Thank you for interesting questions!!!

You wrote in the beginning: it's simple 
to animate the parametric plot of them by using ParametricPlot inside 
Animate.

But I cannot animate the NDSolve using ParametricPlot.
Can you please tell me why I get errors like "NDSolve::dsvar: 1.0011952113073699` cannot be used as a variable. ":

Animate[
   ParametricPlot[
      {Evaluate[{y[p], x[p]} /. sol = 
            NDSolve[...some equation type D[f1[x[p],y[p],p] = -D[x[p], p],  
               f2[x[p],y[p],p] = -D[y[p], p]
                x[1] == -1, y[1] == -1}, {y[p], x[p]}, {p, 1, Tp}]]},                          
                 {p, 1, Tp}], {Tp, 1, 100}]

Thank you!
