I just kissed her ears and her forehead and her pink pink nose and told her how much I loved her , and she purred the entire way through . It wasn't the rattling purr of a cat in distress , but the same sweet , quiet purr she always had . Her eyes were huge and glassy from the sedation , but she knew it was me . 
Question: Why did I kiss her ears ?
Because I feel affection for her .
