Dearest Otto in Germany, you are gorgeous! What a beautiful Axolotl you are! And I bet your brother Axel is just as pretty. I had never heard of Axolotls before, either. (I always thought that was a funny word made up by Mad Magazine.) How nice to find out that they are living creatures and just what amazing albino amphibians you are! You make your dear person smile with all your energy and antics. You and Axel and he/she love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Otto, on being chosen today's Pet of the Day! We hope you both and your dear person 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.
