Our Dear Heir has been very busy since her return home. She has managed to find two guineau pigs to make up her hologram contraption assembly line. They finished their training today and will begin assembling them on Monday. She expects to have one finished by Friday next week.
For Halloween, what better than travelling out to the barn from my house? Everyone can meet on Wednesday afternoon, try the contraption tunnel if they wish, or a regular tunnel if they don't, and we'll scare the dickens out of a few mice and voles......

Another picture
Since my last picture was received so graciously, I have decided to post another of my favorites:
Well, the PM did a great job with this! My Royal Apologies and I hope you enjoy it anyway.
Swoosh! Wee!
from the Princess' Diary:
Well, I can hardly believe it! After multiple tests by the Quartermaster, General Boopsie, SAS Ringo and volunteer kitties from the courtyard, I have finally travelled via tunnel with hologram contraption!
It's really quite exhilarating. I could do it every day that royal duties don't keep me at home.
First, I made a short hop to visit the Queen Bea (emeritus). She was surprised to see me! She is such a timid soul, I couldn't convince her the tunnel wouldn't eat her and that she would reassemble appropriately. She also had a hard time believe the hologram left behind really could fool her Daddah. But we had a nice reunion anyway.
Next, the Royal Court and I went to see the cranes, herons and egrets. The PM and Ringer were not kidding--those things are huge! They stand 4 to five feet tall. If I swam, I would have been afraid they would catch me for lunch! We also picnicked on Bald Bluff, which allows for good security. It is amazing how fresh air can enhance your appetite.
The cranes have most graciously accepted Our offer of hunting rights within the Realm. However, they do note there are not many places for them to take off and land in the Realm due to the congestion provided by humans and vile automobiles. Therefore, they will reserve the rights for emergency use only. After seeing how much room they need for takeoff, it is understandable.
Coco the Adorable has returned to her regency and has stated she will start an assembly line to make contraptions so that any interested parties may acquire one.

The New Invention; a New Day for Catdom!
It's been very exciting around here; Princess Coco has come up with her invention and Quartermaster Scruffy bravely volunteered to test it. He made 5 trips with it to assorted locations. In each case, a wonderfully lifelike holagram was left. It even moved some!
Quartermaster Scruffy states there is no sensation from the hologram and likens the business to having your picture or video taken while being transported.
Based on that, General Boopsie Bear also took a short trip through the tunnel. He agrees that this contraption offers little, if any unpleasantness to the traveller.
Hmmm.....where do we go from here?

Princess Coco the Most Adorable, Scientist
Yes, we have had word from our adorable Princess and Heir, Coco. She is, as always, full of exciting news for the Realm and its allies.
Most recently, she is adding the moniker 'scientist' to the list, which already includes Heir to the Throne and Chief Petticoat Officer of the USS Extra Helping.
She notes that she had been contemplating the difficulty some kitties have in escaping the overprotective clutches of their humans and how that can interfere with our many important plans. To circumvent same humans, she has adapted the tunnel travel mechanism so that it leaves an opaque, holographic image of the travelling kitty behind for the human's comfort. She has beta tested it on mice, voles and sparrows to date with 100% effectiveness.
Think of the implications! More frequent trips on the Extra Helpings! Higher attendance at Realm social events! Calmer human attendants! Who will be the first to give it a try?

Who? Moi?
Everyone who knows me knows I am a thoroughly American-Jewish Princess, right?
Mommeh was so funny this morning before she woke up! She thought I was saying 'Moi! Moi!' as if I were a French kitty and wanted attention! I did want attention, but I was not speaking human French....

Recent Diplomatic Sorties
As has been announced previously, the PM and SAS Ringo have been making many junkets into the countryside and have made contact with many different species of animals and birds, including deer, cranes, herons, egrets and turkeys. They have also had much contact with cricket-type, 'jumpy' bugs.
The cranes, ever vigilant and with an expansive senses of time compared to other species, have begun to accept their presence, sometimes dancing and calling for them.
This past weekend, they went out with Princess Coco the Most Adorable. While out, they received a last minute invitation to observe a Council of the Crane Elders; approximately 20 cranes meeting about issues of state. All three were allowed to stay in this august presence for approximately 10 minutes human time. All three were naturally awestruck to be in the presence of such ancient knowledge as is held by this oldest living species of life as we know it.
After returning to The Annex, Princess Treasure contemplated their reports. In return, she has sent offerings of hunting rights to The Realm; as cranes are omniverous, they do have an appetite for small game in common with felines.
All in the Realm await their reply with baited breath.
