It had taken her a long while to decide just what to give the clan's healer for saving her life. The answer had been staring her in the face all morning as she rummaged through her wares and goods. The tiny woman had finally given up and sat in the middle of the old hallowed out oak tree, her arms crossed as she stewed over her problem. The whole time she had been picking through her artifacts Sup-Sup and the lovely silvery feline speckled with spots and stripes had been under paw, twining around her form and purring in that annoy but lovely way. She finally sighed and gave up as both of the creatures crawled on top of her small frame and curled themselves up to nap.

She had been absently stroking the over sized ears of the unnamed beast when her black tipped nails stopped suddenly in mid-stroke. She glanced down at the feline she had yet found a home for and smiled. While the coyotes of the clan could rid their homes of rats and mice by themselves the small felines were build to do nothing more than rid the world of pint sized pests, except Zana of course, for some reason they stuck to her like glue. A small smile soon spilled across her maw as she realized just the perfect gift to show her eternal appreciation for the gift of her life that Enkiel had restored to her just nearly a moon ago.

The small woman had decided to groom the young cat up nicely before venturing off to the guest house. The small creature's fur was still damp but glossy now, a lilac ribbon tied around it's neck, to which oddly enough the cat didn't attempt to destroy, instead it preened and in a prissy manner pranced about the den while she found a rather large basket she had woven a few weeks past. She lined the basket with soft silky rabbit pelts before placing the small cat inside and closing the lid. Small protests at being shut in emerged from the basket but soon ended as she began the trek towards the mansion and guest house.

It hadn't taken her long, as there was a straight shot path to the mansion created by the paws of clan mates who visited the springs. Her over sized ears were pricked forward as she listened for the healer. It was just her luck that the male wasn't home, as she wasn't certain just how he would react to being gifted for his services. She placed the basket on the bed where he tended to the clan, no one was about in the house but she figured that she should leave the kitten in the basket in case it caused chaos among his stores. She had penned her name on a scrap of hide and tied it to the basket with another bit of ribbon before leaving the house.

She knew the small feline would be taken care of, or perhaps it would take care of Enkiel, but either way she felt that she had found the perfect gift for their silent miracle worker.
