It may not be what he wanted, but he said it repeatedly:

"How do I replace whatever is in that 'pets' column with the word 'zombie' no matter if its dog, fish, cat, porcupine, etc?"

"Is there a command such as REPLACE_COLUMN which will just change the data in that specific 'pets' column irrespective of the rows value?"
