The “iCarly” alum, who put her career on hold to attend college at University
of Southern California, received a very special Christmas gift this year: a new
puppy. The 19-year-old introduced Penelope, who will go by the nickname Penny.
Cosgrove’s new addition fills a void in her life – and heart. In October,
Cosgrove’s previous pooch, Pearl, passed away at the age of 14, leaving the
actress/singer heartbroken. At the time, Cosgrove shared her loss with her
Twitter followers, posting, "My dog, Pearl, passed away today. She was there on
my first day of kindergarten and my first day of college. I'll love her
forever." She later opened up about her canine companion to People,
saying, "She was a part of our family, and because I was an only child, she was
a really big part of my life. Every time I look back on a memory, she was
there."
Now she will create happy new memories with Penny – as roommates in
Cosgrove’s new home. Currently a freshman at USC, the former Nickelodeon star
(iCarly aired its final episode in November) recently moved out of her childhood
house and into her own digs in Los Angeles, which has taken a little getting
used to. "It's definitely weird,” she told Parade of being on her own.
“Growing up, my next door neighbor was my best friend and an only child too. But
now she's a 30-minute drive! Moving almost seems as big if not bigger, as far as
adjustment. [Before] I lived in the same house my whole life and I lived 20
minutes out of L.A. Now I live in L.A. It's nice to be able to have all of my
friends over to go swimming and visit and stuff. It's different but it's
nice."
And with the arrival of Penny, we suspect living on her own will be even
nicer – with cuddle sessions galore!
