Dearest Buddy, a.k.a. Budderbutt, Vicious Buddilicious, and Mr. Buddles, what a gorgeous guy you are! You are so pretty with that soft-looking fur in such an interesting color scheme, white with orange and brown tabby patches. And what a sweet face you have, with that mostly-pink nose and the long white eyebrows and whiskers and those lovely big green eyes. Thank you for sharing all those great photos with us! I wish I could reach through the screen and over to Buffalo to pet you, and pet your "sister" Pearl, too! I can't, of course, but I know your loving and beloved Purrrson will pet you both for me .
And what a delightful story you have to tell! You and your dear Purrrson met at a local rescue, and we thank him/her for choosing rescue. You were a tiny baby and chose her/him by climbing onto her shoulder, then settling down and purring. You are a happy, busy boy! Your dear Purrrson takes you outside on a leash, and you enjoy chasing squirrels, watching birds, and stalking rabbits, as well as people attention especially from your senior apartment-complex neighbors. You and he/she have traveled to Florida, where you've had fun watching ducks and native birds, looking for little lizards, and even climbing up palm trees! You love playing with your laser beam and running through tunnels and chasing Pearl. You are also a big snuggler, and you and your dear Purrrson and Pearl all love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Buddy, on being chosen today's Cat of the Day! We hope you and your dear Purrrson and Pearl and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats.
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.
