Julia Olympio, a popular Brazilian influencer, has been left heartbroken after her pet duck, Patolino, was stolen.
Patolino was like a child to Julia, and she is now dealing with a “big void” after the theft.
Her condo was broken into, and the thieves took the duck with them, leaving Julia to pray for Patolino’s safe return.
She does not believe that Patolino was killed since “we would have found the body” and has been in contact with a lost pets expert.
Julia treated Patolino like her own child and had taken the duck with her to the beach and countryside.
She has since enlisted the help of animal recovery experts and a company that specializes in finding pets to search for Patolino.
The influencer is yet to give up her search and has taken to Instagram, where her anguish over the lost animal was clear. She is hopeful that with a lot of faith in God, Patolino will be found and returned to her.
The theft of Julia’s beloved pet duck highlights the emotional attachment that people can have to their pets, regardless of their species.
It is a distressing experience to have a pet stolen, and it is commendable that Julia is taking all possible measures to recover her animal.
The incident also underscores the need for pet owners to take appropriate precautions to keep their animals safe from theft.
