Dearest Cosmo, you are so good-looking, utterly adorable! That tabby and white fur looks so soft and has such a pretty color scheme. You are so handsome dressed up in your collar and tie! And you have the sweetest face there, with the two-tone nose and that cute tooth peeking out and those lovely big eyes, nearly closed there. You look like you are grinning in those great photos, and maybe you are! I wish I could reach through the screen and over to Tacoma to pet you, and pet your kitten housemate Lawliet, too. I can't, of course, but I know your loving and beloved Purrrson will pet you both for me .
And what a delightful Purrrsonality you have! You are very bouncy and love to play with toy balls that roll without sound and toy mice and to play chase with Lawliet. You have asthma that slows you down some, but you know when it's time to take a break and rest on your dear Purrrson's bed. You've often gotten hurt from being too curious, resulting in many vet visits. Please be careful when you go outside! (Or maybe consider becoming an indoor-only cat; much safer!) You are very talkative and affectionate, telling your dear Purrrson with a purr-meow sound that you want to be fed or petted. You love to knead people, especially when they're working on the computer. You and your dear Purrrson and Lawliet all love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Cosmo, on being chosen today's Cat of the Day! We hope you and dear Lawliet and your dear Purrrson and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats.
I meant," said Ipslore bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worthwhile?"
Death thought about it.
CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.
