Dearest Smoki Baby Jane, you are adorable! Just one look, and I'm in love. That's " ..the most beautifully intelligent face you'll ever see," indeed! Thank you for the delightful report on you and your dear family. They had had small dogs before, Manchester Chihuahua Murphy) and mixed toy poodle Sherri. You were their first big one, and you've been the perfect pet and friend for the family, outperforming all expectations! You watch over your dear Dad and dear Mom Mary Jane and three dear kitties with an intensity and mothering care one might expect from one's parent, not a pet. You even babysit the smaller grandchildren! Mom and Dad have seven children and nine grandchildren, and you're as precious to them as any child. You all love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Smoki Baby Jane, on being chosen Dog of the Day! We hope you and your dear Mom and Dad and seven children and nine grandchildren and three kitties 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.
