Long Live the Queen!


LONG LIVE THE QUEEN!
by Chatty Catty

The Queen of the Condo, Miss Lady herself, abdicated this week. "Reigning over all these cats and all these volunteers was fun," she said, "but I am now ready to be properly served and honored as befits my station." After a lengthy interview spanning two days, Queen Lady deemed Ms Patten worthy of the position of Prime Minister to the Queen.
Although it is always exciting when a resident of Condo Pulaski finds a home, it's a particularly big thrill when one of the long term residents finds that someone special. The residents celebrated with a tasty Tuna Fest until the wee hours of the morning.


Instead of handing her sceptre over to someone to take over as Queen (or King) of the Condo, Lady instead gave it to the puppies as a parting gift, encouraging them to chew and destroy it to their heart's content. "No one else will ever have to be Ruler of the Condo. It is a long, difficult reign, and I hope that by destroying the sceptre, there will never be another who stays as long as I did. I loved my people, but those beds are HARD. You think the Princess and her puny little pea had it bad? HA!"

All hail the Queen, and may you have a long life filled with plush beds, feathery toys and catnip to your furry little heart's content!
