cat's name from the shelter is Oscar. I kept that on his documentation like his chip and vet records because it's just easier. I often call him Boxcar because it sounds cooler, it's phonetically similar, and it's not like the fucker ever listens anyway. It's also fun to call him Oscar in as exaggerated a German accent that I can muster. (I do not speak German at all.)

This cat has no idea what the gently caress his name is even supposed to be probably.

My Cat has a multitude of silly namesnames. Most of them involve a verb relating to what she's doing followed by "pants," or "butt."

Examples: "silly butt," "stretchy pants," "hungry pants," "fuss butt." (Rotten Pants is probably the most common one)

The silliest ones are structured a bit differently, it usually consists of a verb describing what she's currently doing. The initial verb's ending is modified to have an ending of "-le." This is followed by said construct repeated with the first letter replaced with "B" or "Bu." For Example "Snoozle Boozle." This one really started years ago when I would feed her she would start walking substantially slower to the feeding spot and I would say "move your fluffy butt," and somewhere along the line that degernated into "fluffle buffle."
