Dearest Josie the Rattus Fuzzius, you are adorable indeed! What a cute, sweet little Fancy Rat you are, with your white coat and dark ears and eyes and pink nose and toes. And what a great story you have to tell! Your Skin-Sister decided to surprise her rat-loving Mom with her favorite pet rat as Pet Talk's Pet of the Day for today, and here you are!
Dear Mom has many pet rats and is known as "The Rat Lady." You're very loving and full of energy, a little monkey at heart! You love to explore and run around getting into trouble. You're always cuddling up to Mom, and you run to her when you hear a loud noise. You and she love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Josie, on being chosen today's Pet of the Day! We hope you and your dear Mom and Sister and all your family and friends, all species, are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats, maybe with a special serving of frozen peas!!

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