Yes, I did know this. The cats are named specifically for the characters on BBT, though, because we thought their personalities matched pretty well (Sheldon hides when new people come in the house, Leonard is better at dealing with that, they're both kinda weird but Leonard much less so). But I do love Sheldon Leonard as well.
