Early arrivals start, Chez Shenks Birdie Day 2015!
Meowmie looks out the door as Cash makes a happy bark, but there is
nothing there. Then Iowna alerts to the back yard. Of course! She opens the patio door and an early guest who's 2foots parked them in a kittah hotel comes in. It's chilly and they saw the chimney puffing, so grabbed a log and dragged it to the door with them. Cash runs out and grabs a log then Daisy-chan gets another. Iowna, not to be outdone, gets a few sticks they use for kindling. She puts them down and Cash breaks them up and loads the coal hod they use for kindling. Inside, a biggish male daddy2foot takes one of the logs and adds it to the fire, then stacks the rest to the side. Then he checks the soft blankets before the fire, set there for 4foots to enjoy. All is right in the world. The biggish male daddy2foot shuffles to the fridge and breaks out 4 pieces of crispy bacon then brings it back to the 4some basking at the fireplace. He grins as he gets to pet them all for a moment. Then Daddy2foot wanders off with Meowmie as mysterious things happen in the kitchen. -- |

Loves, Mosey, PookyKat, Sqweex, Pipps n Brutus =all happy, hungry Cats Daddy2foot grins and breaks out more cushions while Meowmie sets out little tables for 2 (or 4 if really friendly). Bigger 2foots and bigger doggies take over the settings around the Kotatsu table brought from Japan (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kotatsu) The smaller tables can make seats for the smaller 4foots if they wish to sit at the low table. As the food cooks, little nibbles keep coming out. Cash greets half the clowder on one side while Iowa greets the other half as they stream into the warm room and settle by the fireplace. After warming up nicely, they look about and: Mosey and Ranger snag a longer low table that makes a fine seat for both and stake a spot at the Kotatsu. PookyKat snags a little table over and sits at the corner next to Cash while Pips n Brutus snag opposite sides so they can talk across the table. Sqweex brings over 2 low tables and invites Iowna to sit with them. The honored ends of the table will hold the 2foots with Cash sharing with Meowmie and next to PookyKat. Daisy-chan will settle on Daddy-2foots lap and select from his plate. It's not quite yet time to serve, so various 4foots bring in some more logs and fill the holder while Iowna shows Squeex how to snag branches for kindling then where the kindling hod is. It takes them a couple of trips, but they bring in enough for all night. As they settle waiting for dinner, a 2foot named Charlotte opens the oven and uses some of the duck fat to baste the turkey. Aroma envelops the room.... Ranger and Pipps whisper to one another that it's really hard to wait, forgetting how good Iowna's hearing is. She grins and decides a rumor table might be fun so whispers to Squeex to pass it on that Ranger is starvilating. Squeex passes to Brutus that poor Ranger is starving then adds she hopes all is well at home. The rumor travels with various folks embelishing it for fun until it hits Cash. Cash looks at Ranger and asks right across the table if he's dying? I mean, he looks ok? Everyone cracks up and lets Cash in on the joke. He grins and then his tummy rumbles in perfect timing with Ranger's tummy. They watch then as a duck and a turkey are pulled out of the oven to rest... |

A kittah tries to snag some ducki to her mouth and gets a gentle snap near her paw from Iowna who then not too quietly reminds all, they have to say grace first. Regaining her composure Iowna waits for the 2 foots to put all the food out in big bowls and platters. Daisy-chan climbs in Daddy2foots lap and rises to the table. Bowing her head she gives the prayer. "Dear Bast and Sirus, and the many for the 2foots who love us, we thanks you furr this feast and our friends who join us tonight in person or in spirit. Wez purr or yip or show our joy in whatever manner works but wez know you sees us and loves us. Thank you." A moment of silence reigns over heads bowed over paws and hands, then they look up and Daddy2foot and Meowmie starts handing platters and bowls about. Doggies tails are wagging and Iowna makes a special point of getting a really good bit of ducki for her friend who didnt know to wait fur just a moment of grace. Shortly, all you can hear is tails wagging and a lot of chewing. A waift of Belgin Endive catches Iowna's sniffer and she tries to reach it. Her paws aren't long enough but Cash snags one with a bit of frozen bacon and passes it to her. *crunch!* On the way back to his seat, his nose catches bloobery pie! He can't help it. He snags a big slice and takes turns between it and a turkey wing. He laughs after a glance at Mosey, who has chipmonk cheeks and looks to be trying to fit in more Turki or Ducki... -- |

Sitting back, Kittahs, 2foots and others start to snore. Slowly a few move to the piles of cushions in front of the fireplace and make a many legged pile that sometimes woofs and sometimes purrs. Meowmie naps on the sofa woken only once, as Mosey climbs up on her tummy next to Daisy-chan, for a few rubs then subsumes to a nap attack... -- |
