Dearest Whiskers, you are wonderful indeed, so precious and adorable! What a gorgeous Guinea Pig you are, with that beautiful, colorful coat that looks so soft, and that sweet face with those lovely big dark eyes. And what a delightful story you have to tell! You're slightly disabled, with a curved spine, but that doesn't stop you from enjoying life to its fullest. Your family-to-be adopted your dear sister Flickr, and then they saw you. it was love at first sight, so they got you, too! Since then, you've been a piggy who loves attention and cares very much for your dear people and little cousins. You bring light and love to them and Flickr. You've even gone to school with your young friends and done well there! You all love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Whiskers, on being chosen Pet of the Day! We hope you and your dear Flickr and little cousins 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.
