My parrot Fido.

My parrot got her name accidentally. There was a fire, and a dog named Fido was trapped in the house. We all screamed "Fido" over and over. It did not work. Suddenly my parrot, Capricorn, flew into the house (the fire was out) and started saying, "Fido, Fido, come, boy, come" in a deep voice. And the dog ran out. So we renamed my parrot Fido.
