Omigosh, dearest little Tigger, aren't you just the most precious little creature ever! That fluffy colorful orange fur is so pretty and looks so soft, and what a sweet, sweet face you have with those perky little ears and those lovely big round eyes, with such an expression of wonder and delight in them! You are such a cute young man there, looking straight out at me. I wish I could reach through the screen and down to Columbus to pet you! I can't, of course, but I know your loving and beloved Purrrson and ten female roommates will all pet you for me .
And what a delightful Purrrsonality you have, already at just two months old! Your dear Purrrson says you are super rambunctious and energetic. You love to cuddle and also to pounce on her feet when she is under the covers. You also love string cheese! You get lots of attention and affection from your dear Purrrson and her ten roommates. You and she love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Tigger, on being chosen today's Cat of the Day! We hope you and your dear Purrrson and roommates and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats, maybe an extra-special serving of string cheese!
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.
