Pepe

Honorary Attendee

Pepé was adopted by Alyssa in 2020, but his crazy personality grew on Marcus. He is a 5-year-old black and white tuxedo cat who was the runt of the litter. His mood can go from cuddly to feisty within seconds, and he is very much "food motivated" (aren't we all?). His favorite treat is the chicken Churu puree and his favorite place to sleep is in bed between Alyssa and Marcus. When he's not prowling around trying to bite ankles, he works as a pest exterminator and professional track runner (clocking in solely from 2am-4am). His aliases include Pepperoni, Pepperoncini, Chunky Man, The Littlest Boy, and Bubba. It is with deep regret that he can't attend the wedding, but he will be there in spirit - please eat plenty of chicken on his behalf.
