Had to be it: "Owls in the Family," by Farley Mowat. This is not about Archie and Meathead. It is about Wol the Owl and Weeps the other owl. You can remember the name Wol the Owl because the letters in 0-w-l can spell W-o-l. Here is a very fine review:

"If you're new to the writings of Farley Mowat, this book is a great place to start. You will love it. If you have kids, THEY will love it. Wol and Weeps, the two feathered protagonists, are two of the most lovable pets you'll ever read about in print. Wol especially steals the show when it comes to dealing with crows, dogs, skunks, and a really mean French teacher called Fifi."

By now, Fifi has probably had her FR account suspended and has moved to the other side of the tracks.
