Happy National Pet Day! Two-thirds of us have at least one pet at home, according to the most recent stats. Dogs and cats are the most common, followed by fish, birds, rodents, reptiles, and horses.
97% of us think of their fur-babies as "part of the family." But we definitely get a little more creative NAMING them than we do with our actual kids.
Nationwide Pet Insurance has an annual contest to find the WACKIEST pet names in America. Last year's winners included a dog named "Doc PAWlliday" and a cat named "Spicy Beef PURRito".
