A woman is talking to her Italian confidentes over brunch, in a pleasant apartment outside of Rome, filled with unusual paintings, the smell of coffee and a large number of cats.
She is bemoaning the fact that she has become recently divorced and is fairly certain that she is 'over' men and will not find another guy to share her life with. The friends cajole her about this, claiming that of course she will meet someone.
As the cats start to climb all over the woman as she tells her story, the friends ask her if she minds this somewhat unexpected attention. Is she a dog or a cat person, they ask. Either way, they suggest, she might want one or two of either animal as companions in the future.
She replies that she is more of a dog person but that, all she really sees herself with in the future, is an apartment filled with birds and fish.
The women laugh hysterically.

NB: In Italian, there are many, many, many common words which are a euphemism for reproductive organs and various secretions produced during sex. Here are a selection:
1) Uccello = "bird" or "penis"
2) Pesce = "fish" or "penis"
3) Tubelo = "potato" or "vagina"
4) Pane = "bread" or "vagina"
5) Borra = "butter" or ... I think you get the (word) picture.
