Dearest Kiwi, aren't you ever a cute little guinea pig! You have the prettiest multi-colored fur and the sweetest face with lovely big eyes. You have a delightful personality, too, and you make your dear person smile with your energy and antics. You don't really get along with piggy brother Neville, but you and he enjoy talking with each other and having wheeking contests. Sometimes Blue the bird gets into those contests, too, with his own squeaks! You and they and your dear people all love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Kiwi, on being chosen today's Pet of the Day! We hope you and Neville and Blue 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.
