It is possible a pet with this id does not exist, so use get_object_or_404,
or catch the DoesNotExist here and raise a 404.

If you add 'blank=True' to 'views = models.IntegerField(default=0)' in your
model, you don't need to add the last line. You also don't need the
'self.views = 0' in the save method below:

Don't think it will solve your problem, some tips though.
