Dearest Pickles, what a beautiful Green Parakeet you are, and what a sweet story you have to tell! Your dear person-to-be had some fish and loved them, but also wanted a pet he/she could really bond with. She/he went to the pet store, saw you in a cage full of parakeets, and knew right away you were the one! Home you went, and after you had settled in, you and your person bonded with music. He/she played some music, and you started singing! How perfect that is, and how delightful it must be to hear you sing! You two love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Pickles, on being chosen Pet 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.

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