Dearest Apalla, what a beautiful Bearded Dragon you are! That golden-orange color is so bright and pretty and happy, and what a sweet face you have with those lovely big brown eyes. And what a delightful personality you have, too! You are very friendly and brighten everyone's day. Everyone you meet wants to pet you, and you even comfort them as they pet you while talking with your dear person. You're a fine therapy pet in your own way! Since you are a cold-blooded creature, your dear person makes sure your environment stays warm enough for you. You and he/she love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Apalla, on being chosen Pet of the Day! We hope you and your dear person and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats.

Death thought about it.
CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.
