Terrific Teddy!
Dearest Teddy, what a terrific guy you are, indeed! You're absolutely stunning, sitting up so proudly in that great photo. Thank you for sharing it with us! Your soft-looking Tuxedo fur is gorgeous, in such a nice design, and what a sweet face you have with those white whiskers and lovely big eyes. I wish I could reach through the screen and over to Newark, CA to pet you! I can't, of course, but I know your loving and beloved Purrrson will pet you for me .
And what a delightful Purrrsonality you have! Through all your seventeen years you've been the most friendly and cuddly cat your dear Purrrson has ever had. You are a total love bug! You love everybody, and you love to be held and stroked. I would love to hold you and stroke you! When you were younger you were very adventurous, and one time you went missing for about a month. Your dear people were afraid they'd never see you again, but thanks to your microchip they got a call from the shelter where you'd wound up, and your people brought you back home. Deepest thanks to your people for having you chipped! You are a PURRRFECT model for the value of being microchipped and how it gets so many lost animals back with their families! Just like it said on your cage when you and your people first met, you are and always will be "The little kitty with the big purr." You're their number one son, so precious! You all love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Teddy, on being chosen Cat of the Day! We hope you and your dear Purrrsons and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats.
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.
