Pet of the Week: “He was very lonely without Gus, his bro.”
“Bruno is a 7-year-old Maine coon, that enjoys scratches, cuddles, and naps. He is a love bug and a momma’s boy for sure. He was raised with another cat, Gus who passed in 2019. He was very lonely without Gus, his bro. So on Halloween, he got a new little sister, Buffy. She is a long-haired Russian Blue, who loves to play, play some more, and nap on daddy’s lap. These two are fast friends and can be found sleeping together or sitting on the couch with their parents. They both have their own Instagrams as well. Bruno is @bros_before_treats and Buffy is @iamlilbuffy!”
