Percy the Bearded Dragon Has Found His True Love

Meet Percy, a bearded dragon with a most unusual love story. His heart belongs not to another reptile, but to a gray and pink sock.

How the Love Affair Began

The romance started one day when Percy's owner, Caitlin, was wearing the sock. She noticed Percy showing intense interest, but wasn't sure if he was fascinated by her foot or the sock itself.

To solve this mystery, Caitlin took the sock off. Percy's reaction left no doubt about his feelings. He immediately pounced on the sock, grabbed it, and ran away to cuddle with his new love.

A Very Particular Love

At first, Percy was extremely selective about his affection. No other sock would do - he only had eyes for that specific gray and pink one. His devotion was so complete that Caitlin stopped wearing the sock, surrendering it to become Percy's full-time companion.

The Weekly Heartbreak of Laundry Day

Even the greatest love stories face challenges. For Percy, that challenge comes once a week: laundry day.

When the sock needs washing, Percy struggles to understand why his beloved must be taken away. During the washing and drying cycle, he keeps a watchful eye on the "mysterious swirling machine" that has temporarily stolen his treasure.

Percy stays close to the dryer, monitoring the situation with concern. When the cycle finally ends and his sock emerges clean and warm, Percy's joy knows no bounds. He eagerly grabs his companion and races off for some quality cuddling time.

Love Expands

Recently, Percy's heart has grown bigger. While the original gray and pink sock remains his greatest love, he's now willing to share his affection with other gray socks too.

This small expansion of his sock-loving heart shows that even bearded dragons can grow emotionally. Though his first love will always hold a special place in his heart, Percy has learned there's enough love to go around for more socks in his life.
