Pete Davidson told PETA to “suck my d**k” after the animal rights group blasted him for buying a dog from a pet store.

The Saturday Night Live star left an explicit voicemail for Daphna Nachminovitch, senior vice president of cruelty investigations, in which he told her he is “severely allergic to dogs” so he can’t adopt just any breed.

“My mum’s f**king dog who is two years old died a week before so we’re all so sad, so I had to get a specific dog” he said in the voicemail, obtained by Page Six, adding that the dog was actually for his mother.

“So why don’t you do your research before you f**king create news stories for people because you’re boring …”

The Bupkis star, 29, concluded his call by telling Nachminovitch, “F**k you and suck my d**k.”

The animal rights organisation doubled down on their criticisms, saying if Davidson had actually done his research, he would’ve learned that there is “no such thing as a hypo-allergenic dog.”

It appears the King of Staten Island actor has calmed down since leaving his Christian Bale-esque voicemail, as he told TMZ in a statement that his anger was due to the grief he and his family are experiencing in light of their dog Henry’s passing.

“I haven’t seen my mum and sister cry like that in over 20 years. I was trying to cheer up my family. I was already upset that the store had filmed me without my permission or acknowledgment,” he explained, referring to Citipups, a pet store in New York City.

“Then this organisation (PETA) made a public example of us, making our grieving situation worse. I am upset,” he continued.

“It was a poor choice of words. I shouldn’t have said what I said, but I am not sorry for standing up for myself and my family.”

Davidson and his girlfriend, Chase Sui Wonders, were filmed at the West Village pet store purchasing a cavapoo – seemingly together; however, it turns out the dog was actually for his mum.

Before PETA launched their war against the couple, fans also called the Bodies Bodies Bodies co-stars “disgusting” for shopping instead of adopting.
