Lovely Louie!
Dearest Louie, what a beautiful Nosy Be Blue Panther Chameleon you are, so lovely indeed with that brilliant green coloring and thick curling tail! You like to get out of your cage and watch the world from the curtain rods. You enjoy eating mealworms right out of your dear person's hand, using your long tongue. You also like to catch the crickets off the side of your cage. You and your person love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Louie, on being chosen today's 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 and maybe a special serving of mealworms!

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