The Taster Blankets have been set up just a little away from the hustle and bustle, and we’ll find you a spot on them where you can enjoy the pawty in comfort if you’re not feeling up to dancing.

Olive’s Memorial Blanket can be found here too. Kitchen Liaison Roxi will make sure the quality of the food is everything you hope for.

Our very own in-house dance troupe, “Ruby and the Kittens” are already getting warmed up ready to dance the night away. They’d love to have you join in and dance with them. Maybe you can teach them your favorite moves too!

It’s time to get this party started! Head on over and join us for a day and night of fun!

Check out our new aprons too! Aren’t they awesome?

It's so wonderful to see you Sinver! No need to be shy - if you need any introductions to any of the new kitties, Roxi or I will be happy to help. I know we're all looking forward to some catnip at the end of our feast too. ~Chef Luna

How lovely that you're joining us tonight! China was one of our longest-attending kitties at the pawties and was the real pawty animal on this side of the veil. From what I've seen, nothing has changed now she's at the Bridge - she's always one of the first kitties we see as the veil lifts. And I'm so happy to hear that she's going to play da piano for us all - she is a wonderful musician. Hopefully she will play for us at every Full Moon!

Roxi also has no toofers. She tests all da crunchy foods for us to make sure dey are just soft enough for kitties with no toofs. So please do give them a try - no-one will mind if there are some that you can't eat. ~Chef Luna
 
Kitties all - it's time for the most special part of our evening. It's time for the Circle of Remembrance. Gather round - make sure you have a great view. Stop the music and the dancing for these precious minutes with our GA loved ones. I see the Bridge pawty coming into view now. China is sitting at her piano waiting until she is in full view for all of us before she starts playing. She's beautiful in one of her special pawty frocks for the occasion - she's always loved to dress up for pawties. All of our GAs are gathered around her. Soon our pawty will resume and we'll dance and feast until dawn. But now, let's enjoy this special time, and listen to China's beautiful piano playing while spending time with our loved ones at the Bridge. ~Chef Luna
 
Oh boy! Argentina!! Civie Gus wants to learn how to TANGO and is putting on his dancin' shoes. What a great menu! Chef Luna, you have outdone yourself. What a great apron!
Party on, kitties!
Yup, China was always the life of the party. Sending greetings to her, Rusty, Stu, and all the kitties at the Bridge.
We're all learning the Tango tonight Auntie Ella! I'm glad Gus brought his dancing shoes along. And thank you for the kind words - we try to make each pawty special for everyone. ~Chef Luna

Sad to say, but I think there are more kitties at the Bridge now than on this side of the veil who I've known from the forums here. Like so many of you, these parties are such a special time for me to remember each and every one of them - we all get so attached to all the cats here, each one is like losing a member of our own family.
 
Ivan texted me from the party, saying he was having fun with his friends Sinver, Garfield, and Gus, and all the rest. He had to skip the tango lessons because that's a bit much for his hip, but he has enjoyed nibbling from the buffet tables and watching the others. The aprons remind him of the deer we get in our yard, although we rarely see anyone with antlers. He was excited because he'd never even seen a piano before, and now he's seen a celestial beauty play celestial piano (and celestial hits of the 1960s and '70s, no less).

Yes.
