Dearest Gia, what a beautiful, elegant Sphynx lady you are! You are absolutely stunning in both of those great photos, and thank you for sharing them with us. You're so noble in the first one, sitting up straight on that chair with your tail tucked out between your front legs. Then in the close-up face shot, you are utterly adorable peeking out from beneath that blanket. You have such a sweet face with that cute little nose and those lovely big eyes! Your dear person says you act like a model: you know when the camera is on you, and you hold poses instinctively. I look forward to seeing you on a magazine cover some day! I wish I could reach through the screen and over to Vicenza, Italy to pet you! I can't, of course, but I know your loving and beloved person will pet you for me .
And what a delightful personality you have! You're very smart, and you understand when you have to go see the vet or when your person bathes you, which you need regularly because with no fur your Sphynx skin gets oily. You lick your person on the hand when you want to be cuddled. You love watching out the window when it's sunny out. As he/she says, everybody loves you because you're "really polite, educated and sooooo soft, silky and smooth!" Your skin is like velvet, and you're warm to the touch in cool weather. You and your person love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Gia, on being chosen today's Cat of the Day! We hope you and your dear person 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.
