Dearest Percy, you are gorgeous indeed! What an utterly adorable Lovebird you are, so pretty with those pastel feathers and the sweet face with those lovely big dark eyes (complete with the little peach-colored dot above your right eye and golden beak. You have the most delightful personality, too. You love to be on peoples' shoulders, chirping loudly, as they walk around! Your dear person saw you at a bird fair, wasn't planning to get a bird, but one look at you and he/she couldn't resist and is so glad you are Home together! You love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Percy, 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.
