Pet of the Day: Pepper

Pepper was the featured pet of the day on Monday. He actually has a lot of say about his situation:

“So here’s how it is. I sat and watched my sweet sister Shakira in the loving arms of her forever family. I miss her already. I couldn’t even be in the same cage with her because we were boy and girl and that would be trouble.

“I was blowing her brotherly kisses, but I was trying to hid my tears because I want to go so badly too. I love being out of my cage. Miss Sandi lets me run around so I can stretch my legs, but I am getting real antsy and just cry to let me out. I know my time is short and I just want to go home! Would you come for me please?”
