Dearest Eclipse, what a beautiful skeleton of a horse you are! You are absolutely gorgeous, with or without that horse-safe paint job. I bet you are already making a big hit in your community. And what a delightful personality you have, too! You are your dear person's first horse, and you and she/he understand each other perfectly. You know when he/she needs some cheering up, and you do the job right away. You both love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Eclipse, on being chosen today's Pet of the Day! We hope you 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.
