Actually, I don't find it incongrous at all.
The names are Ironic to me.
Fluffy; I think of a cute cat; Fluffy is not cute and certainly *is not*
a cat.  Norbert; I think of a harmless animal or a human.  Norbert *9s
not* harmless.  Then there's Fang.  I expect some vicious bloodthirsty
hound.  Fang *is not* vicious.  He just as soon kiss you to death as
anything else.
