Francesca see Midnight, Fred, and Sarge each nibbling on a
plate of goodies, but trying to hide at the same time. She
walks over and introduces herself.

"Hi, guys. I know who you are - I've heard Meowmie and Paw
talking about you. You're the kitties who live in the garage,
aren't you?"

Midnight: "Um, yes, we are. We don't usually get to talk to
inside kitties. They usually just hiss at us."

Frannie: "Well, this is the Community. We like all creatures
here. As you can see we've got a couple raccoons in the party,
and those squirrels over here, and that really big kitty, Big
Mama, is a black panther. We all do our best to get along. I've
been trying to find some of the local possums to invite them,
but they seem to be doing a really good job of hiding."

Fred: "Yeah, dey do dat. We have a lot of decent hoomins livin
around here, but some of the ones that used to live in dis house
were purrty nasty people. Da possums gotted scared off and now
only come around in da night time."

Sarge: "Well, I kinda know dem, a liddle bit. I talk to dem some
times. If you want I'z could tell dem dat they is welcome to
come around. DO you fink dere might be food stuff dey could eat
somewhere close by dis house?"

Frannie: "Me an Ranger an Sammy can whisper in da hoomin's ears
while dey is asleep, and get dem to put possum feeders in da
back yard. See dat great big old doggie over there, eating the
kitty kibble? Dat's Starr da Dogg. Her is big and her barks a
lot, but her is akchooly nice to aminuls. Her only barks to
play wif her buddy, Duke, next door. Her would like to meet
some possums, and if any possum gets scared, all him would have
to do is hiss. Starr da Dogg would then back off right away.
Same fur you kitties, too. You are all welcome to come in da
back yard any time. Paw is gonna install a critter door in the
garage back door, just fur garage kitties and anyone or anyfing
else dat needs shelter or foods. So please pass da word!"

Sarge: "Fangu, Miz Francesca".

Francesca then takes Sarge's paw and pulls him on the dance
floor.

Iowna, without a dance purrtner, saunters up to Fred and with a
grin, herds him to the dance floor. He snickers and goes along
with it.

She arranges for the next song to be:

Iowna grins and thanks Fred for being a good sport.

A new song grows in her heart. It is close to her soul. Seems, she
is failing. She is very old for a doggie. She knows few get to be
16 and she cherishes every moment of her sweet 16 party held last
year.

(Carol note, she is scheduled for an end of life consult. The
arthritis has her back legs taking the fun out of life. We are
trying a new pain med but she is resistant on eating it).

Carol,

Have you tried CBD oil on her? Maybe she will take it. Or, how about
getting a pain med compounded in a topical, maybe rubbed into her
ears? Purrs from my gang of kitties! Mishi

Thank you Mishi, but she is well past any of that. She no longer has
relief from Tramadol.
