Blessed with his name due to his black and white fur, Oreo was remembered by the Second Lady last week on Twitter.

“Rest in peace Oreo. You touched a lot of hearts in your little life,” Karen wrote.
One heart he touched was that of the Pence’s youngest daughter, 23-year-old Audrey.
Oreo surely lived a life to be cherished amid a veritable treasure trove of animals. The Pences have a bunny, Marlon Bundo — who is also black and white — and Pickles, another cat.
