Hi Yvette. I love writes about animals and the conversation between Zee and Raffe about the outfits worn to the grand opening. Unique and fun little story. Marilyn

Ok, you had me. I thought that, at the beginning of your story that these characters were at the Academy Awards...Not the zoo. A good flash fiction well executed.

    LOL! Hooray - I'm betting it was their swag that covered it well, yeah? LOL! LOL! So glad you enjoyed this one -- 'twas just a quick write after arriving home this 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! ;) :)

Are the guys like football players or are they gong to prime? The story is intriguing enough to presume both scenarios. Good with the contest and with your writing.

This is so cute with Zee and Raffe getting ready for opening day. I had no idea about the names until I got to the end. I guess you know this is reminiscent of the movie 'Madagascar,' one of my favorites. lol

Hey Yvette. I will identify with Zee. lol I don't always groom on the fence but I will think about trying. Looking aloof is very hard for me. No one believes me when I try. Oh Well. Good luck in the contest. You're up against the tapeworm. lolol Z

You are looking sharp with this one, Vet (Sorry, I couldn't think of a better one). I was wondering about the funny names, but never guessed what this was about. Flash fiction ideas are hard to come by. Yours are always so clever.

This is hilarious. It reminds me of one of my favorite movies, "Madagascar" and anything related. I think the last line is clever. I think it has a wide audience appeal. Thank you for posting! Are you doing a whole book with these characters, by chance?

This is a great entry for the 80-word flash fiction contest. You had me reeled in, hook, line and sinker. Pin-stripes indeed! And I think somewhere in the dim, dark ages there is a saying about never trusting a man in a brown suit. Not sure if that applies to giraffes though. Good luck.

LOL. Good heavens, stop it. You are taxing my strained brain already! HAHAHAHAHA! Would you believe I didn't get it at first? I thought the friends and fans were.. Oh never mind. (LOL) This made it click "Better than your whole brown-beige motif!" when combined with the last paragraph.

Duh... I better go back to bed. (Hahahaha!)

This lively little piece is delightful! The well-written dialogue makes the piece all the more fun. If they could talk (They can't, can they?!), I'll bet they would say these things! Very creative, Yvette
