Songs or Musicians with Animals in the Title or Name

[DMAFl]

As my cat tries to push her way onto my keyboard, reminding me to get busy with my weekend chores, it makes me think of all the songs and musicians with animals in their names.  This could be a long list!  I'll start with (musician) Eddie Rabbit (song) Cat's in the Cradle (originally by Harry Chapin) ( my cat made me choose that)
