Dearest Janosch, what a handsome fellow you are, indeed! You are absolutely gorgeous with that soft-looking brown-tabby fur and that sweet face with the white mustache and chin and the big kitty-smile. Thank you for sharing that great photograph with us! You look absolutely content there, resting and relaxing with that big smile. I wish I could reach through the screen and across the ocean to Germany to pet you! I can't, of course, but I know your loving and beloved young friend will pet you for me .
And what a delightful personality you have! You are very sweet and playful. You like to play with your young friend's feet after breakfast, happily following him/her around. When she/he goes off to school, you go to sleep. You sleep, smiling, most of the day. Then after your friend gets home, you like to go outside together. You don't come when you're called, but that's okay; you're a cat! You and your dear young friend love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Janosch, on being chosen today's Cat of the Day! We hope you and your dear young friend 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.
