In 1976, some friends of our family were packing up and heading north. They needed someone to take their koi fish and their chicken. We took them. I made the chicken my pet and named her Sonia Henny. She was a very sociable chicken and liked to follow me when I was taking the Poodles for a walk. She got along with the cats, and shared her space with a big white rabbit and a grey guinea pig.

Tabatha, Me with Sonia Henny, my first boyfriend Charlie, and Jeff behind us, 1976. Sonia Henny was cut down by the evil poodle Heidi, who not only killed Sonia, but also was the only dog we ever had that was put on house arrest because she ripped the mailman's pantleg.
