Dearest Xiaolong, what a beautiful Calico girl you are! Your soft-looking fur is gorgeous, so colorful! And what a sweet face you have with those long, LOOOONG white whiskers and the pretty pink nose surrounded by orange-brown fur and those lovely big pale-green eyes! I wish I could reach through the screen and over to wherever you are here in the U.S. and pet you! 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 are very talkative, and you follow your dear Purrrson everywhere. You tell her/him when you want something more to eat or would like to go outside to chase birds. And if you do get out to chase them, I agree with my friend Randi: I hope you don't catch any! You're very good, that you come when called and you are always there when your dear Purrrson is feeling down. You and he/she love to snuggle up together, and you love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Xiaolong, on being chosen today's Cat of the Day! We hope you and your dear Purrrson 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.
