And fun it was to read, "and stuck out his tongue" this should have but didn't alert me though the ending did and definitely made me smile, a wonderful short work, very well done and best wishes for the contest-sorry I'm a bit behind this week with everything****kahpot

    Thanx for the review, sir -- glad Zee and Raffe could entertain! ;) ;) They were a fun write! ;) And do not worry about the late.... not a worry at all -- I'm still a few 'screens' back from being caught up... still got grading to finish first...but I'll get there (so will you!)! :) Take care and have a great week! ;)

Whether well dressed or not, those critters always gain an audience - and they're cute. Interesting are the crosses between zebra and some other animal - can't remember how that worked.
Anyway - cute story.

Yvette,

Well, these two sound like smart folk. They're right. They can do pretty much anything -- orrrr NOTHING, actually -- and we stupid humans will just stand and stare - entranced. We're very easily amused. hahaha

Fun! Thanks!

    You are welcome, Yvette. You know you could make a collection of these and publish them for children:)

Cool story...So they were wearing their everyday suits after all!
I like the fact that your characters are animals.
Thanks for sharing and good luck in the contest.

Ha ha! I never thought about zebras and giraffes worrying about what they wear for opening day at the zoo! A clever story with an ending I didn't see coming. You made me chuckle!

Hello Dearie! I got here! At least for a little while... I'm so glad that I clicked on this little gem! I wish you'd asked me for a picture, I may just have one with both in one paddock... maybe not but I think they may just be together at the Columbus Zoo. They have a beautiful African Plains exhibit there. That's a great zoo. This is a really fun flash! Good luck in the contest! (You don't need it... you'll probably walk away with the number 1 spot hands down!) ;)

    Naaaahh... purposefully went with the 'generic' to maybe not give it away too soon - LOL! ;) It really wasn't my 'usual', but it was a little 'stress relief' after a kindof long Monday.... not bad, just needed a little 'crazy', I think!! ;) :) Thanx so much for dropping in -- I'm off to P-T and then I've got that lovely math workshop this afternoon... :) :) :/ You take care up there and I'll touch base soon... :) ;) Yvette

LOVE the names! I'd never have thought of nicknaming the animals so cleverly! This is exactly as advertised in your authors notes...a bit of early week sunshine to make us smile! What's not to love about that?--Karenina

    Oh, I'm so glad you don't mind a little crazy now and then, Karenina -- and this was just a quick 'crazy' write after arriving home yesterday evening! ;) :) I had originally wanted to do a leopard and a lion with Zee and Raffe but 80 words would not allow...LOL! :) Take care out there and have a great week! ;) :)

LOL Thus is so cute...I don't get to the zoo often, but you've mentioned two of my favorite animals. (Our zoo also has a carousel so I get my 'horse fix' while I'm there, too.) Best wishes, my friend, in the 80 word flash fiction contest!!!

Ha ha, love it and I honestly didn't click until the end. What fun. A playful piece that should do well in the contest. I'm sure Raffe and Zee both looked very smart.
