Dearest Slushy, you are absolutely adorable! That Tuxedo fur is so pretty and looks so soft, and what a sweet face you have with that two-tone nose and those lovely big pale-green eyes. Thank you for sharing that great photo with us! How Purrrfect you are there, peering out the window to check for any approaching intruders. I know your dear Dad appreciates you keeping him and your home safe. I wish I could reach through the screen and down to Hammond, IN to pet you, and pet your black lab housemate, too! I can't, of course, but I know your loving and beloved Dad will pet you both for me .
And what a delightful Purrrsonality you have! You have your independent streak and like to be alone, but you are also the defender of your home, keeping an eye on anyone who comes near. Ever since you were a kitten, you and your dear Dad have been playing fetch, Dad throwing small fuzzy balls and you bringing them back for him to throw again. When he comes home, you're sitting on the chair waiting for him. You love on him at night, sleeping on his back. You're one on one with him, and you and he love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Slushy, on being chosen today's Cat of the Day! We hope you and your dear Dad and black lab pal and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats. A happy New Year to you and your family, and may 2019 be wonderful for you all!
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.
