Sprinkles

From Dunderpedia: The Office Wiki

Sprinkles was a white cat belonging to Angela Martin. Sprinkles lived from April 20, 1985, to September 22, 2007.

Sprinkles suffered from many health conditions, and needed insulin, an ace inhibitor, pills, and cream underneath her tail in order to survive. Dwight "mercy kills" Sprinkles when Angela asks him to give Sprinkles her medicine during his lunch hour. Because she was made by Pam to visit Meredith, who is in the hospital because Michael has hit her with his car, Angela cannot administer Sprinkles' medication. She admits that Dwight is the only person she trusts to do the job. After Angela returns from visiting Meredith in the hospital, Dwight informs Angela that "You left the TV on, and your cat is dead."

Because of his farming background, Dwight thinks it necessary to euthanize Sprinkles instead of making her endure the cocktail of medicines she required. He admits to putting a dead Sprinkles in the freezer; however, upon her arrival home, Angela discovers a shredded bag of frozen French fries, implying that Sprinkles was not all the way dead when Dwight closed the freezer door. This led to Dwight and Angela breaking up, and later caused Angela to get together with Andy Bernard.
