It turns out that Hunter has known Schatzi for a lot longer than most people realized. Hunter was Schatzi's godparent and took over her care when she was 3. At that age, the little fennec adored the owl, and would wear that red shirt every single day if she were allowed to, with the reasoning that it was "just like Hunta's." Hunter was clearly crazy for the child and more than willing to care for her, including giving her cookies and lap sits.
