Grusha and Danila Kozlovsky
The domestic actor and director goes against the fashion of having purebred pets. However, Danila himself did not suspect that a few hours before the New Year he would acquire a faithful companion.
The story took place near a Georgian resort called Kazbegi. On the eve of the holiday, Kozlovsky and his beloved Olga Zueva were walking and accidentally discovered a homeless mongrel. The couple couldn’t pass by and sheltered the dog to hand it over to good hands. However, later Danila changed his mind and kept the dog for himself.
As it turned out, the unexpected meeting with the future pet was not only the beginning of a great friendship, but also contributed to a change in the actor’s worldview. Since that time, Danila has actively supported the public movement to protect homeless animals and encourages others to adopt pets from shelters.

Escobar and Alena Vodonaeva
The media personality, better known for the television project “Dom-2,” maintains her Instagram page with enviable regularity. It was there that her fans first saw a large and black Maine Coon named Escobar. By the way, the latter bears a similar nickname to one of the largest drug lords in the world.
Unfortunately, Alena did not officially talk about the origin of the animal’s name. However, it can be assumed that it is connected with the nickname of Vodonaeva’s previous cat, Coconut.
Ekaterina Varnava
Actress, TV presenter and participant in the humorous television show Comedy Woman Ekaterina Varnava has an adored pet named Birkin at home. This is a long-haired dachshund with a light cream color who loves her owner with all her heart and does not want to let her out from under a warm blanket in the morning.

A post shared by KATYA VARNAVA (@kativarnava)
The comedian shared touching photos of her four-legged pet online and said that her four-legged friend has a good-natured disposition and constantly requires attention to his person. When the owner is distracted by the phone and social networks, the celebrity’s dog gets offended, and in the morning he comes to the comedian’s bedroom and insistently wakes her up. In addition, Birkin loves to play with Catherine's hair and loves the smell of coffee.
Fofa and Lera Kudryavtseva
The popular TV presenter started Fofu back in 2014. It is noteworthy that after a short period of time the pet got its own profile on Instagram.
Lera spent a long time looking for a suitable representative of the Scottish Fold breed at various exhibitions. During one of the events, she noticed a little kitten and immediately fell in love.
Judging by the owner's reviews, Fofa has a balanced character. However, as soon as the hostess prepares for another long departure, he begins to interfere with her packing her suitcases and becomes very nervous.
Zivert
Russian pop singer Yulia Sievert got a charming little pet in 2019. A black and white girl of a rare breed of Shiba Inu received the nickname Muni. The celebrity shared the good news with subscribers on Instagram. Fans congratulated Yulia on the new addition to the family and asked her to devote more time to her new friend.

A post shared by ZIVERT FAMILY (@_zivert)
When the puppy grew a little older, he began to watch with interest the vocal exercises of the mistress and often even sang along with the mistress.
Daisy and Sergey Lazarev
The singer and actor met his companion before one of the rehearsals of the theatrical production “Talents and the Dead.” By the way, Sergei named the dog Daisy in honor of the character he played in the play. Surprisingly, at that time the pet was five years old - exactly the same age as the play.
A few years later, Lazarev became the owner of another dog, which he named Lisa. Sergei took her from a shelter and, like Danila Kozlovsky, advocates not buying expensive pets, but saving homeless people.
Naomi and Angelika Varum
The star owner sometimes calls the charming cat of the Singaporean breed by a simpler name - Nyusya. The latter appeared in 2014 along with her brother Osya.
It is noteworthy that Angelica’s husband Leonid Agutin was initially against pets, but later became more friends with them than Varum.
The color of cats has a slightly symbolic name - sepia agouti.
Alexey Vorobiev
At the beginning of 2022, singer Alexey Vorobyov told his fans good news: he had a new pet Welsh Corgi, who received the “musical” nickname Mozart. Alexey considers his dog a true and faithful friend, companion and co-author of his creative works, but he jokingly calls him “sneaker destroyer” and “sneaker ripper.”

In honor of the dog’s first birthday, the artist published a post on his Instagram page with congratulations and touching wishes to his four-legged friend.

