Dear Slave
I understand we are moving house on Tuesday. I see you, running around packing in a flurry of panic and I feel a small amount of pity for you.
Now, in order that this 'moving' experience be as stress free and coordinated as possible, I have a few demands that you will fulfill.
1. I do not wish to be disturbed during my usual nap time. Do not move me to the new house until I am well rested and have stirred from my slumber.
2. Feed me steak served on a bed of carrots before I leave the old house. I will NOT be happy if I am hungry.
3. I demand a separate vehicle. A horse drawn carriage would be best. I do not want to travel in the cat carrier with a certain stinky cat.
4. Come to think of it, I demand a gold satin cushion placed within the horse drawn carriage for maximum comfort and style. I also want several human slaves accompanying me on the journey. They may feed me sardines and/or temptations and may sprinkle catnip around the carriage. They may also kiss my paws but not too often.
5. I assume you have made arrangements for the commoners to line the streets on my arrival? They may stand either side of the red carpet, but not too close to me. Ensure they too have bags of 'nip with which to shower me when I am near.
6. It goes without saying, my throne and my bed will be ready upon my arrival. I have no doubt I will be exhausted from the ten minute journey.
I am sad that my passport has not arrived in time for me to emigrate to Siam. For now, I will remain your Royal Master.
I bid you adieu

Oh, Yao-Lin, I did not know you were moving! I hope your new castle is very majestic, as befits your royal status. Be safe, and happy traveling in your horse-drawn carriage. Moving is hard work, but I can't wait to hear about your new place.
Good luck with the move Yao-lin! I hope it is as smooth and as stress free as possible!
Oh, we hear dat moving is furry hard work. We don't 'do' work being cats. Hope yoor new place is befitting yoor royal status. Good luck on a smooth and stress free move.
Number 5 is most important! I love that one!
Where are you moving to? Did we miss something? Can we help?
And do not dread the new IDYA - it will NOT involve silly pictures of your Royal Highness out on the web - Karl is actually doing it because he had such an intriguing idea, I allowed him to do it. Just once!!!

If it weren't so fat away, I have my mombean standing on the side of the road waving and cheering about what a great kitty you are.
Alas, we live on the other side on the world.

Yao-lin - we hopes the move goes well.
Those are excellent instructions, Yao-Lin - I hope your slaves abide by them.
We hope the move goes ever so smoothly. Well, I hope your slaves don't blow it and make a huge mess of things.
Oh, Yao-Lin, I guess your wishes will be fulfilled ;-P! The slaves always do what we want, because they know they have no other options! Good luck with the move...
Wowie, I didn't know you were moving! Good luck, and I hope your humans move you to yur new place as a Royal Highness should be moved!
