I have done that too.... I say usually my daughters name, then my sons name, then the kitty's name finally. Some times I say hubbys name in there too. Usually it I just go through the kid's names first then kitty. No I haven't forgotten who goes with whos name, in the heat of the moment I just go through the names, and usually get laughed at too lol.
We have two Mini Schnauzers, the female belongs to DD, the male to DS. I ALWAYS call the dog the human name and vice versa. DD gets pretty upset when I call her by the dog name. Zoey is a pretty cute name so I can't understand why she's so mad! LOL
Haha! I so remember my grandmother who would call me by the wrong name all the time. She would go through a whole list of first her daughter's names then grandchildren. It would be Suzie, Debbie, Joan, ..... etc. I was the youngest granddaughter so it was a long list. It was usually by age and she did it to all of us. By the end she would give up and say something like hey you - whoever your are?? Then we would all laugh about it. Gosh I miss her! I notice I'm starting to do it too and I've called the dog my daughter's name as well.
The thing is, I yelled at the cat ALL 3 parts of my sons name, his first, middle and last. lol... You would've thought I would stop myself when I reached "Michael" his middle name. hehe
I am constantly calling the poodle by my son's name! Oddly enough, that doesn't seem to bother my son at all. He gets more upset when I accidentally call him by his father's name! Go figure...
I don't have a cat to yell at, but you're definitely not alone in using the wrong name!
My dad has 5 kids. And even when not yelling (he wouldn't be allowed to yell at me) he calls me by one of 5 other names before getting to me. All of my sibs plus my stepmom come before me. I'm surprised his two dogs didn't get in there.
What sucks most about it? I'm the oldest, the one he's known the longest.
