Pronunciation: pree-fuhrrd

Sentence: "Who is my Little Man?" the master always asked and then answered, "I am...I'm your Little Man." The L.M. knew it wasn't the dog who had to live outside. He, the Little Man, knew he was prefurred. Who else had people talking for him? Who else got to sleep on every couch and bed in a stream of sunshine throughout every day? Who else got to lick clean every bowl of yoghurt or ice cream? Who else got his ears and neck rubbed until his eyes rolled back in his head? Who else got to manipulate (manipawlate?) to shreds with impunity (impawnity?) every soft coverlet and carpet in the house? No one else--no one, but The Little Man...that's who!

Etymology: Using PREFERRED, meaning to be favored + FUR, meaning an animal skin, hair

Pronunciation: Al-lure-ay-pet-dumb

Sentence: Pepper would meow and scratch on the door with excitement as if she couldn't wait to see Kay come in the door! So,Kay would rush as fast as she could to open the door coming in from work.(Kay would often think awwww Pepper missed me!) Kay reached down to pet Pepper...saying," awwww, you missed me lil Pepper!" Then...Pepper would let out a hiss and swat Kay's hand away and dart off as fast as she could running and skidding sideways across the wooden floors to go hide for hours!(Pepper was no where to be found) Kay sat down for a while then unpacked from her travels,then finally went to take a relaxing warm bubble bath. Pepper slowly came creeping up to Kay like nothing had happened. Pepper lovingly purred as she looked up so sweetly at Kay with her soft blue eyes...Kay reached out to pet her then Pepper raced off again to the kitchen to go sit at her food bowl meowing loudly! Kay toweled off and went to the kitchen to see the adorable "alluraypetdumb" expression of Pepper glaring up at her until Kay fed her! Kay went through this same treatment every time she came in from work and Pepper kept up with her "alluraypetdumb" attitude every single week! "Oh, but Pepper was so cute!" (Kay thought,as she was rolling her eyes and mumbling dumb cat,gosh I love her!)

Pronunciation: ədôrəbläb

Sentence: Wes thinks he owns a cat. He is wrong. That thing that eats cat food, purrs when scratched is not a cat at all. Cats are barely domesticated creatures that hunt mice and other small critters. Cats are agile and light of foot. Wes’ pet is none of these. What he has is an adorablob, a cute, treat eating, litter soiling lump of fur with the about as much ambition of a sofa cushion. Last week Wes had to trap and remove a mouse that was starting to establish a nest on Fatty McButterpants’ belly.

Etymology: adorable (inspiring great affection; delightful; charming) + blob (an indeterminate mass or shape)

"Fatty McButterpants"! That's great! ...Although it reminds me of NJ Governor Christie, who is not so cuddly.... - karenanne, 2010-11-05: 13:15:00

Pronunciation: pol lee kod del

Sentence: When Old Lady Harris finally passed on from Shaker's Acres to the Great Beyond, the only thing she left her niece, Bethany, was her beloved, Hyacinth Macaw parrot, Polly. Polly could talk, incessantly, as it turns out and demanded all Bethany's attention. It turns out,too, her aunt had treated Polly like a baby and as a result she had been able to pollycoddle the raucous bird and spoil her rotten. When Polly did not get her way she screached and swore loudly. "Oh well," thought Bethany, "at least she also left me a few bucks to buy food and supplies for the bird". It was with horror then that Bethany read that parrots like Polly lived to the age of one hundred!

Etymology: Polly (popular name for a pet parrot) & Mollycoddle (a pampered darling;treat with excessive indulgence)
