Dearest Big Gus, what an adorable Miniature Horse you are! That mane and forelock(?) are really something! (They had me wondering at first: do you live in the White House? ) You are the sweetest fellow, too, and what a story you have to tell! You've been through a few changes but you and "Little" Red and Lawyer Lady are now living happily ever after. You and they love each other dearly, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Big Gus, on being chosen today's Pet of the Day! We hope you and Red and Lawyer Lady and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats.

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