Dearest Gigi, you are gorgeous! What a fine-looking gentleman you are! You are so pretty in all those great photos, and thank you for sharing them with us. That ebony fur, complete with the white patch on your chest, is so sleek and soft-looking, and what a sweet face you have with those lovely big green eyes. And how precious, you with your adorable sister Kiki in many of those pictures. I wish I could reach through the screen and over to Lowell to pet you both! I can't, of course, but I know your loving and beloved Purrrsons will pet you for me .
And what a story you have to tell! As a kitten you were thrown out onto the street by your first "owners" who decided they couldn't take care of you and your siblings. (And I hope so much that they all wound up in good homes, too.) A good person rescued you and kept you safe until you found your true Furrrever family through Craigslist. You settled right in with them as a completely indoor cat, until you accidentally got out this past Halloween. You were missing until 23 days later, when your Purrrson found you sitting right outside the garage when he/she came home from work! You walked right up to her/him to be picked up and taken back inside. A vet check the next day determined you were completely healthy aside from having lost 2.5 lbs. It took only minutes for you to return to your normal purry, cuddly self, and you've barely stopped purring since! You and your dear Purrrsons and Kiki all love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Gigi, on being chosen today's Cat of the Day! We hope you and your dear Kiki and Purrrsons 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.
