My Pet & Me is an occasional feature on Green Light.

After putting a call out for the College’s favorite pets and recipes last week, we received a number of four-legged favorites.

To kick off My Pet & Me, I bring you five of Ivy Tech Northeast’s sweetest and fuzziest.

First up, meet Mumford, a lion head rabbit. While Andy Bell, the engineering programs chair, admits Mumford is his daughter’s, he and his wife love the rabbit.

Jennifer Rambo, an adjunct faculty in accounting, wrote in about Pippa, her American Kennel Club champion Lhasa Apso. She calls the breed a forgotten one in the U.S., and it originated in Tibet.

“They were guards to the inner sanctuary of the monks and palaces,” Rambo wrote. “Loyal, independent, and smart! They have a heart of a lion.”