Chelsea and Olga Buzova
Olga got a perky Spitz named Chelsea during her family life with football player Dmitry Tarasov, who gave Buzova two puppies.
The second puppy is a representative of the Yorkshire Terrier breed named Eva. It is possible that it was given in honor of the bobtail that Olga had as a child.
The media personality does not part with her pets and visits beauty salons with them and even runs Instagram accounts on their behalf.
Dog names of stars
Sheriff Alexandrovich and Oksana Fedorova
In an interview, the Miss Universe title holder admitted that as a child her parents did not have the opportunity to give her a dog. However, Oksana can afford such pleasure for her children so that they learn kindness and responsibility.
Unfortunately, Oksana never talked about the details of such an extraordinary animal name.
By the way, Fedorova also has a mongrel Baron Alekseevich, a Spitz Zephyr and an Abyssinian cat Muana.
Michelle is Anna Semenovich's favorite
The ex-soloist of the group “Brilliant” had long dreamed of having a dog, but friends and relatives constantly dissuaded her, arguing that such an animal was capricious and needed special care. However, Anna recently decided to get a puppy. She went to the breeder and chose a Chihuahua dog, giving her the nickname Michelle. My favorite Semenovich has grown up and turned into a real lady. The owner periodically takes her to a dog salon for a manicure.
Do you have pets?
Bertik and Ksenia Borodina
The dog received not only an extraordinary name, but is also a representative of the rather rare Cavalier King Charles Spaniel breed, named in honor of the monarchs Charles the First and Second, the grandchildren of Queen Mary.
The pet is extremely friendly and Ksenia’s children simply adore him. In addition, Borodina has a cat named Shanti, who has lived in the family for more than seven years.
Statusname
An animal, even if it is a pet, does not need a nickname; it lives well as it is. People, giving names to their pets, want to individualize them. Often this nickname manifests a deep emotional experience or the internal mood of the owner.
How do politicians live?
The dog names of celebrities among those in power can tell a lot about their early biography. For example, Emperor Alexander III, studying with Moscow State University professor Solovyov, became infected with a love for Kamchatka. He named his dog Kamchatka. During the train accident of 1888, of all those in the same carriage with the emperor, only Kamchatka died. Which Alexander III very much regretted.
As a child, French President Francois Mitterrand was delighted by the heroic epic of delivering medicine to diphtheria patients in Alaska. This operation went down in history as the “Great Race of Mercy of 1925,” and the main character was a husky dog, Balto. While president, Mitterrand named his dog this name, but in the French manner - Balti.
US President Richard Nixon loved English checkers. This is the name he named his spaniel.
In general, according to American ceremony, the first person of the state must have a dog. And each president’s dog had some original name.
George W. Bush was a sports fan in his youth and admired world champion boxer Barney Ross. He named his presidential terrier Barney.
Buddy was the name of B. Clinton's Labrador. But in American slang it sounds like Buddy.
Dmitry Medvedev's setter's name is Artemon, and his cat's name is Dorofey. The reasons why the animals received such names are unknown.
Information on the name of Vladimir Putin’s Labrador is even more closed. The official name of the Russian President's dog is Connie Polgrave. In principle, this is understandable; the name of a KGB officer’s dog should not evoke any associations.
The name of Stalin’s dog deserves a separate story. In 1912, Stalin was sent into exile in the Siberian town of Narym. There he lived in the same hut with Yakov Sverdlov. But unlike Sverdlov, who behaved like an intellectual, monitored cleanliness and was constantly engaged in self-education, Stalin preferred the company of exiled criminals and disappeared every day in the local tavern. Sverdlova was infuriated by his sloppiness and uncleanliness. Stalin found Sverdlov’s pomposity very amusing. To top it all off, Stalin got a dog and named it Yashka. And to annoy Sverdlov even more, he let the dog lick his plate after dinner.
However, there are many cat people among politicians. The nicknames of cats of celebrities of the political elite are much more saturated with semantic meaning.
Pontiff Leo XII named his cat Micheletto. In Russian it would sound like Koteiko or Kitten.
Cardinal Richelieu's cat was named Perruque. According to one version, the poet invited to the cardinal, the Marquis de Racan, put on a wig without noticing the kitten sleeping there. The surprise was revealed only during the reception. The kitten was named that way - Wig.
There were many cats in Winston Churchill's life, but two stand out. The first is Nelson, named after the admiral. He lived with the English Prime Minister from 1938 to 1947. During World War II, the cat even sometimes attended meetings of the military council. Churchill's second cat was Jock. Churchill was already 88 years old when he was given this kitten. They became very attached to each other and the fluffy ball was constantly in his arms. Most likely, this is where his name came from - Jock (a slang name for a jockey at the end of the 19th century).
