Dearest Bert and Lily, what a gorgeous couple you are! You are both beautiful in those great photos, which show PURRRfectly how well you are matched! Your fur is so pretty and so soft-looking, with different Tabby patterns and colors that harmonize so nicely, and your sweet faces show your happiness and contentment so well. I wish I could reach through the screen and over to New York City 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 nice story you have to tell! Bert, you came to live with your dear Purrrsons and their dear cat Michue three years ago. Michue wasn't well enough to be friendly with you, and we're sorry that she passed away a year later. Then Lily joined the family. She was shy at first but you soon convinced her she was safe. Now you have the companion and playmate you'd always wished for! You two are the best of friends, and you make your dear Purrrsons smile with all your antics and energy. You all love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you all share!
Congratulations, darling Bert and Lily, on being chosen today's Cats of the Day! We hope you both and your dear Purrrsons 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 Michue Angel is rejoicing with you at the Rainbow Bridge!
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.
