I'm a bit confused, but I imagine the characters were indeed chickens and roosters.
I had many pet chickens and roosters; sadly they all ended up soup. Years later I choose not to eat meat anymore.
I used to feed a rooster french fries with a fork. Now I have a dog; it's better because she doesn't sing at 6am :)) she waits until 8am
hahaha
I wanted to write in the bottom that these three roosters inspired the story
plus actually, the story is quite a common scene where I came from :D
except for the characters, I made up them names :)
In as much as I would like to write poor pet of yours, I have to be true to myself I love chicken! specially chicken soup! I still eat them and most of the time I only eat chicken at the same time organic except when am not eating at home :D
hmm... the rooster year is also almost over so this is a triple edge sword except for I don't know whatever that means haha
