Dearest Priscilla, you are precious indeed! What an adorable young Potbellied Pig you are, only nine months old. You were a surprise gift to your dear person-to-be, and she had no idea of how to take care of you, but she rose to the challenge and did a lot of research to learn how. You're great fun for her and your family! You have a delightful personality, and you've moved right into their hearts. You're getting used to a harness now, and you're working up to learning how to walk on a leash. You're given some watermelon as you learn, and what a useful training bribe that is. You even wag your tail when you see it! You and your person and all your family members love each very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Priscilla, 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 and a special serving of watermelon!

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