Here in the Delgoffe lab we love our furry friends!!! Take a look at our cute pets

Buddy and Luna

Buddy & Luna are two lucky dogs who live with Greg. Buddy (left) likes chicken hearts, sunbathing, and dog sweaters. He hates unexpected breezes and postal workers. Luna (right) likes food, belly rubs, food, parties, and most importantly, food. She dislikes diets, doorbells, and postal workers.  

Maple & Fran

Maple and Fran are two spoiled cats who live with grad student Kristin. Maple (orange chonker) likes Costco rotisserie chicken and cheddar cheese and (really really) dislikes having to wait until mealtime for food. Fran (small fluff) is Maple’s new baby sister. Fran loves to chase Maple around the apartment and dig the dirt out of the houseplants. She dislikes being told “no”.

Cricket & Stevie

Cricket & Stevie are siblings who live with grad student Andrew. Stevie (left) likes treats, stealing his sister's treats, naps in weird places, chatting, and seats recently vacated by humans. He hates new people, dirty bathrooms, and being left on "read". Cricket (right) likes chicken, prosciutto, jumping to inconvenient locations, testing gravity, and chasing the bright red disappearing bug. She dislikes being told no and being taken down from high places.

Thor, Pepper, & Richard

Thor, Pepper, and Richard are a trio of friends living with lab manager Rachel. Thor and Pepper (the dogs) like peanut butter and hate being home alone. Richard (the cat) likes being left alone and dislikes everyone.

Penny, Pauline, & Lola

These 3 girls live with RAP Dayana. Penny(right) and Pauline(left) are siblings and inseparable. They love to snuggle together, chase each other around the house and they both enjoy belly rubs. Lola is an Australian cattle dog mix who’s urban life revolves around chasing her 2 cat sisters around the house, stealing socks, chewing on rocks and collecting plastic bottles around Polish Hill. On the weekends she likes spending time in the woods and hanging out with her buddies Zuzu, Thor and Pepper.

RIP: Orwell was an ornery old cat who lived with Dayana. He liked chewing on plastic bags and disliked children. He was a dear friend we all miss.

Zuzu

Zuzu is the dogson of graduate student Ronal. Also known as “Yung Zuzu” and “Zuzu the Wildboy”, Zuzu takes his royal namesake from the heir to the Fire Nation, Prince Zuko (if you know, you know). Zuzu’s favorite activities are going for walks, cuddling eating hot dogs, and causing general mayhem. His dislikes include being told to do anything he doesn’t want to do.

Ollie & Topaz

Ollie and Topaz are siblings who live with grad student Chenxian. Ollie (short hair) is a sweet girl born on March 23rd, 2022. She likes laying on the keyboard and seating close to human. She likes playing more than treats. Topaz (long-hair) is a friendly boy born on April 3rd, 2022. He likes chicken, tuna and all different treats. He always comes first when you feed them.
