After PETA called out Pete Davidson for buying a dog for his mother from a pet store instead of adopting one from a shelter, the “Saturday Night Live” alum left one of its execs a furious, profanity-ridden voicemail, for which he later apologized.

“Thank you so much for making comments publicly that I didn’t adopt a dog,” Davidson said to Daphna Nachminovitch, PETA’s Senior VP of Cruelty Investigations, in a voicemail on Monday, as heard in audio shared by TMZ.

“I just want to let you know I’m severely allergic to dogs, so I have to get a specific breed,” he added. “I’m only not allergic to cavapoos, and those types of dogs. And my mom’s f--king dog, who’s two years old, died a week prior, and we’re all so sad. So I had to get a specific dog.”

And then Davidson unleashed an explicit tirade on Nachminovitch, who had previously issued a statement to TMZ about his dog purchase.

“So why don’t do your research before you f--king create news stories for people, because you’re a boring, tired [expletive],” he said. “F--k you, and s--k my dick.”

In a statement about Davidson’s voicemail, PETA said, “If Pete had done his research, he would know that there’s no such thing as a hypoallergenic dog, that at least a quarter of dogs in shelters are purebreds, and that Petfinder has listings for homeless dogs of every breed under the sun, including the one he purchased.”

 

how do you stan a cause - animal rights - that is so righteous and good that literally anyone will want to agree with you, and still manage to be so unlikeable in every single action you take that noone in their right mind wants anything to do with you?
