Pet of the Week

Rocky was 11 months old when he was adopted by @Linc in October 2011, a month after starting at Vanilla. They met at an adoption fair being held in the parking lot of the Detroit Zoo, where Linc had taken his visiting parents. He's a little bit "broken" (he has a few hangups that can surprise folks not familiar with him) but is very affectionate and is super friendly & patient with small children. His primary skillset is finding the best heat source for sleeping (sun, radiator, or human). He plays with any fluffy thing you put in front of him, he doesn't care.

That dumpster fire is a metaphor for that whole condo project which as been on-going since long before I started at Vanilla. Maybe we can vectorize that photo and sell it to them as a logo.
