Marvelous Miss Miz!
Dearest Miz, what a beautiful kitty you are! That thick grey fur is so pretty and looks so soft and plush, and what a sweet face you have with your cute darker-grey nose and those lovely pale-green eyes! You are absolutely PURRRFECT sitting there on that couch. I wish I could reach through the screen and across the ocean to Rehovot, Israel to pet you, and pet your kitty and doggie housemates, too! I can't, of course, but I know your loving and beloved human ladies will pet you all for me .
And what a delightful Purrrsonality you have! You are very sweet and affectionate, and you welcome your dear ladies at the door when they come home from work. You are rather shy about showing yourself to visiting strangers right away. You hate to have your photo taken, but you posed beautifully for this one! You know a good trick: you sit when you're asked to. You occasionally like playing with a small paper ball or a feather. You and your dear family members all love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
I was horrified to read of you and your two brothers being thrown away into the dump like trash. (Whoever did that to you deserves the same fate.) I am so very, very glad and grateful that you were rescued and wound up with your Purrrfect Furrrever family! I'm sending my deepest hopes and prayers that your brothers were rescued and found wonderful homes, too.
Congratulations, darling Miz, on being chosen today's Cat of the Day! We hope you and your dear ladies and kitties and doggie and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats, maybe a special serving of croissant soft parts and corn and olives and "Zimmes!"
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.
