I'm always making up stupid baby-talk names that make absolutely no sense and I do it like I'm talking to a baby - "You're just a widdle biddle mooshoo boo boo poo poo moo. Yes, you are. Yeeees, you are." Or sometimes I'll say something like, "You want some fwesh waa-waa (water) Itsy Bitsy ShooKoo Poo-Face?"
What nonsensical baby-talk things do you say to your cat?

I don't talk honest-to-Pete baby talk with them, but do elongate and otherwise emphasize certain sounds they like in whatever I'm actually saying to them. (Hellllooooo, Ssssandycattt. Oooohh, how's da keeetty? Hmmmm? How's da keeetty-catt?) The smart ones prefer real words, I've found, whether they understand most of it or not. I've found they pick up on inflection and other tonal qualities better than actual words. (We had one cat that would "answer your question" anytime you ended a sentence on a rising inflection, as though you really were asking him something. Of course, his answers were a little monotonous -- mew and/or meow -- but his timing was pretty good.)

I call one of my cats a Mighty Mouse Masher (she's a ruthless killer) and another cat gets called Cutesy Bean or Greeny beanie. I guess most people who have cats are a little wacky.

I call my boy cat, Julius, "my little Julius man" or "my little dude", etc. I call my girl cat, Creamsicle, "little Miss Creamsicle" or "Creamsicle girl" or even "Creamy". I do all this in a baby-talk voice.
Pathetic, I know. But people who own cats ARE a little wacko.

I used to call my cat Bugsy... "bugabootus" or "Bugsy Otis". My brother used to call him "the little man from tibetan". Not sure HOW we came up with these names! My current cat is Lefler, but I call her "the boojababy".

My cat was my baby so I was always talking to her in baby-talk. She had various nicknames, ranging from 'Mummmy's little girl' to 'my oogie-woogie' to 'Fifi-kins'. She was constantly being asked if she wanted more 'foody-woody for her tum-tum' or if she wants to go 'nap-nap'. Poor cat probably thought I was mad!

I sing to them. I make up stupid lyrics to songs I know, and make sure their name is about every third word.
It's humiliating.
They love it.
I'm not certain what they love more, the song or my humiliation.
