Brilliant artists + adorable animals… what could be better?!
Frida kept many pets — multiple pet monkeys, xoloitzcuintli (“Mexican Hairless”) dogs, parrots, parakeets, macaws, chickens, a pet eagle named Gertrudis Caca Blanca (“Gertrude White Shit”), and a fawn called Granizo. Kahlo often painted herself surrounded by her animal companions, who — while most everything else about her life ebbed and flowed — were a calming constant.
