Here’s to every pet-related worker who has to deal with “Her name is BELLA you’ve seen her before just look her up.”
You’re a real one. May you grow in power for every Bella in your system.
I don’t say this to shame owners for their pets names.
But please know that if you bring in your goldendoodle Bella, or your black cat named Loki, or your corgi named Ein - Please give staff some additional info to help locate your pet’s information. Approximately 1/10th of that database is filled with pets who have the exact same name and breed as your animal, don’t get mad if we can’t find them immediately please.
The 605 Bella Smiths in our system would like a word with you.

Like, you try getting one Teddy at a doggy daycare/dog camp to listen to you when there’s three other Teddys in the group. They don’t know their last name. They’re all very cute names. But going out with the dogs at my job is like when I was a kid and literally ten percent of my class was named Jennifer.
I remember taking my cat, Steve, to an animal hospital. To my knowledge, there was not another cat named Steve MyLastName there. There was however a vet tech by the name of Steve MyLastName.
Apparently they distinguished them by calling them Human Steve and Cat Steve.
