Pets

Just in case anyone has been curious about any of the pets mentioned in any of my stories, I’ve added this as an offshoot of the Casting page… but only until the Wiki page is complete. That will be these guys’ permanent home.

Snuggles & Sunshine: Ball Pythons
In The Dark

Pam promised Tina and Shelly pets while she helped them move.

Unfortunately, when Eric and Pam brainstormed, he forgot to say ‘no snakes’ while nixing other possible pets. Sunshine was named for her bright coloring, and Snuggles earned his name by escaping his cage to sneak into the closest bed.

Pinkus : Andros Island Iguana
Couldn’t Get Away

Purchased and smuggled back to Shreveport for Hunter, Sookie kept him when he was excluded from the braid.

      • Super sweet banner for Swede & Dali! Thank u!! Should Meantime host a skip in the future; can pet Pam get from ink/keystrokes? Would enjoy learning how Hunter gets along with monkey Pam; will he try and train/rename her Ampersand (like monkey in comic book; Y the Last Man?)

        Thanks!
