ZAGREB/VARAZDIN, June 2 (Hina) - This duck is certainly not lame -
it has been guarding the Pascuttini household from the northern
town of Varazdin for almost a decade. #L#
The duck, named Patku, has been living with the Pascuttini family -
five-year-old Leon, his mother Dubravka and father Damir - for
about ten years. Patku has a companion, a cat called Medo, reads an
article in the weekly "Varazdinske vijesti".
"Our duck is a real guard dog," says Dubravka Pascuttini. "When we
return home in the evening, it welcomes us at the entrance to our
frontyard with loud quacking. It gets angry when we put it into its
'sleeping house' at night, but stops quacking soon and goes to
sleep."
Every morning, when its masters call out "kitty-kitty", Patku
dashes out toward its feeding bowl. Medo and Patku do not share only
the same garden but also the same feeding bowl, proving that
friendship has no bounds.
