PEPE
Settle in. There’s a lot of photos to see in this post!
We lost our dear Pepe Augustino last year on June 19, 2025. He was 9 years old.
Pepe came to us at one day old. He spent every day with me in my studio providing constant chatter and companionship. He traveled the country with us and visited 46 states during his lifetime. He took a few plane rides and swam in many lakes, ponds, and bays. He enjoyed paddle boarding and could hollow out a watermelon into a clean bowl. He liked to play in the mud and even got to wallow in the 130 year snowfall in New Orleans. He loved arugula, tomatoes, and meal worms, the occasional pasta treat —and dove on the dry cat food if I forgot to pick the bowl up from the floor.
He truly brightened the room. And after one year I still miss him every day.
