As spring was approaching, Martha was feeling friskier. And was well aware of why it was. It wasn't just leaving the doldrums of winter behind. Once spring came, there will be plenty of animals who will be going into heat, including the red fox. Martha had been wondering if she wanted to have kits yet. The idea was appealing, but she was still studying at the Animalia School of Modeling. After getting her sleek, sexy new body, she wasn't sure if she was wanting to give it up for 6 months while she carried Robert's pups in her. Not that she wouldn't want to do that eventually.
Either way, Martha found herself craving sex more often lately. True, Animalians had very healthy libidos, but the mating season certain had an effect on that. Martha could certainly remember how active she was feeling during Mardi Gras last week.
==========
Not all of Animalia was doing Mardi Gras New Orleans style, though that was certainly very popular. There was a large block party where people were celebrating it Rio de Janeiro style. Which meant a lot of fast-paced samba music that was punctuated by the occasional confetti cannon. Not everyone was dancing the samba to the music, namely because they couldn't. The samba was a very high-energy dance and even if Animalians were in better shape than humans, some found it too exhausting to keep up the rhythm.
Not that the samba was unknown here. Carlos, the Scarlet Macaw Zumba teacher, was familiar with the samba as it was one of the roots of Zumba. He, his mate Delores, and his students danced it very well. But they paled in comparison to the jaguar clan. Most of them were originally uplifted jaguars from the zoo, but there were a few converted jaguars there as well. Namely Paulo Ornellas and his family which consisted of his wife, Carlita, and their two children, Pablo and Rosalina. They were particularly awesome to watch because their Carnival costumes were based off of Aztec jaguar warriors.
Martha and Robbie had ended up going to this party, namely because a lot of girls from the modeling school had gone there. Martha was feeling particularly bold as she was only wearing a red bikini top and some very short jean shorts. If she had her old overweight body, she would have never been this confident to wear these kind of clothes in public. But as a beautiful, sexy vixen, her confidence was building up in spades. It certainly helped that the modeling school was teaching her how to strut her stuff.
She could spot a few other members of her class among the dancers. Maggie was very noticeable in her red minidress and Karen was also wearing a pair of short jeans while wearing a tied-up button-up shirt. But Martha couldn't keep her eyes off of Robbie for long. It was amazing how good he looked in a tight pair of chinos and a collared shirt. The fact that the shirt was open and revealing his awesomely muscular chest was something that made it very hard for her to keep her eyes off of him. She already knew the two of them were going to have some awesome sex as soon as they got home. Spring was coming and there were plenty of foxes who were getting more sprightly.
It was a bit odd to be celebrating Carnival, which actually derives its name from the Italian phrase 'carne levare', meaning 'to remove meat' when she was no longer capable of going full vegetarian. Well, that wasn't quite right. Foxes are omnivores, but they've got too strong a craving for meat to give it up. Perhaps it would be more appropriate to think of Carnival getting its name from 'carne vale' which was Latin for 'a farewell to the flesh'. There were many Animalians who had converted to escape bodies that were too unhealthy to live. Martha could certainly be a literal example considering how much weight she dropped by becoming a vixen. It made her feel really grateful to have this new life and she felt the right to celebrate and show off her curvy figure.
