What is the story behind how your pets got their name?

  • We have a cat called Groot, for no other reason than we’d seen Guardians of the Galaxy and my wife really took to the character. Our Groot’s a girl, but that’s okay because all Groots are Groot.

    We also have two rabbits. One’s called Peanut because he looks like a peanut (well, less so now he’s older), and one called, err, Jim. My wife’s a vet, and was looking after him at home on behalf of a pet shop during COVID due to a respiratory issue. Jim was the name the shop gave him. We both decided we wanted to keep him, and the name had stuck by that point. We got ourselves Peanut to keep him company.
