Lovely Lotta!
Dearest Lotta, you are adorable! What an utterly precious young lady you are! You are such a pretty girl with that striking Tabby fur pattern in grey and black with touches of orange. And what a sweet face you have with that cute little nose and those lovely big golden eyes. I wish I could reach through the screen and across the ocean to Kleinbodungen, Germany to pet you! I can't, of course, but I know your loving and beloved friend Florian will pet you for me .
And what a delightful personality you have! Your dear Florian loves your dark spotted soft fur and mysterious eyes. Your people never know just what you're thinking, but you watch everything they do, and you're always ready to pounce. You run to Florian when he comes home from school. You love to play and pounce, but you're learning that he won't play with you if you use your claws! You and he love each other very much, don't you. He says you are the best cat in the world. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Lotta, on being chosen today's Cat of the Day! We hope you and your dear Florian 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.
