Dearest Ash, you are adorable, indeed! What a sweet, precious little Syrian Hamster you are! You are so very cute, with that fluffy brown fur that looks so soft, those cute little pink hands, and that sweet face with perky ears and lovely big dark eyes. You're just seven months old, and a bit shy but friendly. You were an oh-so-special Christmas present for your dear young friend Samantha! You sleep all day and get active when you wake up. You love to explore, sometimes getting into trouble when you do. Once your dear persons had to cut open a living room chair after you decided to crawl inside it! You all love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Ash, on being chosen Pet of the Day! We hope you and your dear Samantha and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats, with a special serving of baby spinach and a bit of popcorn!

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