Chapter Pets

Does your chapter have a pet?
A lot of Sigma Nu chapters usually have a pet Snake. We had a Basset Hound named Norman Synbad Westerfeld.

Here's his composite pic:

The only animals we were allowed to have in the house were fish, so no, we didn't have an official pet. There was this cute little kitty who camped out on our back patio all the time. She never went away, so we started feeding her and ended up naming her Violet.

We have a 2 year old Ball Python named Zeta (after our chapter...Zeta Iota)

UC Berkeley Sigma Nu has three snakes named Alpha 1, Alpha 2, and Alpha 3 in honor of the Founders.

Fresno State USED to have a 15 foot long Boa named Zima but she passed away last year after over 10 years of living at the Fresno Sigma Nu.

I know that the DU chapter at Northwestern has a female dog (Pug, I think.).

I saw them walking the dog in their letters and then take it in the house (they were walking the dog to a greek event).

We aren't allowed to have pets in the sorority houses at UCF. However, there's a dog (or was... when I was there) that would wander from Tri-Delta to Kappa Delta to ADPi. We called him the Delta Dog and the KD's built him a little dog house. He seemed happy and well-fed, so I'm not sure if he was a stray or just a rambler.

When I rushed, AEPhi had a cute little house dog. I don't remember what kind it was but I do remember they brought him out after the first round skit.

My Boyfriend is in AEPi here at the U of Oregon, and they have a cat named Petunia. And an elected "cat chair"

The girls who lived in the basement of our chapter house had a cat this year, but they're living out and studying abroad next semester, so she's moving to the live out house with them.

Wendel the chihuahua.

The only picture I could find was me punishing him for pooping on the floor. Hahaha.

AND NO THE RED CUPS DO NOT CONTAIN ALCOHOL. Just to get that out of the way. I believe it was ice cream social night.

That basset hound is the cutest thing ever!!!

We had a kitty named Calva

for a very short period of time.

Most of the fraternities had dogs when I was in school and they always came to Greek Week events. The Sig Eps' dog got pregnant at Greek Olympics one year because she was the only female, but no one was ever sure who the puppy daddy was.

girl, that puppy daddy better take care of his kids!!!

I'm surprised that some of the sororities had chapter pets - I'm fairly certain pets wouldn't have been allowed at any of the sorority houses on my campus. Some of the fraternities may have had them, but the sorority houses were generally in far better condition than the fraternity houses. Our house corps liked to keep them that way.

(Unless they were unofficial pets that lived with out of house sisters?)

I recall several years ago the Housemother at the Chi Omega house at Univ. of Alabama had a dachshund named "Beanie Weenie."

I am crazy about dachshunds, but that was the meanest lil guy I've ever met!

We had an illegal kitty when a senior had to take it prior to her graduation. His name was, of course, Alphie. I don't think she would have gotten away with it if she wasn't terribly close with our housekeeper! (*makes note to find picture of the ever so cute Alphie*)

I'm pretty sure you'd be mean too if your name was Beanie Weenie and you had girls cooing over you all the time.
