    Dearest little Minou, aren't you just an adorable Ragdoll baby! You are so gorgeous, with your fluffy Ragdoll fur and coloring and your beautiful blue eyes looking out at the world with such joy in life. The photos are wonderful, especially the extreme closeup and the one of you licking your chops.

    You sound like such delightful fun to live with, playing with your doggie pal, running and leaping around and climbing up legs, snuggling with your Purrrson! We are glad your ringworm was cleared up and you are able to get around okay in spite of your wobbly legs. You are a little love bug, and you live in a wonderful home full of love.

    To Minou's Purrrson: her wobbly legs could be a symptom of a neurological disorder called Cerebellar Hypoplasia, in which the part of the brain that controls balance and coordination did not fully develop before birth. You might ask your vet about this or see another vet for a second opinion. This condition never gets better, but it never gets worse either, and cats (dogs, too) born with it adapt more to it over time and can live long and healthy lives just like any other cat or dog. They just need to live in a controlled environment: for example, indoor only, no stairs to fall down, ledges or windowsills to fall from, don't declaw. I have two cats with this condition myself, and they are delightful companions to me and the other cats. Best wishes to you and Minou!

    Congratulations, darling little Minou, on being selected today's Cat of the Day! We hope that you and your doggie pal and your Purrrson are all enjoying a fine day of celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite treats and games.

    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.
