Oh, it was quite a shock, to say the very least! When I first came across the scene, I thought surely at least some of the cats are hurt or dead or escaped and lost now.. but I blanked on that and could only take things in and do things one step at a time.
And then, SUCH relief, and such gratitude to whatever forces for harmony and goodness in the universe there may be... the cats were all there and all doing okay.
I brought them more food and supplies today.. Lavinia continues to do just fine, and they all seem pretty much back to life as usual. 
Meanwhile, Ray has gotten some people in who were downstairs starting to clean up the basement and collecting valuable academic materials down there to preserve and restore them. And the water is back on again!.. so I no longer have to bring in jugs of water and then take home the dirty food dishes to wash them in warm water

I meant," said Ipslore bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worthwhile?"
Death thought about it.
CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.
