Larry the Lobster

Great news everybody, Larry the 70 year ld lobster will not be eaten! Between all the sadness, I like the occasional light note, a pet that didn’t die, an amazing rescue, owner and pet being reunited after years and years…
That Christian the Lion video always makes me sob like a baby!
Anyway, here was a bit of good news to cheer your day:

The owners of the New York restaurant where Larry has spent most of his life in a tank have decided to send him with retirement and let him enjoy the rest of his life in the wild!

This story began with a Bloomberg writer who wrote about the old lobster, saying that it was unsettling to eat something so old. The public responded and the management of restaurant Oceana was flooded with emails and phonecalls.

“A lot of people were very offended that we might indeed slaughter a 70-year-old lobster,” manager Paul McLaughlin tells PEOPLEPets.com. “We’re looking to set Larry free.”
Rock on!
