Dearest Minni, what a gorgeous Peach-faced Lovebird you are! You're absolutely stunning with those orange and green and white feathers, and that sweet face with the golden-orange beak and lovely big dark eyes. Thank you for sharing that great photo with us! It shows off so well not just your beautiful coloring but also your delightful personality.
You're your dear young person's favorite pet and friend. She says "I love this cool bird!!!" You love to sleep on the little nest that she made for you. You get lonely when she's at school, so she got you a dear boy bird partner. He's a really nice guy, and you both get along well. You love kids, and you love to fly around the house. You do some cool and strange tricks, such as crawling into your friend's shirt and coming out of the sleeve! You say yes and no by moving your head. You love to chew on anything that's paper and hard, and you look around on the floor for things to chew on. You all love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Minni, on being chosen Pet of the Day! We hope you and your dear young human friend and boy bird friend and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats and maybe some special new paper and hard things to chew on!
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.
