When Pickles the puss grew to the size of a dog, he found himself in a bit of a pickle.
At 21 pounds and more than three-feet long, he couldn’t find an owner
with a heart – or home – big enough to take him in – so he was forced
to roam the streets in search of scraps to suppress his almighty
appetite. But the monster moggy – nicknamed Catasaurus Rex – has finally
found a place to live after a young Boston couple saw an advert online
and took pity on him.
Andrew Milicia and girlfriend Emily Zarvos say it was love at first
sight when they met Pickles at the Massachusetts Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Animals last month. And now he couldn’t be
happier as he spends most of his days squeezing sleepily onto their
three-man sofa or guzzling platefulls of cat food to his heart’s
content.
