Dearest Star, what a stunningly beautiful Angora, Tortoiseshell mix lady you are! You are absolutely gorgeous with that fluffy multi-colored fur that looks so very soft, and that sweet face with the cute little dark speckled nose and the lovely big golden eyes. Thank you for sharing those terrific photos with us! You are adorable in every one of them. I wish I could reach through the screen and down to Manor, TX to pet you. I can't, of course, but I know your loving and beloved Purrrsons will pet you for me .
And what an amazing story of history you have to tell! Your great grandparents came into your dear Purrrson's life when he/she was only five years old. From generation to generation they and she/he have all loved each other dearly. Now it is 21 years later, and you are a beautiful mix of all your forebears, shining this legacy of love with beauty and grace (and of course cattitude at times). You enjoy walking through the grass and feeling the tickling of grass on your paws and the sun's warmth on your back. And you love being cuddled and brushed and told you are gorgeous (which you already know). You and your dear Purrrson love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Star, on being chosen today's Cat of the Day! We hope you 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. We know your previous generations on earth or at the Rainbow Bridge are rejoicing with you!
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.
