Dearest Whisper, you are adorable! What a precious lady you are, so pretty with that distinctive Siamese-design fur and that sweet face with those lovely big blue eyes. That is such a nice picture of you relaxing on that chair that matches your eye color and with the blue blanket behind you! I wish I could reach through the screen and over to Minnesota to pet you, and pet your doggy friend Happy, too! I can't, of course, but I know your loving and beloved Purrrson will pet you for me .
And what a delightful Purrrsonality you have! You're a very beloved member of your family, the "fur person!" You were your dear Purrrson's birthday gift fifteen years ago from her parents.. the best present ever! You are a very unusual Siamese in that you are not loudly vocal. Instead, you reach up and sweetly pet the person's face when you want some attention! You always sheathe your claws, and you never, ever scratch. Happy considers you his own cat, and you two play with each other every day. You and he and your dear Purrrents all love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Whisper, on being chosen today's Cat of the Day! We hope you and your dear Purrrents and Happy 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.
