Dearest Effie, you are adorable! What an absolutely gorgeous Sacred Birman lady you are! That fluffy fur looks so very soft, and what a sweet face you have with those great big lovely blue eyes! Thank you for sharing all those terrific photos with us! They show you in so many different poses and moods. I wish I could reach through the screen and over to Seattle to pet you, and pet your cousin Bob, too! I can't, of course, but I'm sure your loving and beloved Purrrson will pet you both for me .
And what a delightful Purrrsonality you have! You are quite the communicator, letting your dear Purrrson know when your food bowl needs to be refilled. You enjoy bird-watching and sleeping under the down comforter. (Please don't chew yarn! If you swallow a piece, it could cause a blockage which can be a serious medical emergency!) You put up with a card ride in order to visit your cousin Bob. You and he have a great time doing things like using mole hills as litter boxes! You love to cuddle, at times you choose. You and your dear Purrrson love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Effie, on being chosen today's Cat of the Day! We hope you and Cousin Bob 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.
