Five Batson Cats step out of the teleporter and step up to wait in line to
sign the guestbook.
Mattie Marie stands in front of the line in her shimmering gold toga and her
gold leafed head piece adorning her Torbie head.
Simon Peter is next in his pure white toga with green silk embroidered on
the hem (to match his green eyes) and to compliment his lovely, long orange
furrs.
The brofurr cats, Max Spunkmeyer and Bobby Boo are next in matching sky blue
togas (to compliment their velvety black furrs) with fresh catnip wreaths
adorning their heads.
And lastly the lovely Mocha Dianne is resplendent in her stunning white toga
with cobalt blue threads embroidered throughout to make thousands of
intricate designs most of which are cats of course. On her head she wears a
lovely tiara of diamonds and sapphires... to match her lovely blue Siamese
eyes.

They've come to honor their friends Junior House of Koster and Pepsi House
of Newfield and all the other kitties who have passed on this last year.
Far, far too many names on the list. What a wonderful thing it would be if
there were no names to be called next year, only a party planned just to
celebrate lives begun or lives spared... but that will never be....
With sad hearts and tears, they sign the guest book and take their seats
with all the other's who have come to pay their respects....

[Ralph appears with Oz and VooDoo carrying a study but elegant table,
followed by Alice with a folded cloth of shimmering rainbow hues and
Kissa with the guest book and a plumed pen. After the table is arranged
to the lady cats' satisfaction, Ralph and Kissa stand for a moment,
tails entwined, and think of his sisfur Laura and her brofur Vinnie,
wedwinks reunited at the Bridj, who presided over the table for so many
years. They think, too, of all their family and friends at the Bridj and
wonder if they are celebrating as well.]

[Ralph takes the pen and signs boldly for his clowder before passing the
pen to his wedwink Kissa]

Ralph de Ralf, head of the clowder of the House of David, with Fred T.
Spawn, Clyde A. Gump, Eduoard J. VanTayle, Alice Ann Madre, and Jane Grey.
