Okay, My house mate and i have two Green tree frogs as pets  .
After much deliberation we decided on their names 
Helevorn (Black Glass) loves climbing on the glass
Aldaron (Lord of Trees) prefers hiding in the vegetation
If the meanings are off please let me know, my housemate went looking through the Simarillion for names.
Everyone we tell thinks were nuts  but i like their names. Just thought id share.

I think that it's rather cute.

Hi Luthien,
They are Litoria Caerulea or White tree frogs.
They are a species of Australia and New Guinea. They are more commonly know as green tree frogs because of their colour.
They are so funny to watch.

Just make sure you don't co-habitate your frogs with dogs. I had a lovely little green lizard and my 12 pound doggy swallowed it whole, then coughed it back up. We came home and it was lying in a pool of tummy-juices. It lived for two more days though. We suspect it died of internal injuries...and perhaps trama.

Don't ask whatever happened to my guppies when my ignorant 8-year-old self decided that it would be nice if my pet turtle co-habited with them in the aquarium.
Needlessly said, turtle ate the guppies.

We just got an aquarium and so far we have 11 fish. Out of the eleven, I got to name three ... one of them is a midnight / metallic blue beta whose name is Gil-Galad. Then we have a silver angel fish whose name is Ithildin, and finally this tiny fish that scavenges food off the bottom. He's Smeagol. My kids came up with the other names ... all of them a combination of Disney and Harry Potter.
So you see, you are not alone !

Thank-god we dont have dogs
 The other night Helevorn managed to escape and ended up jumping on my housemates head at five in the morning.
It gave her such a fright.....I know i shouldnt laugh but it was so funny.

"Poor" being the operative word. They have my sympathies - hopefully they are all out of their mysery now, and you've burn the records.

Hey! Take That were cool and I will not have a bad word said against them. And there's no way I'd burn my CDs and tapes, they're my childhood. Actually, I've got the greatest hits CD with me at uni... maybe I'll just give it a listen...
And by the way, fish are sadly no longer with us, so they have no misery. My mummy flushed them down the loo  (after they were dead) |

What sort of cats are they?
I used to work at a horse stud, we had cats Hyde and Jeykll, dogs Pitta and bounce, (horses of course too many to name) ferrets, two cows and a sheep called dinky. Almost a complete menagerie (spel?) All we needed was a camel.
We named my brothers cockerspaniel Barney after Barney of the simpsons (he loves his beer).

Yeah, I'm quite proud of them. Better rat-control than any poison could be! Plus, they've intelligent as hell.
The fact that they're cute only added to their pricelessness =)
