Lovely Louis!
Dearest Louis, what a beautiful fellow you are! That long fluffy white Persian fur is so pretty and looks so very soft, and what a sweet face you have with that cute pink nose and those lovely big golden eyes. You are absolutely precious in both of those great photos! You're so relaxed and content there, with your tail curled up along your body. I wish I could reach through the screen and all the way to Beirut, Lebanon to pet you! I can't, of course, but I know your loving and beloved people will pet you for me .
And what a terrific story you have to tell! You have been with your dear family your entire life, since the day you were born. Your people even helped your mom deliver you! Now you are seventeen years old, and what a great life it's been and still is. You are very clever and will even kiss someone if asked! You are jealous of the family bird when it gets any attention. Nothing to be jealous of.. your people have plenty of love for you both! You try to catch pigeons outside. Sometimes you get one, and sometimes it flies away. You and your family members all love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Louis, on being chosen today's Cat of the Day! We hope you and your dear people and bird housemate 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.
