If you have a pet, chances are you renamed them once you brought them home to you. Since there are hundreds of animals at shelters at any given time, they often just get random generic pet names like Buddy or Max. Then, once you've adopted your little fuzzy bundle of joy, you might want to let your kids name the new family pet, or give them the name you've always wanted your fur baby to have. 

Well, these animal shelters got a little more creative with their pet names.

Others got named after celebs, like one feline named "Squintin Tarantino." 

Check out all these hilarious names below! Maybe they'll give you inspiration for the next time you and your family decide to add a furry friend to your family.
