When Peggie sees Red, she shouts “RED!!” loudly, and he goes running. Red is settling into his role at the Mansion, he knows who to go to and who to avoid, he accepts cuddling and squeezing and kisses on the head and nose. He and Peggie are old friends now, I believe the love of animals becomes more pronounced in assisted care facilities like the Mansion, I can see the anguish and loneliness caused when people are denied animals, they miss them and appreciate them all the more.
