Dearest Mimie, what a beautiful French lady you are! You are so pretty with that brown-tabby fur with the white patch around your mouth. That fur looks so very soft to pet, and what a sweet face you have with those lovely big eyes! You are so cute in those great photographs, draped over that bar. I wish I could reach through the screen and across the ocean to Combourg, Brittany, in France to pet you, and pet your kitty friend Tigrou, too! I can't, of course, but I know your loving and beloved Purrrson Fabien will pet you both for me .
And what a delightful personality you have! You kiss your dear Fabien on the nose when you want to eat. You love treats and recognize his voice when he tells you the word for treats. You are very sweet and give him your love and affection. You and he and Tigrou all love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Mimie, on being chosen today's Cat of the Day! We hope you and your dear Tigrou and Fabien 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.
