Dearest Cupid, what a beautiful Shetland Pony you are! You're absolutely gorgeous with that sleek, glossy brown and that sweet face with the long blond mane and those lovely big dark eyes and what looks like a big smile (and probably is!). And what an amazing, inspiring, heartwarming story you have to tell! After a long battle with hoof problems, your people were about to put you down. But your dear special friend wouldn't give up without trying more. She took you to a special clinic, where they diagnosed the problem: the internal hoof was damaged from an infection in 2012. After months of therapy and endless supplies of love, you were a healthy horse again! You are a fine example of how never giving up, hope, and a sprinkle of miracle dust does pay off! As your person says, "This little man has battled bravely and won!" Now you're 13 years old, and you and your person look forward to many more years together. You love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Cupid, 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.
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.
