Dearest Joko, you are absolutely stunning! What a beautiful Cockatiel you are, with those colorful feathers and that sweet face with lovely orange cheeks and big dark eyes. You have the most delightful personality, too. You're your dear young person's playful little friend, even when he/she needs to eat or get homework done. You like to perch on your person's finger and be part of whatever he/she is doing. You're a very nice pet, the best! You both love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Joko, on being chosen Pet 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, with a special serving of seeds, salad, and fresh vegetables.
