Pete Davidson left a strongly worded voicemail for PETA after they criticized him for buying a dog instead of adopting one. He was seen buying a new dog for his mother with his girlfriend at Citipups in Manhattan. PETA’s Senior VP of Cruelty Investigations, Daphna Nachminovitch, had issued a statement to TMZ which criticized Davidson’s decision.
“It’s tragic that Pete didn’t seek out a borough-born mutt from a city animal shelter, because a scrappy New Yorker with charm, personality, and unconventional handsomeness could have been his perfect match,” Nachminovitch said.
Pete left an intense voicemail criticizing Nachminovitch for not doing her research when he called the VP directly and unleashed on Nachminovitch,
“Hi my name is Pete Davidson and this message is for Daphna,” Davidson began. “Thank you so much for making comments publicly that I didn’t adopt a dog. I just wanted to let you know I’m severely allergic to dogs so I have to get a specific breed. I’m only not allergic to Cavapoos, and those types of dogs, and my mom’s f**king dog who’s two years old died a week prior and we’re all so sad. So I had to get a specific dog. So why don’t you do your research before you fucking create news stories for people because you’re a boring, tired, b**ch. F**k you and suck my d**k.”
PETA ended up responding to Davidson’s comments, telling TMZ: “If Pete had done his research, he would know that there’s no such thing as a hypoallergenic dog, that at least a quarter of dogs in shelters are purebreds, and that Petfinder has listings for homeless dogs of every breed under the sun, including the one he purchased.”
Even in the end when PETA offered one more response, there was still no remorse about them being pathetic, heartless people:
PETA then added: “Our hearts go out to the Davidson family for the loss of their dog, but Pete must know in his heart that there’s no excuse for buying a dog and propping up the puppy mill industry when millions of dogs await loving homes in shelters, and we hope he’ll do the right thing and adopt next time.”
