Dearest Meggsie, a.k.a. Ginger Megs, what a good-looking orangie boy you are! You are so long and lean. I love your soft orange fur and your sweet face. That's a great picture of you washing your leg. I wish I could reach through the screen around the world to New South Wales, Australia to pet you.. but since I can't, I know your young friend will pet you loads for me .
And how nice that you and she have grown up together! As a kitten you were her bribe for getting her vaccinations when she was four years old. Now you are both 14 years older. You are full of fun and affection, and you greet everyone with a friendly meow. if you don't think you're getting enough attention, you give the nearby person a friendly nip. You have other kitties and some horsies for friends, too.
We're so glad you survived the snake attack! How awful that must have been for you and all your family. You and they all love each other very much, don't you. What a delightful love-filled home you all share!
Congratulations, darling Meggsie, on being selected today's Cat of the Day! We hope you and your young friend and the kitties and the horsies 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.
