Dear Smokey, what a beautiful shorthair girl you are. Your plush coat looks so soft, and your face, with those beautiful eyes, is adorable.
17 years ago, your mom rescued you when you were being attacked. Ever since, you have been your mom's constant companion. You comfort her when she's sad, you greet her coming home from work, and you snuggle with her.
I'm sure you are getting even more spoiled today, as you are world famous now!
Smokey, you are a great friend, and I wish you and your family a great day full of celebration, and many more happy and healthy years together.
