S12·E11 Mister Rogers Talks About PETS

Mister Rogers returns with Bob Trow's dog, Barney, which he has been pet-sitting overnight. He talks about the time he and Barney spent together and reflects on a long walk they took. Bob Trow then arrives at the house to pick up his dog.

Taking out a toy dog, Mister Rogers sings I'm Taking Care of You.

In the Neighborhood of Make-Believe, it's night time and Lady Aberlin is "platypus-sitting" for Ana while Dr. Bill and Elsie Jean go out. Ana sings a lullaby, All the Pretty Horses, as she prepares for bedtime and reveals that she would like to have a kitten as a pet. She also mentions an upcoming parade being planned for her birthday but asks if she can also have a small party with just Prince Tuesday and Daniel Tiger.
