Where and when did you get your pet? Adopted in Austin, Texas, in March 2018.

What's your pet's favorite thing to eat? On the daily, her favorite food is skipjack tuna. As for favorite food ever, she once ate a Chick-fil-A nugget on a roadtrip and I have never seen her more excited! So that would be her go-to for birthdays and special occasions.

Does your pet have a neighborhood animal friend they like to play with? She does not get out much but enjoys watching birds and dog friends through the window. Shoutout to her dog neighbors, Pepper and Maya!

What is your pet's favorite thing about living in the East End? She loves sitting with the window open on N. 25th St. and watching the world go by. She regularly has passerby stop to say hello and admire her beauty.

Got anything else Lookout readers should know about your pet? She lived on the streets of Roseland, Texas for two years before being brought to a shelter, and becoming my foster child (i.e., “foster fail.”) She had to have her tail amputated due to an injury so she has a cute Corgi butt/bobcat physique, which only adds to her cuteness.
