Adorable Little Christian!
Dearest Beauchat Christian, what an utterly adorable little fellow you are! You're absolutely precious, a tiny bundle of fluffy, fuzzy grey fur. You have the sweetest face, with your darker-grey nose and your lovely big kitteny-blue eyes and just the tip of your pink tongue showing from your mouth. You're so tiny in that great photo, only six weeks old, and thank you for sharing it with us. Now you're a bigger boy, eight weeks old, two whole months! You're a young Persian man, and I'm sure your fur is already starting to get longer and thicker. I wish I could reach through the screen and down to Rio to pet you gently! I can't, of course, but I know your loving and beloved person will pet you for me .
And what a delightful personality you already have at this young age! You're full of energy and make your dear person smile with your antics. He/she says you're either moving too quickly to be more than a blur, or you're sound asleep with eyes shut tight. You love to run and run, doing the Kitten 500 around the house in seconds flat, pouncing on a toy, carrying that around, and then collapsing exhausted. You're always hungry, but you don't need to beg for your food. You just magically appear when a can is opened! (I have two cats just like that!) Your dear person says you have "..so much character for someone so small." What fun it will be for you both as you grow into that magnificent Persian man you are! You're your person's favorite kitten, and you love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Christian, on being chosen Cat 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 and perhaps another round of the Kitten 500!
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.
