My Story: Pax, whose name means “peace” in Latin, was born on Easter Sunday. Full brother to Gypsi, and half-brother to Talon, Calusa and Gambit, Pax is an intelligent, athletic guy who excels at everything from acrobatics to research. What is somewhat unexpected is his love of silliness and out-of-the box ideas…he screams with delight when his trainers or guests surprise him!
Nicknames: Paxman, Paxamous
