Dearest Sleepy, you are so very sweet, indeed! What a beautiful Dwarf Rabbit you are with that brown fur that looks so soft, and that sweet face with those cute lop ears and lovely big dark eyes. And what a nice story you have to tell! You live with your family in a big hutch in the garden, and you are your dear person's favorite. You joined your human family when your person was just a baby, so you are like his/her sister. He/she has grown up knowing you! You have the most delightful personality. You run fast, and you're very nice and friendly. Sometimes you like to be petted; other times you just want to keep your fur smooth. You and your person love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Sleepy, 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, with a special serving of carrots and water and fresh greens.

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