Dearest Stella, what an absolutely gorgeous young Bengal lady you are! You are adorable in those great photos, and thank you for sharing them with us! Your fur is so pretty and looks so soft, and what a sweet face you have with those long white whiskers and the lovely big pale-green eyes. I wish I could reach through the screen to Charlotte, NC to pet you and rub your tummy! I can't, of course, but I know your loving and beloved Purrrents will pet you and rub your tummy for me .
And what a delightful Purrrsonality you have! You came to your family to help comfort them in their grief at losing their elderly cat, Cathy, and elderly chocolate lab, Bosco. You act just like Bosco, and most likely Bosco Angel and Cathy Angel had hands, or paws, in bringing you together! You are very intelligent, understanding what your dear Purrrents say. You are full of energy and amaze and amuse them with all your antics, jumping great heights, exploring everywhere and everything. When Mom comes home from work, you want Dad to carry you to the door to greet her. Recently Dad screened in the back deck to make you your very own play pen! You and your dear Purrrents love each other very much, don't you all. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Stella, on being chosen today's Cat of the Day! We hope you and your dear Purrrents and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats. We know Bosco Angel and Cathy Angel and all the Angels are rejoicing with you at the Rainbow Bridge!
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.
