Sara e a Vida dos Bichos: A1 Portuguese — Protecting Home & Making Friends

Original pet of the building's architect. Lived in apartment 201 since the building was constructed 12 years ago. Watched the neighborhood change. Knows street cat politics, safe routes, dangerous areas. His human is elderly too - they're growing old together.

Born on the streets. Survived by being tougher and smarter than everyone else. Built a gang of street cats. They steal from house pets because house pets have everything. Has complex feelings about house pets - jealousy mixed with contempt mixed with curiosity.

Trained as police dog but failed out for being 'too friendly and emotional.' Embarrassed by this failure. Now overcompensates by taking building security extremely seriously. Sees Sara as his responsibility and project.

Semi-street dog. Has a human but spends days at Mercado Municipal 'working.' Broker of information and favors. Every pet in São Paulo knows Gordo. If you need to know something or find someone, Gordo can help - for a price.

Her human runs an Instagram account ('mia_gatinha_sp') with 50k followers. Used to being the star. When Sara moved in, suddenly Sara got more attention in the group chat. Resents this but also curious about Sara.

Adopted as bonded pair with Sol from a shelter. Never been separated even for an hour. Lives for excitement because their human is boring (works in accounting). This is the most exciting day of their lives.

Adopted with Luna. More anxious twin. Worried about EVERYTHING but does it anyway because Luna does it. Co-dependent but loves it. Secret desire to be brave like big dogs.
