About
Nerdle was Nerdle Pop founder April E. Allford’s family cat back in the ’80s and ’90s. He was born in her childhood bedroom with the cotton candy pink-hued walls, to a orange tabby named Chicky. April and her family thought the name best represented his signature, happy-go-lucky personality. Flash forward 30 years, and Nerdle Pop […]
