Transportation to the Cats Summer Ball

[dandysmom]

I am pleased to be responsible for arranging transport to the Ball for those cats who would like to make a dramatic/different entrance.

So far, I've had two requests for a horse and carriage, one for a goat cart and two for motor scooters. These have been booked.

Unfortunately I cannot find a silver space capsule. Perhaps The Div..... erm, the cat requesting it, would settle for a private jet? There is a nice selection available.

No one has requested a limo so far, but there is a good variety; book one if you would like it.

As the exact date and venue haven't been decided at this point, I cannot say if valet parking will be available. Further information will be posted here when received.

PICTURES AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST.

:-D

[Elaine]

A private jet would suit her just fine;)

[yola]

Myshka is getting above himself here . . . Could he please have a pair of black alpaccaswith silver harnesses and a black/silver box slung across their backs to carry him :p

[angieh]

Kizzy is wondering whether to accept her two offers of escort from Dylan and Anakin. Really, she'd like to go with both boys - in which case a slightly larger conveyance may be in order. She is wondering about a reindeer sleigh but knows it's out of season. What do you think?

Myshka had earlier requested a motor scooter, and I have booked a nice Vespa for him; will see if I can find alpacas....... :roll: (tell him not to hold his breath.....)

Dylan had requested a horse drawn carriage, which I believe will seat only two. And I thought Anakin was coming en famille (in a limo, perhaps?). However, we have ample time to make other arrangements if necessary ...:-D

One private jet booked for The Diva!

[calismum]

Alfie would love to view his goat drawn carriage! He wonders if there will be dalmatians and a footman?

[random]

Can we get a pumpkin carriage for 5 as Anakin is going with Kizzy and Dylan?

Oh no perhaps a reindeer sleigh would hold 3?

I'm afraid there is not a large selection of goat drawn conveyances available, apparently they are no longer an "In" thing. This one, unfortunately does not come with a footman or dalmatians! :( If he would prefer to make an alternative choice, let me know...:-D

[calismum]

He is really interested in a footman and dalmatians - so wonders if a horse drawn coach would be available. He would be happy to share if anyone would like to go with him

This is the carriage Leia is going in. But it too does not have footmen or damatians. Not sure at this point if Dylan wants it too. I am off to look for larger coaches, possibly a pumpkin one, but it may be the wrong time of the year for that .....

My three wonder if they might attend and whether they could arrive by broomstick? Tolly will steer, Smudge needs a shelter so her 'up do' won't be ruined and Cleo will sit on the back with eyes firmly shut

[Leesy]

Maxi and Maisy Moo would like to come if the date is convenient for them as they have never been to one of these events before and have found that it all sounds very exciting, they have sugested that they would like to arrive on a flying carpet and have said that they don`t mind if anybody wants to tag along with them as well.

[dandysmom]

Sigh! I am off now to look for flying carpets and broomsticks........ what wonderful imaginations our pusses have! This is going to be the Ball of the Century!

Here's the latest model flying carpet for Maxi and Maisy; hope they like it!

Of course they're welcome! I think this besom broom will seat three; but not sure what Smudge will do about her hairdo .......

[pookyandjo]

what mode of transport do you suggest for overseas visitors... given that it's a 23 hour flight frm Melbourne to London... of course whatever is suggested will have to be in keeping with the fact that HRH Princess Harri has to travel in a manner befitting her royal status.. George on the other hand isn't too fussy but will require sufficient snacks for the journey...

[Leesy]

Maxi and Maisy Moo have viewed the latest model in the flying carpet, and after much discussion between themselves think it is perfect for their arrival to the Cat`s Summer Ball, thank you DM.

[Phoenix]

Dylan says he's supplying the food for the journey for all the cats :-D

He says as well he's decided he's not bothered how he gets there, as long as there's plenty of food when he arrives :lol:

Well. Jo, since this Ball is being held in cyberspace where the normal rules of time, space, etc do not apply,I think HRH and George could opt for whatever mode of transportation they wanted. Leia is coming from the States in a chic white carriage. The Diva has a private jet......HRH might like that! Would George like a nice Vespa? And there is, of course ,the limo option! :-D

[cats' staff]

Thanks for the broomstick. I'm not sure waht they are called but Smudge wondered about one of the seats they have on elephants?
As she is slightly jealous of the Diva I did have to talk her out of demanding a jet plane in a shade of cerise.........

You know what they say about the female and mind-changing? I have been showing all these fantastic methods of transport to Kizzy and she is now wanting to arrive (with or without escort) by a swan-shaped boat ...... is that possible Eileen? It may of course mean diverting a nearby stream or river temporarily!

As I said to Jo, anything is possible in cyberspace. river diversion no problem. Kizzy would look very sweet in this lovely swan boat; quite pre Raphaelite!

That's purrrr-fect! Kizzy is so excited!

[dandysmom]

That's purrrr-fect! Kizzy is so excited!

Pleased to have been of service! Does this mean I can stop looking for reindeer drawn sleighs now??? :-D

[angieh]

Yes, I think so thanks Eileen. I did explain to Kizzy that reindeer have to rest in the summer! She has decided that arriving by boat is just the thing!

