Dearest Sykoe, what an amazing kitty you are! You were supposed to be a black kitten, but somehow you wound up as a Lynx Point Siamese. Your dear young Purrrson was upset at first, but soon you won his/her heart. All those colors in your soft-looking fur are stunning, and what a sweet face you have with those lovely big blue eyes! Thank you for sharing those great photos with us. You are adorable in every one of them, and how precious to see you as the young kitten you were when you first arrived home. I wish I could reach through the screen and up to Wasilla, AK to pet you, and pet all your other kitty and doggie housemates, too! I can't, of course, but we know your loving and beloved Purrrsons will pet you all for me .
And what a delightful Purrrsonality you have! Your dear Purrrson has one story after another to tell of all your antics and energy. You are a balance of independent and really lovable, doing your own thing most of the time but expecting your daily love from your human sibs. You get along fine with your doggie sibs, and you like to get on top of the fridge. You love plastic lids and bottles and stealing hair ties. (To Sykoe's dear Purrrsons: Please don't let Sykoe play with plastic wrappers, or with hair ties either! Both are very unsafe for kitties: if he were to swallow one or part of one, it could lead to a very serious medical emergency.) You love to give kisses, not licking but pressing your nose firmly against lips, nose and cheeks. You enjoy having your nose touched in general, nibbling on human fingers until you get it poked. You and your dear family members all love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Sykoe, on being chosen today's Cat of the Day! We hope you and your dear Purrrsons and kitties and doggies 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.
