Dearest Carlos, what an adorable little Fancy Mouse you are! You are so pretty, in both your orange baby fur and your bigger-boy brindle fur. And what a sweet face you have, with those long whiskers and the lovely big ears and eyes. You have the most delightful personality, too, and you make your dear person smile with your energy and antics. And you live with several sisters and a brother, too! You and they and your dear person all love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Carlos, on being chosen today's Pet of the Day! We hope you and your siblings and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats, maybe even a special serving of oats and dog cookies!

Death thought about it.
CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.
-- Terry Pratchett (1948—2015), Sourcery
