Top 10 Pet Names for USAA Members

[Briana Hartzell USAA]

Updated: August 2021

Recent statistics show that 1 in 5 pet owning homes adopted a new pet during the pandemic*. Pandemic life may have been rough on us humans, but I imagine the pets in our lives thrived with their humans home, less long absences, and more cuddles. With a whole new slew of USAA members becoming pet owners- it is fun to see the top ten names of cats and dogs!

Here are the top 10 cat and dog names from USAA members:

Pets were given to us for companionship.  I have 5 year female Red Healer and her name is Pansy.

When Adam in the Old Testament have names to all the animals, he called my Pansy (DOG)!  The Lord knew that was His favorite creature!

I thank you LORD for the companion I have with my PANSY!

@4571 Healers are such beautiful dogs! Thanks for sharing Pansy's story with us!

Penny is a beauty. I am so sorry to hear of her passing. Dogs hold such a special place in our hearts and I can imagine you are really missing her. Sending you a big hug. Thanks for sharing her sweet face with us here in the Community.
