Dearest Schäfchen, you are adorable, very sweet indeed! You're so pretty with that white-brown fuzzy coat and that sweet face with the lovely dark eyes. You have a delightful personality, too. You're simply sweet and have beautiful hair, and everyone can play with you. You live in a big cage with your own house and water-bottle and food-bowl. You do like to eat, don't you! You cheep very loudly when you are hungry, and your dear person feeds you. One time you ran right into a food bag because you were hungry, and you didn't come out until your family made you do so! You and they all love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Schäfchen, on being chosen Pet of the Day! We hope you and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats, maybe a special serving of powerfood, vegetables, fruits, and hay, with a lot of water, too!
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.
