It was just the spay today. But because she was so grofggy from the
anasthetic, she walked on her STUMP, which stated bleeding as a
result. She has protruding bone in her rear right leg, not meant to be
walked on. I can hardly wait until her leg operation. I hope it's less
than 2 weeks away.

She then lets out a meow of surprise and leaps to the side. Just as she
leaps, a bright yellow freight tug roars out of the teleporter and
careens around the yard. It is followed by a bright green tug which also
dashes at high speed around the yard. Both tugs are pulling long serving
carts and warming carts.

Both tugs take turns chasing each other around the yard. As the yellow
tug, driven by an orange tabby with white feet, white chest, and white
nose barely misses running into the big tree, Amelia (clinging to a low
branch) shouts "Sammy, stop playing around! You'll spill the food!". The
green tug, driven by a grey boycat, passes directly under Amelia. She
times it's approach and at just the right moment she lets go of the
branch and lands right behind Ranger. She starts boxing his ears. He
meows in protest, then slams on the brakes. The green tug screeches to a
halt, then the green tug pulls up beside it. ]

Sammy: You didn't need to do dat, we would have stopped in a few
minutes. It's fun drifing these fings!

Amelia: We don't have a few minutes! Our guests will be arriving any
time. You still need to set up the tables and start setting out the food.

[ Sammy and Ranger climb off the tugs and set up the serving tables,
then begin setting out food and drinks. As they work outside Harri works
inside, removing a basement window and erecting a ramp to allow kitties
to pass freely between the basement and the back yard. As they are
getting close to finished, Tabitha and Mosey teleport in. All of the
kitties greet each other with nose touches and check rubs. ]

Harri: Ok, everybody, it's time! Ourz guests will be arrifin any time
now. As soon as efurryone is here wez can all do a group purr fur
Cleocatra, and fur Chianti, and fur all da offur kittiez who needs
purrs. OT, howz about you turn on da CD player so wez can haf some
moosic?

I just got Chianti back from her spaying and she apparently, being
unsteady after the anasthetic, walked on her stump on a hardwood
floor. She now has a bleeding leg-stump but NOT so bad as to require
another TED visit. (This is not my decision.) I put her in a huge
soft towel-lined carrier and I'll wake up every 2 hours to monitor
her. Purrs please. Continue the purrs.

Purrs and love for Cleo!

Our Paw just spoke to the TED. He stole some of Cleo's blood to test,
and
found that her liver and kidneys are working fine. Since they are, he
gave her the anesthetic and cleaned her teeth. He didn't find any
teeth
that needed to be pulled, they just all needed to be cleaned.

She is now mostly conscious, just really groggy and sleepy. We still
have
to worry that she is ok through the night, but she gets to come home
tomorrow after 9:00 AM.

Since we are all gathered together anyway, let's all purr togeffur for
Chianti's leg to be better, fur her to heal up from getting
fixed-what-aint-broke, an fur her hoomin to get some sleep. An fur her
operation to go well.

[OT puts on the meditation music CD. Kitties drag comfortable pillows
into a circle, then settle in for a purring circle. The rythmic,
powerful purrs set the leaves of the tree vibrating. A cloud of light
forms over the circle of purring kitties, rising in to the sky carrying
their hopes and prayers and love for Chianti and Cleo to the heavens.]

Hello, everykitty. I'm finally home. My mouth is a little sore and I'm a
little tired, but I'm otherwise healthy. Thank you all fur sending me
your purrs - I felt them and they helped a lot.

Harri, would you be so kind as to bring me a bowl of that lovely chicken
soup I smell?

I have been purring for Chianti since I first heard about her situation.
I will be looking forward to a chance to join with all of you purring for
her again.
