Fixed it - thanks! "Dodói" (I also forgot the diacritic) is boo-boo, indeed - a childish way to call small injuries.
Amon isn't a common pet name here. The one naming him was my mum, who loves Old Egyptian culture; to give you an idea, my childhood cat was Cleópatra, and even one of my current cats (Kika) was supposed to be called Ísis. (The one naming Kika was my nephew - by then he already understood how this "naming" thing works.)
