The yacht gets underway
MH hears tha arrifal of the red jeep thingy... he comes bounding up from
their rooms and runs as hard as he can to be there when missy comes out, he takes her paw with one of his, the case with his other paw, and says: I iz beree glad ursef iz here, owrz rumz iz wunnerful, letz put urown caze away and den gets uses a snak, MH "Will in New Haven" wrote in message ...

Da Crooze beginz!
"Thanks Ok Trudi, mai eyesight isn't the best either at my age! Mai nose is
sharp as ever though! I can see a pretty lady and scent Chatnel Number 5! I luv that one. One of the best there is." says Aunti Mabel. Trudi peers across the room. 'Oh, that's Pitô.ônya. Iz don't think you met at the last party? Lets wander over and pae our respects!" Trudi takes Aunti Mabel over and cherrily says 'Hai Pitô.ônya! This is Aunti Mabel, a very sweet HC friend of Daisy-chan and Cash-pup HC. Did you know she complimented your choice of purrfume from clear across the room? Was she right that it's Chatnel number 5? It smells lovely dear!" Pitô.ônya looks suprised but pleased and asks 'Oh my! I've never had one this fine. When did you get to scent it?' 'Ah my dear young kittah, many years ago a hopeful fellow gave me some for valentines day. I liked it so much we had 6 puppies!' says Aunti Mabel with a slightly wicked happy twinkle to her eyes. About to say something else, they are interupted with a crash. Looking over, Cash-pup was a little too big for the barstool and has fallen off it. Looking bashful, Daisy-chan decides to have a little fun. 'Can't handle your nip eh Cash?' The bar erupts in laughter along with Cash as he dusts himself off and bows to Daisy-chan. 'Sorry my lady, I never could keep up with you' he says with a saucy wagtail. A grinning catender quitely brings a more substantial stool they keep incase any larger kittahs like leopards or snow tiggers should need one. Chuckling, Pitô.ônya turns back to Aunti Mabel and Trudi and says 'Don't tell me. He's a big luffable goof rite?' With a whimsical grin, Aunti Mabel nods. 'Fur true, that sums him up'. Trudi grins and nods agreement then they turn to introduce Aunti Mabel to Sundance who's looking very spiffy in his tuxedo! "Trudi" wrote in message i izunt sure who iz eatin sucheez or who da mancat iz, i duzint hafe gud eyesite in diz here sun, i seemsta not be able ta se beree gud in da datime anyeemore, butted hopefully dey will come clozer anna speak so i can introduze ursef, almozt efuricat here iz knowin mozt ofur catz, Trudi "cshenk" wrote in message ... Trudi leaves the gordon kittees state room and goes to find the smell iof fishees and shrimps origination... as she arrivez she sees a familar looking pooch person arriving also... she goes to her new frund and sayz Hi maybelle, I iz glad ursef camed wiffa daisy anna cash, I wuzint sure ifin diz kruze wuld be sumfin ursefz mite like, but i sure iz glad ursef iz here, how bowt we gets sum fudz anna haz sumfinta drink in dat sunny deck purt ofur der, dat sun lukz reallee infitin... they wantder to the table anna luk fur sum doggie kindsa fudz... Ohh says Aunti Mabel 'lots of gudies here! I'll take a non-nip drink please.' Laughter in her eyes she looks to a waiter and tries ASL. He cocks his head the the sid and nudges another, who answers in ASL 'What will it be my lady?'. a wate kitty appreas and guides then to the duck broth, duck bits, anna special fortified protien meat balls with extra bone meal balls. Aunti choses duck broth with meatballs and bone then looks to see: as maybell chooses trudi sees some cheese with nip bits, cottage chees and a bowl of cream, the porter/wate kitty carries their choices to a deck chair and sets everything down for them. 'Ah so nice Trudi! Hehehe I see Cash and Daisy-chan are having fun at the bar! Who's that they are having sushi with? She's rather pretty!' says Aunti Mabel Rudi: man does this look gud, I haz been working mines sef to a frazzel, der wuz lotsa stuffzsta du settin up aktifiteez, but now alla dat iz done so iz gonna relaz diz afurnoon, what iz yourown pwanz, I see no kitty haz been upsted by ur doggieness? 'Naw Rudi. At my venerable age, kittahs know I'z a friend. Now don't ya get worried iffin Daisy-chan starts chasing Cash-pup. It's how she keeps trim anna at 11lbs, she's fast enough to chase his 56 lbs around fur exercise.' says Aunti Mabel with a twinkle in her eyes. Delicately sampling some duck broth, she grants this is as good as at Chez Shenk's and they spend some happy time passing recipes. Then some time later as ladies chat goes... "Ohh, who's that pretty mancat over there? The one looking at the nip with the wunnerful tigger tricolor?' says Aunti Mabel. "cshenk" wrote in message ... Aunti Mabel yawns then and says 'Time for my nap kids, you both go out anna play and I'll be along later'. Her eyes widen as she sees the doggie ramp to the bed is just right for her old hips and then settles in with a happy sigh into the king sized memory foam bed. Aunti Mabel wakens to a general soft music drifting in the porthole and a soft breeze redolant of the sea and it's riches. With a long happy stretch and wag of tail, she neatly takes care of a few personal needs then goes to the dresser to select something nice but not too ostentatious for an afternoon on the deck. She muses that the diamonds might make some of the kittahs feel bad so selects instead a simple tigerstone necklace that matches her eyes of buttery-brown. It is afterall, an afternoon affair as of yet. She notes with a grin, Daisy-chan's favored turquoise earrings and necklace are missing. So is Cash's favorite turquoise collar with the subdued delicate but manly spangles. heheh she wuffs. He's a big goof but we luv him and he sure does like to try to dress up and match that little Daisy-chan lady! Thinking. Aunti Mabel changes to wear her turquiose necklace and adds her sweater that is the same color but shot lightly with silver threads. Surveying in mirror she notes it nicely hides that she's still a bit too thin yet leaves a silky overall pleasing look. Slightly dressier than the others as they arrived, but should carry well to the first evening early cocktail hour. Sauntering off, she goes to join the fun. She recalls chatting a lot with Trudi last time and wonders of Orion will be there? Following her nose which is as sharp as ever, she finds the party is starting. She steps gently down the stairs hoping to not intrude on the fun but knowing she looks pretty nice, it's a relatively grand entrance for a grand Dame HC..... Daisy-chan (who's been chatting with Booker) sees along with Cash (who's been chatting with Snowflake) and give a nice purr-low wuff as she delicately enters wondering what to expect.... |

