Pets in Hebrew

• Dog-כֵּלֵב-[kelev]
• Cat-חַתוּל-[chatul]
• Fish-דָג-[dag]
• Turtle-צַב-[tsav]
• Hamster-אוֹגֵר-[oger]
• Rabbit-אַרנָב-[arnav]

And “puppy” is 

כְּלַבְלַב (klavlav), while “kitten” is 

חֲתַלְתּוּל (chataltul)—note that that’s the hard “ch” sound, as in “Chanukkah”—Hebrew diminutives and cutesy nicknames just take a couple consonants and double them.

Ahhhhhhhh these are so cute and lovely 🙂

I did not know the word for hamster!

… ironically perhaps, hamster is also the only one of these critters I don’t have a regular tag for
