Dearest Timmy, you are absolutely gorgeous! What a beautiful Dwarf Rabbit you are, with that soft-looking fur in so many shades of agouti coloring and that sweet face with those lovely big dark eyes. You and your dear young person Fabian are very good friends, aren't you! He feeds you every morning and plays with you after school every day. You and he love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Timmy, on being chosen today's Pet of the Day! We hope you and your dear Fabian 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 carrots, apples, old bread that is nice and hard, and hay!

Death thought about it.
CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.
