Life is easy with pump. He might squeal a lot but that's just who he is. He sleeps a lot and he's easy going. If nobody is home he will gladly stay happily in his cage. Everybody in my family loves him and takes care of him. He makes everybody laugh and smile. He's the cutest little boy ever.

Can you tell us a hilarious story about Pump? How big will your bestie get?

One time my mom was doing laundry and we couldn't find pump so my mom and dad found him in the dryer full of clothes just laying on his side. He loves the warmth so he took it upon himself to climb in and take a nap. It was possibly the cutest thing ever!

Pumpernickel is my bestest friend ever because... he's my little baby boy he loves me and I love him! Life with Pump is...happiness.
