Nick and Muriel have gone thirteen years without sharing their home with a single animal, but there is a whiff of change in the air. Are they responsible enough? Do they truly want to scoop poopies? Are birds a viable substitution for a snuggly nug? Is Nick a dog person masquerading as a cat person? Can Muriel talk in a normal adult speaking voice when she’s around animals? Nick and Muriel head out to L.A.’s Crumbs & Whiskers and Bark N Bitches for answers.
