8* ADayInTheLimelight: This is the second episode to focus on the pets.

Walt then decides to fly south with her, but he ends up missing his own family too much. They decide to spend the winter apart until she returns in spring.
13* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: When the duck has to fly south for the winter, the pets come up with the idea to make is so she can stay with Walt, but when Walt notices that she misses her family, he lets her fly south to be with them while also going with her. But while he's happy with her, the duck notices that Walt misses his own family, so the duck allows him to fly back home to be with them. However, they still maintain a long-distance relationship.
14* InterspeciesRomance: Walt (a canary) enters a relationship with a duck.

16* NoNameGiven: The duck isn't given a name.
