Dearest Francisco, what a gorgeous young man you are, such a dapper guy in your grey and white morning suit that looks so soft! You have the sweetest face with that cute darker grey nose and those huge ears and those lovely big eyes. You are adorable in both of those great photos, still pretty kitten-like if you ask me! In that one of you lying on your back, are you asking for a tummy rub? I wish I could reach through the screen and up over to Calgary to rub that tummy (only if you want it rubbed, of course) and pet you, and pet your sister Fur Fur and rub her tummy if she so desires, too. I can't, of course, but I know your loving and beloved Purrrsons will pet you both and rub suitable tummies for me .
And what a delightful Purrrsonality you have, just being the kitten you still are! You purr really loudly to let everyone know how happy you are. You love to chase your friends at high speed and play with your toy mousie and take long naps on Meowmie's belly. You are very smart, doing things like taking a drink from someone's glass of milk and hiding your necklace when you don't want to wear it. You and your dear Purrrsons and Fur Fur all love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Francisco, on being chosen today's Cat of the Day! We hope you and your dear Purrrsons and Fur Fur 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.
