Dearest Nigel, you are absolutely adorable! What a sweet, precious little Siamese kitten you are in that first picture, and sweet, precious kitten along with your sweet, precious brother Angus in the second one. Thank you for sharing those great photos with us! I wish I could reach through the screen and down to Las Vegas to pet you both. I can't, of course, but I know your loving and beloved Purrrents will pet you for me .
And what a great story you have to tell! Your dear Purrrents adopted you as a rescue kitty, after you'd been rescued from the ditch you'd been born in! We thank and send our blessings to whoever rescued you and brought you to safety, and your dear Purrrents for adopting you and bringing you to your Furrrever home, which you share with your slightly-older brother Angus and much older sister Elvis. You and Angus play together all day; Elvis tolerates you.
You and Dad bonded immediately, and you wait for him to come home each day to talk to you and tickle you all over. Then after he goes to bed, you snuggle up to his neck and suck it while padding his chest.. several times a night, whenever he wakes up or rolls over! You also like to chase bugs and flies and eat them. You don't rest until you get them! One time after Dad gave you your pill, you pretended to swallow it but you didn't fool him. He opened your mouth, and out came the pill.. along with a fly you were saving for later! You and your dear Angus and Elvis and Purrrents all love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Nigel, on being chosen today's Cat of the Day! We hope you and dear Angus and Elvis and Purrrents 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.
