Friends, I have been super busy on my whirlwind tour of London. The whole country is buzzing with excitement over the wedding of Prince William to Miss Catherine Middleton. I wanted to share a few snapshots with you from my visit.
I had a wonderful chat with Willow, a beautiful Corgi living in the same habitat with Her Majesty.
I had tea and biscuits with Prince Charles and Camilla. My eyes match the color in their jackets, don’t they?
I had a visit with Prince William and Miss Catherine while they were taking a stroll. They have a lot on their minds. Kate was getting ready to go out to do a bit of shopping.
Prince William was kind enough to fix us a bite to eat. Prince Harry told us a really funny story too. I was hoping there was some duck and pea for me. That is a lot of lettuce.
After lunch I set out to do a bit of shopping myself. I was lucky to catch the Royal Guard in action.
Then I stopped by Westminster Abbey, where everyone is busy with the Royal Wedding details.
I ran into Kate, I mean Miss Catherine, while she was out shopping. She is quite lovely, isn’t she?
Then I had to get serious about a wedding gift for the Royal Couple. So I headed to the Harrod’s Food Hall. I was sure they would have something wonderful to give to as a gift.
My first choice for a wedding gift was some delicious dried tuna flakes. The Queen was super polite, but she thought perhaps I should think of something else for the couple. So I had to head to my thinking circle. When I woke up from my nap, I mean when I finished thinking in my circle, I came up with a bloody brilliant idea for a wedding gift.
I will make a donation to The Prince William & Miss Catherine Middleton Charitable Gift Fund! The couple have chosen the Zoological Society of London’s Tiger Conservation as one of the charities in their gift fund. Super Hurrah!!
The Queen was much happier with this gift selection. In fact, she was super happy !
Her Majesty was so happy she let me spend the rest of the day with her. I had a hard time keeping up with her schedule. I am ready for a nap and a snack.
I hope you enjoyed my snapshots of my visit! The Royal Wedding will be starting in just a few hours now.
I hope you have tea and biscuits in your habitat. We do. Meow for Now!
UPDATE
The Queen arrives at the Abbey for the wedding. I think this might take a while. The Queen is a super busy lady. I have to take a rest when I can get one.
The beautiful bride arrives.
I hope Prince William and Princess Catherine will live a long and happy life together.
I wonder where the Queen put my thinking circle. I could use a nap.

I just received a photograph that was taken in the Buckingham Palace throne room. I will miss spending time with the Queen but there really is no place like home.
Thank you for visiting my photo album.
Aww Gracey…you fit into royalty so well! xx
Thank you Mary, but there really is no place like home. xoxo
I just saw this for the first time. Missed it when it was originally posted. Thanks for posting again! Sooooo very cute. Have a purrfect day!
Thank you for reading about my trip to see the Queen. I hope you have a purrfect day too.
You must be the envy of all the other cats, been at Royal Wedding, and your gt reporter, love pics, at least the Queen was happy, with her hat. I would really like to ask you a question pl.
Is it true, A dog has a master, but a cat has a servant ? Lol.
Muriel, we do not have a dog living with us in our habitat at this time, so I am not sure. But in our house I think we are all equals. No servant, no master. xoxo
Thanks for sharing this wonderful album!!! it is absolutely fabulous!!!!!! It was great you got to share in this wonderful event!!!
I am so glad that you liked my photo album, Lisa.
Gracey, loved your tour of London – you looked right at home there under the queen’s chair! I’ll bet she misses you….I know I would. Love you, Gracey, you are the best ambassador ever!!!
Thank you Mary. I had a fantastic time. But there is no place like home.
Gracey, that was just lovely!
Thank you Janell!
Gracey, you rule! This is the best tour of London and the wedding festivities I saw next to the wedding itself! I love you, you are a true Queen all your own!
Thank you so much Bethie! I love you too. xoxox
At first I though the Royal Guard photo was a “Where’s Waldo.” Once I enlarged it I found her. Glad to see that she is attending all celebrity events. I haven’t heard of anyone else in Perry County being invited and for sure no one that attended. Go Gracey!
