Kaley Cuoco's Pets

Petey was Kaley Cuoco’s first dog and a gift from her boyfriend when she was 16. Petey was a Chihuahua-Dashchund mix. She said Petey is what got her into adopting animals. Petey passed away in January 2016. Petey also inspired the name of her company Peteypie Inc.

Chester, aka Chedder Cheese, was a rescue dog Kaley Cuoco adopted in October 2015. He sadly passed away in January 2016, just a week after her dog Petey died. He was a puppy, but was suspected to have had undetected medical problems.

Norman is a rescued Pitbull mix that Kaley Cuoco adopted way back in 2007 from a shelter in Los Angeles. Norman was around two years old at the time, had a broken leg, and was left tied to a pole in the rain outside the shelter. Due to the bad weather when they found him, the shelter originally named him Storm. The reality TV and orange ball enthusiast sadly passed away in February 2021 at around 16 years old.

Norman, you were my entire world for 14 years. Thank you for smiling at me as you left this world, confirming for me once again our language was ours alone. You will always have my heart.

Tank is her ex-husband Karl Cook’s English bulldog that Cuoco was often seen with.

Zeus was Kaley Cuoco’s rescued German Shepherd that she found in the street. Cuoco and her mom took her to a local shelter, but after no one came to claim him, they adopted him! Zeus has since passed away.

Kaley Cuoco is a legit Horse Girl and has four horses that we know she actively rides named Zaza, Thor, Santos, and Poker Face. She has more horses on her ranch, but hasn’t publicly shared details on them.

Bella, the beloved Show Horse that she adopted in 2016, passed away in September 2023.

Kaley also has a peacock that she apparently inherited.

Over the July 4th weekend in 2021, the Flight Attendant star announced that she and her now ex-husband Karl Cook adopted a senior dog named Larry. It’s believed Karl Cook kept Larry after their divorce.

Kaley Cuoco adopted a senior Chihuahua named Dump Truck, aka Dumpy, in the summer of 2020. Dumpy had his own Instagram, @dumps_does_ny, which has since been deleted. Dump Truck passed away in May 2023, and you can see Cuoco’s heartfelt tribute to the pooch here.

Kaley Cuoco had a rescued Pitbull mix named Shirley that she got in 2009 at 6 weeks old. She had to rehome Shirley in the early 2020s due to her becoming very aggressive with other dogs and having “mega fights” with Blue. In November 2024, Shirley passed away with cancer and Cuoco finally admitted that she rehomed Shirley.

Kaley Cuoco and Tom Pelphrey adopted their first rescue as a couple in October 2022 and named him King. King was a senior Chihuahua at 10 years old, and sadly passed away in February 2024. Both Cuoco and Pelphrey posted lengthy heartfelt tributes to King.

here are no words to describe our dearest little Kingy. He was the first dog @tommypelphrey and I rescued together and honestly the most special.
I saw him online shaking in a shelter in Atlanta while I was away in Germany , and asked the shelter to hold him because we just had to have him. A month later we were in Atlanta for Tom’s work, and we spent an entire day driving hours to go pick up King. It was ♥️! We did not have him nearly long enough. What started as a 6 pound , skinny , wouldn’t drink water , fur less, scared dog, turned into a chubby , hilarious , side plopping, eye kissing part of our family. The hardest part about adopting seniors with medical issues, is we truly don’t know how long we have. All I know is Kingy gave us the most joy over the last year in a half and we could not love him more. To everyone that helped with Kingy’s journey along the way, thank you. I urge you to rescue your next best friend He has left his paw print on our family’s hearts forever

Kaley Cuoco had a beloved show horse named Bionetty, aka Netty, aka Queen B. Netty retired in 2021 after six years of professional jumping.

For the last 6 years, my princess Netty has been nothing short of amazing … She was the first ‘real’ horse I ever sat on, and was the first in my official string. It was love at first sight. My first jump on her in Calgary, was a moment of ‘whoa’. I knew I would love her forever and that she was perfect for me. We won our first class together and our last. Our magical moments together are too many to count! From taking me to Spruce to Meadows to indoors at the LA Longines Masters never getting a rail and a blink of a second from 1st. She knew exactly where her feet were supposed to go every take off and every landing,” Cuoco said of her horse. “She was also a genius , keeping me safe and competitive at the same time. I hope Netty knows retirement doesn’t mean her life is over I feel this is my way of thanking her, with a brand new life. Living forever in our backyard, having babies and getting constant pocket mints from my dad. Bionetty, there will never be another like you. You will always be my Queen B! 🦄

Kaley Cuoco and her ex-husband Karl Cook adopted a Dwarf Pony named Fiona, who sadly didn’t live long due to her life-health issues. Fiona passed away in May 2020.

After a very short time together, our precious dwarf pony rescue Fiona, passed away last night.. she came to us & @pomponioranch @mrtankcook in such terrible shape, we were thrilled we got any time with her at all.

Let me make this very clear…there is a reason she was a rescue. We take on many of these dwarf ponies and it looks so cute and exciting that everyone wants one. It’s not. They have severe medical issues and most have been completely mistreated and not taken care of. Fiona was a prime example: she came to us malnourished, horrible feet, rotting teeth, she needed help to stand every morning and that’s just the beginning. These animals should not live this way and should not be bred this way. It’s WRONG. We did all we could but her small body could not survive. She no longer has to live in pain and she passed away covered in blankets surrounded with love.

We will continue to save everything we can but know days like this will happen. We love you princess Fiona!!
