Dearest Edek, you are stunning indeed! What a breathtakingly beautiful Agama Lizard you are! You're so pretty, standing there in that window with the sun shining in so brightly. And you have such a delightful personality, too. Your dear person finds you fascinating to watch! You're an insectivore, so you eat mealworms and dried crickets, and any live bugs that make their way into your habitat! You and your person love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Edek, 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.