The yacht gets underway
trudi rushes up to the gordons and peers carefully at the fishees... she is
interested in how everyone is doing but then remembering her manners.

The tenders return to the Purrbearer, the boarding ramp is raised, and the "at anchor" signal flag is struck. The head porter make sure the teleporter deck is ready for action and that the staff is on hand to welcome arriving guests. The yacht's loud horn echoes across the water as the anchor chain is drawn aboard, and the water at the stern starts to churn as the yacht gets underway. As the yacht turns into the center channel of the Hudson River the bridge crew gather on the port bridge wing and thumb their noses in unison as the yacht passes the West 72nd Street Dog Run, then return to their bridge stations. The radar operator calls out "port turn to 190 in 10 seconds, sir". Capt LeGrand calls out "Aye, radar. Helm, 190". The yacht motors slowly and majestically towards the ocean. The cats who have already boarded line the rails on both sides, admiring the views of Manhattan passing to the ship's left and New Jersey to the ship's right. As they reach the southern end of Manhattan Island the yacht's executive officer activates the intercom: "This is executive officer Fletcher. On behalf of myself, Captain LeGrand, and the entire crew of the Motor Vessel Purrbearer, I would like to welcome all of our guests aboard. This vessel, commissioned by the late Cleopatra Silvercat, is dedicated to the service of the worldwide feline community. If any of you have any needs or requests while we are underway please communicate your needs to any crew member. We are now nearing the southern end of Manhattan Island, and will shortly reach the confluence of the Hudson River and the East River. We will then be passing Ellis Island, where many of your ancestor cats were welcomed to Catmerica. Shortly after we pass Ellis Island, Liberty Island and the Statue of Liberty will come in to view. A few minutes later we will sail past the Teardrop Memorial in Bayonne, Mew Jersey, then about half an hour later we will cross under the Verrazano Narrows Bridge and into the ocean. Again, if there is anything at all we can do to make your voyage with us more comfortable you have but to ask. If any cat experiences any discomfort from the motion of the vessel, you might find the second deck to be to your liking, as it is gyroscopically stabilized and does not move with the waves. Thank you for your attention." Three Gordon Kittiez step from the transporter - the motion of the ship takes them unawares and Harry steadies Sukie. Jack is carrying a very large clam shell which contains the fancy goldfish...."Umhh.......purrlease,purrlease cood sumwun hewp me wiff dese fishies? Purrlease??" He sits down suddenly on a chair... "Phew! Mees pooped!" Rag the goldfish swims up to the top...."Ar yu hokay Jack?Wees soso sorry we ar so heffy!" Jack smiles and waves at Rag. He takes a silk hankie and pats his brow. Sukie brings around her long,long tail and peeps over it." Oh Harry, dare are soso menny stwangers heer! Don be silly Sukie,dees ar de fwends we haff on RPCC!

[A brace of hefty porter-cats hurry to Jack's side and take the load of the clamshell off his paws.] We will be glad to deliver the fishies to their stateroom, sir. Cash-pup who has excellent hearing, tells the catender, if they need help to let him know. He'd be happy to assist and has a 70 gallon tank at Chez Shenk's that he helps tend. The catender takes a glance at the 56 lb HC they will all appreciate his help if he does not mind but they'd never dream of asking a guest to work! Cash laughs and explains it's just a little weight lifting for him and he's trying to lose weight. Cash quietly whispers to Daisy-chan who smiles with a nod and he goes off for 5 mins. His friends at the bar assume a little side trip to the facilities. Cash finds 2 porters who are burly and would have done the job fine alone but it was a long way and they are having to stop to rest at the ladders. He carefully lifts the clamshell in a mouth trained to carry live baby birds with no harm, and whisks our 2 fish friends to comfort, leaving as the ports get them all settled in their rather nice tank. Cash resumes his bigger stool at the bar, with none the wiser and resumes looking like the big happy friendly goof he is. Only Daisy-chan and Aunti Mabel know under the goof, is a true gentle-pup. |

The yacht gets underway
[As the yacht leaves Liberty Island astern a small helicopter can be see
in the distance. Those cats who happen to notice the growing speck are surprised to see it pass between Lady Liberty's upraised arm and her head, leaving only inches between the statue and the rotor blades. The chopper then darts under the Verrazano Narrows bridge, then loop back to the yacht. Crew members hurriedly guide Missy's Jeep onto an aircraft elevator as the copter touches down. The doors open and two orange kitties alight, one somewhat wobbly and looking a tiny bit queezy.] Whee! That's always fun. I love sightseeing national monuments up close. Wasn't that pretty, OT?
