Dearest Lovina, what an utterly adorable Syrian hamster you are! You are so pretty with that soft-looking colorful fur and that sweet face with the little pink nose and the dark eyes. And what a delightful story you have to tell! You were a surprise gift for your dear person, and you and she/he have become the best of friends. You are shy but playful, and you enjoy running on your wheel and finding other ways to become physically stronger. You love running around in the bathtub and eating Yogi drop treats and being petted by your dear person when you hold still long enough. You and he/she love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Lovina, on being chosen today's 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, maybe a special serving of Yogi treats!

Death thought about it.
CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.
