We’re choosing a new mascot — lovingly known as a “spokespet” — for our All 4 Pets brand!
Each week, our beloved “Spokespet” is the face of our All 4 Pets newsletter, acting as our honorary editor-in-chief. It’s finally time to say goodbye to our latest Spokespet Sora, the jumping spider, and replace her with someone new!
We asked you all to enter your pets into our spokespet contest, and we received more than 900 submissions (and they’re all just too cute).
We want your help choosing the winner! We’ve narrowed it down to 12 finalists, and we’re opening it up to a vote.

Meet the finalists
Turks (turkey), Cottrellville Township
From the owner: Turks the turkey was a tractor supply purchase as a pet. Turks is extremely friendly and loves to be around people. His favorite thing is riding around on the golf cart. I am pretty sure Turks thinks he is a human or that we are turkeys.
Muffin (cat), Royal Oak
From the owner: Muffin is a well known Metro Detroit adventure cat and cat philanthropist for local animals and the people who love them. She reps Detroit on all our travels throughout Michigan and beyond. She loves delighting everyone we meet on our adventures and challenging stereotypes about cats.
Blondi (mini horse), Metamora
From the owner: Blondi is the perfect pet. She was adopted in 2019 from a rescue and is living her best life now with her own barn and family. Blondi likes to go out in public just to make people smile. Her love for life, kind spirit and beautiful soul brighten people’s day. She has participated in parades, visits to tractor supply, and was one of the top 10 finalists in the 2021 Cadbury bunny contest leading to her own Instagram and followers.
Scooter (turtle), Berkley
From the owner: Scooter is the little library pet at Angell Elementary in Berkley!
Tilly (goat), Milford
From the owner: Tilly means strength in war, and she’s definitely owned up to that meaning. At just 1 year old, she runs the pack and is full of spunk, so sweet, and just an all-around goofball. She’s guaranteed to put a smile on your face and make you laugh.
Mozzarella (rabbit), Davisburg
From the owner: You’ve never met a sweeter, more cuddly bunny! He’s our own little Cadbury bunny. He fills our lives with joy and we would love to share it with everyone!
Loki (cat), Novi
From the owner: Loki is not only a happy, playful and affectionate rescue cat, but he is also a perfect example that special needs cats can be great pets, too. He was diagnosed with asthma at a year old and developed diabetes from his steroid treatment about 18 months ago. Even though this lovable big guy needs his inhaler twice a day, insulin injections at 3 a.m. and 3 p.m., and daily Benadryl, he still has a cheery outlook on life.
Captain Morgan (macaw), Garden City
From the owner: Captain Morgan was a rescue at the age of 12 and has celebrated his 29th birthday. He is so much fun and really loves a good time and meeting new people. He is an animal ambassador for our rescue group, and has even met a couple of your reporters at the Novi Pet expo!
Luna Sophia (sugar glider), Roseville