[dandysmom]

:-D I am still searching for a coach with footman for Alfie.........

It may be a bit much for the poor Dalmatians however, carriage dogs to a cat, albeit a super stylish gentlecat like Alfie!

Oh wow! Just what I was looking for..... was that a Google search? Alfie will be so pleased! And aren't those lovely dappled horses! :D

[calismum]

Wow - that is purrfect. Alfie is extremely impressed and says thankyou for finding that for him.

[John]

Tommy said he would require a Rolls Royce limo to take Millie..

[dandysmom]

Here you go, John! Tommy and Millie can arrive in style....

my 2 have both requested a black harley davidson (each) as their dad is a biker they like to keep with the cool dude look :)

[dandysmom]

BM, do they want vintage or the latest model? Leia is coming unescorted in her white horse drawn carriage, but would be pleased if the boys would sign her dance card at the Ball .....

Leia is coming unescorted in her white horse drawn carriage, but would be pleased if the boys would sign her dance card at the Ball .....couple of fat boy harleys will do them. and they said does leia want them to be her *outriders* and escort her they. be her minders so to speak.

[angieh]

That would be something to see!

What a gracious offer! If you don't think it will spook the horse drawing her carriage, that would be a very dramatic entrance! :-D

:smt005 PMSL !!

[MadCatLady]

Hey me & the Feline Tribe are missing out here! :shock:

OK there are 7 (soon to be 8 ) in the Tribe so in need of something suitable for them all... however under NO circumstances will SashaBella PsychoHussey be seen dead with that bald excuse for a cat Sexy-Sullivan-Funny-Wrinkles and thus I am thinking of spliting the tribe so Sasha can be escorted by Porter de Purr, BeWilbured & the newbie Quinn... that leaves Evil-Evvie, Awesom Dawson, RigbyBigBear & the Bald One... but I do feel they need equal type transport ie matching Silver Ghosts or ...? :p

[MadCatLady]

How about ..... flying unicorns.....do they seat 4 a piece???

[angieh]

Not sure I've ever heard of flying unicorns - although dandysmom might have heard of something in her extensive research into the important matters of transportation. I have of course heard of winged horses, such as Pegasus - I wonder whether he has a heard of friends?

[MadCatLady]

OK ... pegasus & brother is exceptable... so long he's not too long in the tooth & fading!!? Any photos available?

[MadCatLady]

SashaBella has pointed out she would like something with a bit more bite (I suspect so she can set it on the Bald one!) ... she suggested (in keeping with Fantasy creatures easily available for booking for such purposes...! :twisted: ) She would like a dragon... she was keen on a black dragon however after discussion we think a white/silver one would show the black fluffiness off far better! Matching silver dragons available??? :p

[dandysmom]

Per request, a winged horse! However, I suspect you will need more than two, as they cannot seat four persons. would your tribe consider instead a nice pair of Rolls limos like the one John's Tommy and Millie are coming in?

http://imgtn1.ask.com/ts?t=7251748672092485756&pid=23296&ppid=6

[dandysmom]

Sorry, don't know why the above didn't come up as a pic! Off to look for dragons now.

[dandysmom]

OK, found them a nice silver dragon ...that will make a dramatic entrance!

[MadCatLady]

Thanks DM.... SashaBella-Psycho Hussey (as the name suggests) can be slightly... ummm... how do I put this politely.... I feel Diva is too mild & yet neurotic....???

[dandysmom]

My pleasure! Erm ....... delusions of grandeur.......????? :-D

[dandysmom]

Oh by the way, I requested a vegetarian dragon for the flight, so Calismum's OH will not have to worry about the sheep and other animals during the Ball .......:-D

[MadCatLady]

Weeelllllll..... if i'm honest I probably make it worse by treating them like royality soo..... hows the matching Dragons coming... have convinced Baldie he could have a gold one & SashaBella a silver (or as she put it a platinum one!) am sorting the diamonte (i mean diamond!) tiara/collars for the girls and top hat & bow ties for the boys... anything else...
PS I have only 2 girlies - SashaBella PsychoHussey & Evil Evvie the weebobilini going and a whole 5 boy cats... all be it one is bald if anyone needs a date/dance partner!?

Lol I thought the silver dragon was going to transport them all in your crowd, but can book a gold one also if you like. :-D I don't know how many dances are planned, but Leia has a few vacancies on her dance card ...slow dances only as she is a rather portly matronly cat and does not do fast ones .... so your lads are welcome; she has no objections to baldies! :D

[MadCatLady]

Excellant! I would suggest Sullivan (the Bald) or RigbyBigBear (although he has no willie there!!?) as dancing partners as neither move as swiftly as they should... Sulli coz he's lazy & Bear coz he is just too damn cool!!! :p

Yes to the booking of 2 separate Dragons as SashaBella is adamant that she will not be seen in public with 'The Bald'!! :roll:

Plus the boys, Porter de Purr & BeWilbured as well as Sashabella are likely to want to 'go on' somewhere afterwards for further entertainment! The more sedate members of the Tribe will wish to return home for a stiff brandy & an early (ish) night! :o