In 1965, during a visit to India, L. I. Brezhnev had a meeting with the Dalai Lama. The Tibetan high priest gave the hero of the USSR a white cat. This cat lived in the country residence of the Secretary General until 1982, when he fell under the wheels of an official ZIM. And the name of the purring gift was Lama.
Although Valeria Novodvorskaya can hardly be called a politician, she is a fairly well-known person in this regard. So she named her cat Saucepan. Most likely, only an old maid could come up with such a name.
Names of media personalities' pets
People of art are more creative and the dog names of Russian celebrities sometimes do not fit into the usual framework. For example, V. Mashkov has a terrier called Pear, and Anfisa Chekhova has a dog of the same breed called Coffee. One can assume that the star owners simply love not only animals, but also these foods.
This theory is supported by the name of the next terrier - Chelsea. This is what Vadim Oleynik, a singer and fan of the English football team, named his shaggy friend.
And Ksenia Borodina loves not only apple pie, but also philosophy. That's why her terriers are called Strudel and Spinoza.
Leonid Yarmolnik also has two terriers - Cupid and Solomon. But Yarmolnik claims that he loves only his family.
If you don’t pay attention to Philip Kirkorov with his dog Pokemon, then all terrier owners are surpassed by Yulia Kovalchuk, her pet’s name is Melody of the Blue Pearl. True, at home the dog responds to the nickname Melik.
Chihuahua owners have a special view of the world. Dogs of this breed are very small and touch the hearts of any owner; Lera Kudryavtseva named her baby Businka. Hollywood star Paris Hilton named her dog Tinkerbell. In Russian this translates to “Ding-Ding”, like the ringing of a bell.
Madonna named her pet Chiquita, translated from Spanish as “Little”.
It is more difficult to understand the Ukrainian singer and composer Max Barskikh. After the release of his album “According to Freud,” he was given a male Chihuahua, which he named Sex. According to the owner, this is what the dog likes to do with soft toys. And six months later, Sex got a girlfriend, Sausage, of the same breed as him.
No less strange nicknames for the cats of pop stars.
John Lennon had a dozen and a half cats in his life. Among their nicknames there were Major and Minor, but the coal-black Salt and the milk-white Pepper stood out more.
Freddie Mercury was also a cat person, but he deliberately named his pets that way in order to destroy associative ranks. In particular, he named one cat Goliath, and the other Delilah.
Sergei Bezrukov lived with a Cornish Rex named Ryamzik for almost 15 years. This is a derivative of Ramses. This quick-witted cat stood out because, accompanying his owner on tour, he independently collected towels in the hotel room, pulled them onto the bed and formed a nest out of them, in which he slept.
In 1988, a young cat jumped into Armen Dzhigarkhanyan’s car and thereby warned the artist against a collision. For this he received the name Philosopher and lived with the actor for almost 20 years. Oksana Fedorova keeps at home a graceful black cat Bagheera, who gets along well with her parrot Sarah.
Roman Bilykh from the group “Animals” named his fluffy cat Herring.
Pavel Volya's Maine Coon is huge, weighs more than a pound, and his name is Boomer.
A little about the pets of people of art and intellectuals
Joseph Brodsky was sure that cats love it when their nickname has the letter “C”, and that is what they react to. That's why he named his cats Samson and Mississippi. The poet dedicated many poems about cats to them.
Ernest Hemingway's last cat was named Cuba.
And Nikolai Drozdov’s favorite is Munya.
The only undefeated world chess champion A. Alekhin, after emigrating, led a difficult life, but he was always accompanied by the cat Chess (English: Chess). He even attended the owner’s games, and may to some extent help him retain the championship title.
Alexandre Dumas Jr. had a medical education. And he named his cat the Doctor.
The brilliant artist Louis Wayne is practically unknown in Russia, but in Western countries he is considered the King of Cats. He named his first cat in honor of Peter the Great - Grand Piter. It was from him that I learned to draw cats. He lived a long life and created a whole cat world. But genius often goes hand in hand with madness.
He spent the last 20 years of his life in a psychiatric hospital, where a colony of cats lived. They drew them, and these drawings are now inserted into psychiatry textbooks to show how gradual insanity manifests itself in artistic creativity.
Bandit and Vlad Lisovets
The famous domestic stylist does not part with the snow-white Bandit.
The pet has a unique feature - heterochromacy. This means that the cat's eyes are different shades: one is blue and the other is green.
Vlad Lisovets, like his other colleagues, maintains not only a personal blog, but also a page for his pet. The description of Bandit’s Instagram account says that he “goes to the owners’ coffee shops and hairdressers.”
Evgeni Plushenko
The famous figure skater, two-time Olympic champion Evgeni Plushenko, who completed his sports career in 2022, is partial to cats. Since 2007, he has had a Scottish Straight cat. The pet's name is Pukhlik. Previously, Evgeniy also had a cat, Lyasika, but she died in 2010. The skater took the death of his pet very hard.
Pukhlik the cat's name suits him very well
