A/N: 'Sup…So I noticed that my story didn't make a lot of sense in the first few chapters (No flames please) so I'm gonna try to do this again. You will notice a few new things in this New Story:

The only other Pet Nicole and Patty's owner has is a cat.

Mouze is now Amanda-Jo's jealous ridden cat and looks like any normal cat.

Amanda-Jo is no longer an animal whisperer (I don't know what I was thinking)

And a few more. In case nobody knew, this is a remake of Lost in New York. (like the summary says)

Enough with this, let's get this started

XXXX

Our story begins in New York…city that is. In an apartment near time square, a family of four were enjoying an early summer day.

"Hey Amanda-Jo, can you pass me the remote?" A boy, about 13 or 14 asked as he stretched out his hand for the said remote. A girl across from him scoffed "Please Bryan. It's right there next to your hand you get it"

"Can you get it please?"

The girl, apparently named Amanda-Jo scooted the remote closer to her brother, who then started flipping through channels.

"So much for watching TV" Amanda-Jo muttered.

"Then go play with Beebee" Bryan suggested "I think she's torturing the cat again"

Amanda-Jo got up and walked into the hallway "You know, "the cat" has a name"

"Don't care"

She just rolled her eyes and went into her little sisters' room "Hey there Beebee" she greeted.

A little girl with curly brown hair and green eyes looked up "Hiya Mandy-Jo"

"Bryan told me you were doing something to Mouze" Mouze was there pet cat.

Beebee looked around innocently "I just gave her a make-over" she explained.

"Beebee, what did mom say about giving the pets makeovers?"

"To not to"

"that's right" Amanda-Jo whistled and on command, a grey cat came from under Beebee's bed and into Amanda-Jo's arms, it looked like she ripped Beebee's "makeover" to pieces.

"'Cmon Mouze, let's take you to my room" Amanda-Jo left Beebee's room

"Thank goodness" Mouze muttered, it's not like her owner could understand her.

Amanda-Jo set Mouze on her bed and walked towards two cages on the other end of the room.

"Hey there Nicole, hey there Patty" two birds looked up and smiled.

"How are my two favorite birds doing?" The two birds chirped happily.

"Oh by the way, Nicole I got something for you" Amanda-Jo reached into her pocket and pulled out what might have been the smallest baseball cap in the world and set it in the cage.

"I made it, just for you" Nicole smiled as she put it frontwards on her head, she didn't seem to like that so she put it backwards. The bird next to her pouted a little.

Amanda-Jo took notice of that "please Patty, I've spoiled you way more then just giving you a baseball cap"

She heard the front door open "Hello?" A voice called.

"Dads home! I'll catch up with you guys later; Dad told us he had a big announcement for us"

Once Amanda-Jo was gone, Mouze eyed the two birds "you two think you're so special"

"I thought we were special" Nicole said in return, she spoke with a thick Brooklyn accent.

"Well, you're wrong" Mouze shot back "She's had me longer than she's had you and yet she spoils you two rotten, I used to get all the attention, now I'm just a dress up doll for a five year old"

"Beebee's not that bad"

"How would you know? It's not like you've been in a coal mine"

"…Y'know, its funny" Nicole said in an as-a-matter-of-fact voice "you make one little song about that, and next thing you know, the whole species is hearin' it"

"Hey, it can't be that bad" Patty said.

"How would you know? You're a cardinal, I'm not even sure if it's legal to have your species as a pet"

"Hey, some people have pigs and chickens as pets… not so strange now huh?"

Nicole was about to answer when they heard a celebratory shout from the family in the living room, next thing they knew Amanda-Jo came in "Guess what guys?" She asked excitingly "My Dad's boss says he's doing such a great job at work that they've set up an office in Rio and they want him to be the head of that office" she squealed.

"WE'RE MOVING TO RIO. TAKE THAT NEW YORK CITY!"

A/N: yep that's the first chapter of this new story. Just so you know I won't delete Lost in New York yet. Maybe in a week or two, same with Bringin' it all home. I'm starting fresh from scratch.

-HTTYD and Rio forever
