Hi Epit
Strange request - LOL. Have you got a baby zoo to baptize?
Well, I have a she dog, Martina, my beloved lab was Carocha ( cockroach ) and I have a cat Lynce - those wild cats that live ( or no longer live ) between Portugal and Galizia Once I had a golden fish - its name was CAN CAn ( Yes, Moulin Rouge, he swam at light speed when he heard ( ???? did he hear ) the music, I had a turtle, , very slow, so I took the name from the most loved cartoonist, Kino, the Argentinian creator of MAfalda, the best cartoon ever thought - the turtle was Burocracy. A friend has a "horrible " , little, disgusting thing, similar toa dog - name, Floppy , surname Disk.
I had a Atila ( which turned out to be a very wild dog, indeed, I had a Zorba, who would wave his tal as listening to Zorba theme ( amazing ) I had a sausage , do you know what it is ? , a basset, name Kayak, because he would move in a very slow and looooonnnng way, looking like what I thought , at the time, would be a kayak moving in calm waters. I also had a Snoopy ( very creative ) and a friend had a charming brown dog named Cocoa.
I had two Bells - Portuguese dogs from Serra da Estrela - don �t ask why, some cartoons on TV and my children wanted that name.
Birds ? Ok, let �s go - I had some perroquets many years ago - one was Greenish, ( because it was , guess, yes, not red, green - a female was very British , her name was Kate, even before the Prince was born or met Kate, the future Queen. I also had an ugly, HUGE, BLACK cat ( very good for halloween parties ), its name was Quintela, a famous teacher, in the university, who, obviously, I loved so much, that I gave his name to the tramp cat.
My very first dog was a kind of a lawyer . his name was LEX ( Law, in latin )
I had a wonderfull dove - Branquinha, cause she was white, I would call her name and she would answer , fly and land on me. In the evening, she would fly home to sleep - she was a very respectful dove, she wouldn�t sleep out. I had a toad-name Peter pan, my dog Martina would follow his shadow on the walls, but never managed to find the toad
Rabbits, had one, once, don�t want to talk about the poor one - he would have been luckier anywhere else, the poor one.
Well, I �ve done my part, please, don �t invite me to be the godmother - ( joking )
Hugs and good luck with your zoo.
Have a nice week Linda
