From the publisher

It's unclear how or why it happens, but when you get a pet, you somehow become a nickname-generating machine. All of a sudden, their given name is just not enough to sum up all that is your furball. Clutch, for example, has been Clutcharama, Cloo Cloo, Boo Boo, Stinker Doodles, Luvvie Loo. The list is embarrassingly much longer. As we get ready to unleash full episodes Oct. 4, we thought it would be fun to create a montage of all of our Furball Confidential guests' nicknames for their pets. So we did. Enjoy - and follow us for more furball content.
