Dearest Bluebell, what a beautiful blue Budgie you are! Those feathers are absolutely gorgeous, and you have the sweetest, happiest-looking face. And what a delightful personality you have, too! You are your dear person's first bird, and since you arrived two more have joined the family! You are very independent, and you like to visit your person at times of your choosing. You and he/she love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Bluebell, on being chosen today's Pet of the Day! We hope you and your dear person and birdie housemates and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats.

Death thought about it.
CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.
