NAME: Asia
GENDER: Female
TYPE: Dog
INTERESTS: Food, plushes
HOBBIES: Long walks outside
ABOUT ME: I’m a diva, always trying to call attention on me! I don’t like to spend time alone, to hang with other people is much better. I’m so enthusiastic about the world around me… everywhere I look I see such astonishing things that I can’t stop thinking “What’s going on??”… “What’s going on??”… “…and there??”…it’s made my life like an eternal discovery, and I love it!
NAME: Tobia
GENDER: Male
TYPE: Cat
INTERESTS: Mirrors & rainy days
HOBBIES: Night solo singing
ABOUT ME: I think of myself as a Shaolin cat, solitary and ascetic but also a fighter ready to defend myself from anything I might perceive as a threat or disturbing. I love to meditate, the bathroom is my own reign, but I have no problems to share my space with respectful people.
NAME: Alice
GENDER: Female
TYPE: Cat
INTERESTS: Pillows
HOBBIES: To be informed of whatever happens outside the window
ABOUT ME: As I have a twin (Arturo) I don’t like being alone, although I also enjoy having my own space from time to time to watch the world from a high point of view. I’m playful, I love being petted and purring back.
NAME: Arturo
GENDER: Male
TYPE: Cat
INTERESTS: Human hair
HOBBIES: Bird watching
ABOUT ME: I am a sweet and tender big boy, I am very quiet and easygoing, I’m friendly with anyone. I am lazy, not as athletic as my twin Alice, I prefer to take it easy and sleep. I am an expert thief…sausages and meatballs! you are warned!
NAME: Pepe
GENDER: Male
TYPE: Cat
INTERESTS: Water
HOBBIES: Making troubles
ABOUT ME: I love playing the role of the Gangsta inda Zoo. To drive everyone crazy is so much fun! I can’t stop running and jumping and playing as I am lively, curious and a real rebel…but my mom says I am lovely and funny too.
NAME: Spice’s family
GENDER: 1 male, 3 female
TYPE: Cockatiel parrots
INTERESTS: Lazy living

As family tradition we all got spicy names…
-Father: Zenzero (Ginger)

…that’s why for us little Pepe (Pepper) is part of the family.

ABOUT ME: What can I say? Sometimes isn’t easy to be the only human member in this messy Zoo…but for the rest of the time it’s simply FUN!
enjoyed reading the profiles for your family! and the drawings are delightful.
Thank you Karen!
Truth is that the “original Zoo” members are so cute to make my work as illustrator very very easy
Hi, I’ve found your subrcriprion as follower to my blog… right now after several months.
So I just stopped by.
Nice place.
And buddies….
Ciao!!!!
Grazie mille!
Ho fatto mio l’aforisma di Jules de Gaultier che dice “L’immaginazione è un’arma nella guerra contro la realtà“, e questo è ciò che ne è venuto fuori.
Purtroppo non sono portata per le parole come te (e si nota!), ma i miei piccoli amici mi offrono continuamente muti spunti per sorridere…e pare anche che abbiano questo effetto terapeutico non solo su di me.

Thank you very much!
I did my Jules de Gaultier’s aphorism that says “Imagination is a weapon in the war against reality” and this is what came out.
Unfortunately I am not as keen as you with words (and it dramaticly shows!), but my little buddies often offers me silent reasons to smile… and they also seem to have the same therapeutic effect on other people.