I am glad that you enjoyed my photo album. I had a terrific time.
I enjoyed your visit , photos and commentary very much!! I love the Queen’s expression over your first gift offering! At least it wasn’t a mouse or bird!!
Thank you so much Coral Yes, I am glad the Queen redirected me to the Charitable Gift. She was very nice.
Awh lovely girl.i miss the festivities but thru ur i-report we are all caught up in my Habitat.thank you from,Mitten-Pharoah,Billy,Precious and myself.Mouah =^.^= xox
You are welcome Jone. So nice to hear from all of you. xoxox
Gracey, I’ve been up since 6 a.m. watching the gala live, and you know, I may have spotted you on the red carpet just as Lady Catherine was about to enter the Abbey! I’m glad you enjoyed the wedding. You deserve a nice nap after your fine reporting!
How exciting that you saw me on the red carpet. Did you drink tea and eat biscuits too?
Gracey, I hope you liked your trip across the pond. My friend Maximus from Facebook lives there. Maybe he was at the wedding , too!
That was from Lola, Gracey.
This made me laugh out loud for real! Brilliant post!
Super Hurra! We can all use a laugh out loud moment in our lives!
So beautiful, Gracie! What an amazing trip you must have had! It’s been so much fun reading about all of your adventures – we felt like we were there with you! What did the Prince make you for breakfast?
It was super fun! I am glad that you liked my photo album. He surprised me with some duck and pea in an English porcelain dish. It was just lovely.
So adorable !!!
Thank you Fred! I think you are adorable too!
Gracey, you did such a wonderful job telling us of your tales to the Royal Wedding. You also have some very beautiful pictures to commemorate it. I could see by the smiles on their faces that you made everyone happy with your presence. You fit in so perfectly with the Royalty, so it is obvious that you must have royal blood in your lines too! Thank you for sharing. It made us feel like we were right there with you. Love you pretty girl. Have a “super” weekend.
Thank you Elizabeth. It was nice to visit but there really is no place like home. I love you too! I hope you have a super weekend too!
What a wonderful experience for you and the royal family!!! Love the Queen’s expression when you told her about tuna flakes!!! Thank you for the amazing pictures!!!!
Carolyn, for some reason the Queen did not think the dried tuna flakes were a good idea for a wedding gift.
I love you so much, Gracie. You’re super cute and I never get enough of you. Hugs and kisses from me. xo.
Oh thank you so much Seryn. I love you too and think you are super cute.
Gracie, your so cute!!!!!!!! Your a Royal in yourself, your just so cute and cuddly, I’m sure they totally loved you!!! I know I do!!!!! ;0)
Thank you so much Hansell. I love you too. Thank you for being my Friend!
Super cute, Gracey!
Thank you Laura! I think you are super cute too.
What a wonderful trip for you! Thanks for the great photos. My kitty Magika, who is half Egyptian Mau therefore decended from Great Royalty herself, would love to go with you next time!
Carole
Carole, I think I have a little Egyptian Mau in me. Does Magika talk a lot and place her paw on your hand?
Oh my gosh! Magika is a constant chatter box….lol. Sometimes she talks to her toys, sometimes she crawls in a cupboard and talks to herself or someone. And sometimes she wanders around the house just talkin away. Our youngest kitten, Comet, has got to have some Mau in him because he does the same thing. He also likes to hold hands. He’s my dad’s alarm clock, and when dad doesn’t get up right away Comet will come in my room and wake me up so I can wake up dad. He’s very gentle about waking us up. He’s tap-tap-taps us on the face (he’s got such soft toes) and mows.
That is so interesting Carole. I talk a lot too and I love to hold my mom’s hand. We must be cousins for sure.
Oh my gracious. This is adorable!
Awww, Thank you Lisa. I think you are adorable too.
This is just super. So cute.
Thank you Josie! I think you are super!
