Dearest Elmo, what an adorable Abbyssinian-Peruvian mix Guinea Pig you are, indeed! You are absolutely precious, the sweetest little thing only two weeks old. You're the runt of your litter, and your dear person wasn't sure you'd make it. But you did, and you're getting bigger and happier every day! You're a bit shy, but your curiosity usually wins out and you come see your person to investigate. You and he/she love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Elmo, on being chosen Pet of the Day! We hope you and your dear person and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats.

Death thought about it.
CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.
