Dearest Zoe, a.k.a. Nutbar, Zoezoe, Little Girl, Wrig-ged-dy Pig-ge-let, Silly Girl, Kitten, what a beautiful Cat of the Day you are, and what a beautiful Angel! You are so pretty with that classic-Tabby and white fur that looks so soft, and that sweet face with the cute ear-and-a-half and the lovely big eyes. Thank you for sharing all those great photos with us! You are so happy and contented in them all. You have such distinctive markings (that "belt" across your tummy is something I've never seen before). I wish I could reach through the screen and ...all the way to the Rainbow Bridge! to pet you. I can't, of course, but I know the other Angels are all petting you for me.
Your loving and beloved Mom Candace has written the most touching and uplifting tribute to you. What a long, wonderful story you have to tell, of such a long, glorious life shared with her and kitty housemates Oscar and Cole! Your love for each other shines through completely. They all miss and grieve you so very much. Please send some Angelic purrrs to their hearts to remind them that love is eternal, you are watching over them, and you will all be together again, One Fine Day...
Congratulations, darling Zoe Angel, on being chosen today's Cat of the Day! We hope your dearest Candace and Oscar and Cole and family and friends are all enjoying a fine celebration in your honor, full of lovely stories and shared memories and games and treats. We know the other Angels are all rejoicing with you!
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.
