Quotes[]
- “It’s very early so at the moment, Elmo is displeased, but that’s very common. He absolutely LOVED having dogs and other cats around when I’ve had roommates in the past, so I don’t think it will take too long before they are good friends or at the very least tolerant roomies. We have been considering another cat or dog for several years specifically FOR Elmo because he enjoys having playmates so much. He just needs to realize Zangief is "a bad guy, but not bad guy!"”

- “He is a pretty boy, and we love him.”
- — Pat
- “Baby boy. Baby.”
- — Clemps
- “It is child”
- — Plague
- “His ear is like a velvet sampler at the carpet store.”

Trivia[]
- Zangief is named after Pat's favorite Street Fighter grappler.
- He is so named because, like his namesake, Zangief has a V on his chest, has blue eyes, and was born on June 1, 2020.
- There is some dispute over the correct pronunciation of Street Fighter character Zangief's name. Pat selected the pronunciation "zan-geef" based on the character's appearance in Wreck It Ralph.
- Paige first discussed a dog on Dec 31, 2016, as recorded in Pat Streams At Final Fantasy 15 (Part 6).
- Paige: "If we got a dog, right. I would want the fattest, most obnoxious, ugly dog (so it would be like me), just this really annoying, ugly, fat dog, and name it Zangief. Like, like an English Bulldog, named Zangief. That'd be perfect. Don't you think?"
- Pat: "Mmm. Sorry, I'm paying attention to the video game. There's plot going on."
