Dearest Sassy, what an adorable Teddybear Hamster you are! You're beautiful and precious, so tiny you fit right into your dear person's hand. You have the most delightful personality, too. You and your dear Dad have "squeek" conversations, and you enjoy riding in dear Mom's pocket. You're a very kind, playful hammy, and you like to be held. You have two hamster housemates, and you're the elder stateslady of the crew, with your family for three years now. You all love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Sassy, on being chosen Pet of the Day! We hope you and your dear Dad and Mom and hammy housemates and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats.

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