Pet Psychic: Pet Psychic
A person who claims to read animals' minds opens a pet therapy practice. The pets' actual thoughts are nothing like what their owners expect.
Evelyn, claiming to be a pet psychic, opens her pet therapy practice. Her first client, Mrs. Higgins, brings her poodle, Fifi. Evelyn 'communicates' with Fifi, telling Mrs. Higgins that Fifi feels neglected and wants more gourmet treats. Fifi is actually thinking about chasing squirrels and burying bones.
Characters
FIFI
supporting
Fifi is a pampered white poodle. She has perfectly coiffed, fluffy fur and large, expressive brown eyes. She wears a pink collar with a small, sparkly tag. Her tail is always perky, and she has a slightly upturned nose. She's small and fluffy, and her paws are delicately groomed. Occasionally, she might sport a tiny pink bow in her hair.
EVELYN
supporting
Evelyn is the owner of 'Evelyn's Pet Therapy,' a quirky storefront. She's a woman in her early 30s with fair skin, bright green eyes, and shoulder-length wavy auburn hair, often styled in a messy bun. She wears large, round, colorful glasses that dominate her face. Her clothing consists of comfortable, bohemian-style outfits, like flowy dresses or oversized sweaters with leggings. She has a friendly, slightly mischievous smile. Her office is brightly colored, so her outfits tend to be muted in color to not clash with the environment. She has a small nose ring.
MRS. HIGGINS
supporting
Mrs. Higgins is an elderly woman, likely in her late 70s. She has wrinkled, fair skin and short, neatly styled white hair. Her eyes are a soft blue, and she always has a concerned expression. She wears sensible, conservative clothing, such as a tweed skirt suit or a cardigan with a floral blouse. She often carries a small, elegant handbag and wears pearl earrings. She has a slightly hunched posture and uses a delicate, ornate walking cane.
