He had loads of animals and she feared that they might zoomiliate her, because she was not fond of them and they might sense it. Her worst phobias were realized that first night when the dogs dogged her, the cats were purrfectly awful to her, the hamsters hampered her, the budgies bugged her, the rabbits were rabid to her, the parrot parodied her, the ferrets fretted her, the turtles left her shell-shocked, the horses gave her nightmares, the cows bullied her, the goats and sheep treated her baaaadly and the chickens were fowl to her. She ran off never to return. Dr.John Doolittle then turned to his flock and thanked them for getting rid of the gold-digger!

Etymology: Zoo (Menagerie;group of animals housed in a place) & Humiliate (embarrass;mortify;shame)
