Step right up and see the silliest-named animals on the whole internet! We've got cats, dogs, birds, and more with some very silly names that they've been given by their respective animal shelters. 

Animals wind up shelters for all sorts of reasons. Although most occupants of animal shelters are your average orange cats and pitbulls, there are other breeds out there that also need care. As you can see by the various types of birds, pigs, and rabbits, there are plenty of interesting critters in need of their forever homes. 

The shelter workers have to give these animals names pretty quickly. It's also not going to be their forever name; most people like to choose a name that matches their personality and lifestyle instead of sticking with the basic shelter name. But with some of these amazing and hilarious names, it makes you wonder if the animal's eventual owner kept it just for the laughs. 

Next up, read about these potluck dinners that went absolutely off the rails, like one person who admitted, that "Six people brought the same Walmart potato salad."
