Terrific Turk!
Dearest Turk, a.k.a. Turk the Skurk, you are terrific indeed! What a darling young girl you are, just five months old! You're a gorgeous Tuxedo kitty, so handsome with soft-looking fur, mostly grey with white around your nose and mouth and on your tummy, and you have white gloves and socks to go with your pink paw-pads! Thank you for sharing those great photos with us. You're utterly adorable in all of them, looking so happy and relaxed and content. I wish I could reach through the screen and down to West Palm Beach, FL and pet you, and pet all your kitty housemates and friends, too! I can't, of course, but I know your loving and beloved Purrrson will pet you all for me .
And what an amazing story you have to tell! You were a feral kitten that your dear Purrrson-to-be grabbed by the neck shortly before last Thanksgiving. You were her own special Thanksgiving treat, and you were named for that. Your first 24 hours in the bathroom were chaotic, to say the least! Well, you were just a baby, and you were terrified. But you started to realize you were safe, and she let you out of the bathroom before she usually would have. She has several other kitties she's rescued, and you soon became part of the group. She had been planning to socialize you and bring you to the local shelter to be adopted, but you had wormed your way into her affections and she couldn't see giving you up! The other reason she kept you is that you're scared of anyone but her. That was the case with some of the other ferals she's rescued, who live with her. You and they are all safe there now!
Your Purrrson is sorry she was not able to catch your three siblings, because they moved away after she caught you. Recently she found where they are now, and she feeds them every day. She hopes to TNVR them before long, and she'll continue feeding them and talking to them each day. And her New Year's Resolution is to work even harder at TNVR! My very deepest gratitude to your dear Purrrson for all she is doing for so many cats who otherwise have no one to look after them and care for them! Blessings to her, and blessings to you and all the other cats whose lives have been made better with her work and concern and love.
You have a delightful Purrrsonality! You're a firecracker, full of energy, and you make your Purrrson smile with your antics. You're also very affectionate, for a few minutes a day, anyway! You and she (and all your kitty housemates and friends) all love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Turk, on being chosen today's Cat of the Day! We hope you and your dear Purrrson and kitty pals 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.
