Adorable Fani and Miss Whiskers!
Dearest Fani and Miss Whiskers, what an adorable pair of Fancy Mice you are! You're both so cute, with your soft-looking, colorful coats and your sweet faces with the lovely big dark eyes. You were originally mice for a school science fair project. Once the science fair was over, your dear young friend kept you both, since mice like to have cage mates. You're lots of fun for him/her to watch! You have two wheels, but you usually both go on the same one, one in one direction and the other in the opposite, so you don't go anywhere! Your friend has learned a lot from you, including responsibility, to be gentle and patient, and what the meaning of limber is. You all love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Fani and Miss Whiskers, on being chosen today's Pets of the Day! We hope you and your dear young friend 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.
