Logic of pets (Posted on 2023-08-21) Difficulty: 3 of 5
Robert and Andrew are two men, and Mary and Jessica are two women. Their last names are Jones, Smith, Coleman, and Thompson. One of them has a dog, one has a cat, one has a bird, and one has a rabbit. The pets are named Goody, Lovey, Lucky, and Weirdo.

1. Robert's pet's name starts with L.
2. Jessica Coleman has a cat, but it is not named Weirdo.
3. Mary does not have a dog because she hates dogs.
4. Lucky is a rabbit.
5. Mr. Jones has a bird.
6. Mary's last name is not Thompson.
7. Weirdo's last name is not Jones.

What is the first name and last name of each person? What pet does each person have? What is the name of each pet?
