Manly Monday With Momo

 

Momo-Chan: Hi Everyone! Fluff Puff here! I can't believe it's Monday already! Where does the time go? We had a nice week last week. We all love spring! This week will be quite busy. Our friend, Ms. N, is coming to visit for a few days from Thursday, and that will be fun. I know she will be in awe at all the handsomeness she will be faced with!

Let me start this week with Benny The Black who was caught red-pawed with a toy!

He also likes to help #1 at the computer, now that Queen Tama is no longer with us:

As you know, Ryū-Chan is very busy much of the time, but he does rest up from time to time and that is when #1 can snag the best photos.

This next one comes courtesy of Mr. G:

As for me, what can I say. I bask in my fluffiness each and every day!

In case you're wondering about the flag, it was given to #1 by Lottie Fry's groom so she could wave it about at a big dressage competition!

Here is a close-up for you:

Ollie wanted to share this nice photo of himself with his pals, Sheba (long-haired black Groenendael) and Charlie (Border Collie)

He enjoyed a really nice walk with #1 and a friend in a new wood the other day!

As for The Big V, well he is still shedding and #1 is still grooming!!!

We hope you all have a wonderful week!

PS: I thought I would just mention that this is a big week for me as I will be doing some celebrating on Saturday!

Snuggles on Sunday

 

Benny: Greetings and welcome to our weekly "love-in" post! I am your host, Benny The Black. This week, I would like to start with the largest among us, the horses!

Here, first, is Miss Violette enjoying a snuggle with #1:

And here is The Big V!

Next we have a fun "Twofer" shot of me and little Dragon Ryū, filling up #1's lap (and more!):

Later that evening...

#1 even managed to snag a selfie of herself and Ryū!

Momo snuggling with one of Ollie's toys:

I wanted to share another of the wonderful series that Mr. G took of me and Ollie:

And to close, here is a morning shot of me and my bro, Momo:

We hope you all have a sunny and snuggly Sunday!

Sei-Chan's Souvenir Saturday

 

Rainbow Sei: Hello everyone! How have you been? It's been a little while and I am glad to be back with a souvenir post for you. I shall start today with Queen Tama when she was still a baby. She was extremely attached to Sen-Chan and really distraught when he left for the Bridge only a few months after her arrival. Here they are together:

The amazing thing is that, when Sen-Chan left, woofie Tommy took over little Tama's care. He barely ever left her side:

You can see why she was so attached to him, and how happy she was to be reunited with him when she arrived.

Talking about baby shots, here is one of me:

Let's move on to gorgeous Yuu-Chan who was at Poupounette Central such a short time, but left such a mark in the hearts of all who knew him:

When he was a baby, Da Beebs also loved Yuu-Chan, but sadly lost him before he was a year old.

Genji never had the opportunity to meet Yuu-Chan, but he was a really good little brother to Beebs and a great snuggler with #1.

Tommy now looks after all of us here at the Bridge:

And Trav is now a full member of our Gang. This photo was taken just after he arrived in our neighbourhood, and he still didn't really trust #1.

Hotesse is such a joy for all of us to be around. She is our doyenne, as she had the longest life.

And we wrap up today's post with the first among us, Ikkyu, the international cat of mystery!

I do hope you enjoyed today's post, and look forward to being back with another post very soon! But I can already tell you that it won't be next week as there will be a guest at Poupounette Central.

Vidock and Violette Vendredi

 

Vidock: Handsome neighs, EveryFriend! The Big V here! Boy, are we having fun in our new digs. It's nice to be with Violette, and the girls come to see us lots! There are also two nice woofies, Sheba and Charlie. And to make things even better, #1 comes to see us twice a week, and has been taking really good care of us!

We're coming #1!

With spring well and truly sprung, we have started shedding our thick winter coats and one thing we really appreciate is serious brushies!

Here is Miss Violette:

You'll come back again soon, #1? Saturday? That's a promise?

See you on Saturday! Don't forget the apples and carrots! And the Polo mints!

Thankful Thursday

 

Ryū-Chan: Today, we are thankful for sunshine and window whiffies!

Woofie Wednesday

 

Ollie: Woofs, Everyone! Ollie here! I hope you are all well. We are enjoying some beautiful weather at the moment, and #1 is spending quite a bit of the time in the garden, which is great for me!

Not so great was the fact that I ended up getting another detangling session the other day. It always seems to coincide with when Mr. G and Ms. N come to tea! Anyway, #1 said I still had some awful matted lumps and they needed seeing to. To be honest, I am really good as she does this:

Do you like my new "do"?

Since the weather has been so nice, #1 has let me ruin in the fields a bit and guess what? I found a dead bird! I was really proud to carry it around, like a real bird dog!

#1 asked me to mention that we have a really busy day today, so she's not going to be able to do Rainbow Queen Tama's post this week. She will be back next week, promise!

Talking Tuesday

 

Benny The Black: I am the talker in this family. #1 is convinced that I have some meezers among my ancestors because I talk so much (and I also have very elegant little paws). But you know what? Talking is really important because it helps us form closer bonds. So, I spend a lot of time talking with my siblings as well as with #1.

Here I am with Ollie:

Having a chat with young Ryū:

Trying to have a conversation with Momo who was too busy wolfing down treats!

Let me have your thoughts about conversations with your nearest and dearests!

Oh, and Happy St. Patrick's Day!💚🍀
