This has been discussed before. As far as I'm aware, Cantrian animal plurals are all done by adding 's' to the end of the word, which means you do get the odd mistake like the ones you described.

Have you noticed 'a axe,' etc? Should be 'an axe.'

Another grammer point is on tomatoes. In the inventry they are tomatoes, but when you are collecting them it says collecting tomatos
