Dearest Slushy, you are adorable! What a gorgeous Tuxedo lady you are! Your black and white fur looks so soft and has such unusual markings, and what a sweet face you have with those lovely big yellow-green eyes. You are adorable and so comfortable in both of those great photos, and thank you for sharing them with us. I wish I could reach through the screen and over to Hammond, IN to pet you, and pet your doggie pal too. I can't, of course, but I know your loving and beloved Dad will pet you both for me .
And what a delightful Purrrsonality you have! You are independent and defend your home, making sure that visitors pass your inspection before they are allowed in. You started playing fetch-and-retrieve with small fuzzy balls your dear Dad would throw when you were a kitten. You've been doing it ever since, and even your black lab pal won't do that! You welcome Dad when he comes home, sitting on your chair waiting for him. Then at night you love on him, sleeping on his back. You and he and your black lab pal all love each other dearly, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Slushy, on being chosen today's Cat of the Day! We hope you and your dear Dad and black lab pal 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.
