Dearest Bonnie, what a beautiful Bat-eared Fox you are! I've never seen one before, and what a stunning introduction you are. I was horrified to read of the tragic start to your life. I'm so very glad and grateful that your dear people were able to save you and your brother Clyde. He went back to the wild and now has a wife and two children. You've stayed with your rescuers and have become a pet. You've won the hearts of your people and your place at the hearth.
They have an important message for us all: Please, if you are reading this, know that wild animals should always stay wild, it benefits their environment and all of us who inhabit this earth. Never take a baby animal from its mother to be a pet. You will both regret it in time.
Bonnie, you are a very rare exception to this rule! You and your people all love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Bonnie, on being chosen today's Pet of the Day! We hope you and your dear people 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.

Thankfully your hero rescuers at the rehabilitation center were able to save you and brother Clyde, and for that we are forever grateful! And while Clyde may have chosen a path different from yours, taking a wife and raising a family of his own, it's clear you too are truly living the good life as a cherished pet, having forged such a special bond with your rescuers, forever safe and loved! But as your human family has said, wild animals should never be taken from the wild to be made pets, and hopefully those reading here today will heed those wise words! How very lucky all at the rehabilitation center are, having a furry friend as beautiful, as sweet and as special as you, Bonnie! You're a gem, a true survivor, and so very deserving of day in the spotlight!!!
