Dearest Michelle, what a beautiful lady you are, an absolutely stunning German Riding Horse! That sleek brown and orange coat is so pretty, and you have the sweetest face with those lovely big dark eyes and that white kite on your forehead with its tail floating down toward your nose. You have such a delightful personality, too! You are the best horse ever to your dear neighbor/friend, who loves to ride you because you are so still, never bucking or rearing or trying to get her/him off. You are patient and kind with her/him even when she makes a mistake. You're teaching her to be a better rider! She says you're not only very pretty, you're a great horse, good teacher, and a dear friend. You love each other very much, don't you! What wonderful love-filled times you share!
Congratulations, darling Michelle, on being chosen Pet of the Day! We hope you and your dear friend 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.
