  Adds playful pets 🦀🐱🐶 in your VS Code window

So, I scrolled through some pages of resulted issues and found this one: Add a custom message for cat. I checked out the repo itself, vscode-pets, and the project looked really fun and cool to me. This extension allows you to have little window with cute pets with which you play or just watch while coding. I don't know but it brought me so much joy and I would personally love to have something like this as a VSCode user. My task was to come up with a customized welcoming message from a cat pet. It had to be something a cat might say. To be honest, I never had a cat, so I decided to research. I found this article, 7 sounds your cat makes and what they mean, which mentioned that Dr. Sasha Gibbons believed that "Trilling is a high-pitched, chirp-like noise made by cats as a greeting to people or other cats". Perfect, exactly what I needed! I also found out that "Meow!" is a second version of hello, so I decided to combine them into brrr... Meow!. Before, it was a plain says hello 👋!. That was my change.
