Dearest Cali P. Cat, what an utterly beautiful California Calico lady you are! You are so pretty, with that fluffy, multi-colored fur that looks so very soft and that sweet face with the long white whiskers and eyebrows and those lovely big blue eyes. You are absolutely precious in both of those great photos, and thank you for sharing them with us. I wish I could reach through the screen and over to Livermore, CA to pet you! I can't, of course, but I know your loving and beloved Purrrsons will pet you for me .
And what a wonderful story you have to tell! You and your dear Purrrsons adopted each other at the local shelter. You are a very shy girl, who will suck your paw if you're nervous. It took you some two years to learn to trust your dear Purrrsons, and we thank them for giving you the time and space you needed. Now you are their constant companion. You're very gentle and love to snuggle with them and play with your toys. They would be lost without your love and friendship! You and they all love each other very much, don't you. What a delightful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Cali, on being chosen today's Cat of the Day! We hope you and your dear Purrrsons and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats.
And how good of you and your dear Purrrsons to encourage people to look at the shy ones at the shelter! Winning the trust of a shy shelter cat is worth the challenge, resulting in a Furrrever friend... and you, Cali, are a Purrrfect example!
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.
