Zippy

Zippy was a lakeetah cub that was encountered by Jedi Initiates Nubs, Kai Brightstar, and Lys Solay, and their astromech droid friends Beepers, Dozer, and Gigi in the Tenoo grasslands. Zippy's distracted nature resulted in him being separated from his family. When the Jedi and droids found the cub while exploring on their new speeder bikes, they befriended the creature, giving him the moniker "Zippy" due to his speed. Zippy was almost named "Biscuit" by Brighstar, because the cub enjoyed Mossberry Biscuits. The Jedi, learning that lakeetahs always traveled as a family unit, helped reunite Zippy with his family.
