This blog was started in June 2008 by a young sorrel Abyssinian cat called Sen-Chan and a slightly younger English Springer Spaniel called Tommy. The years that followed were full of hellos and goodbyes. Some, like Sen-Chan and Yuu-Chan, were lost very young. Other Abys like Sei-Chan, Bibi, and Genji stayed with us for quite a few years. But they too have gone now, as has Tommy. In the interim, several Percheron horses joined the family, starting with Vidock in 2010, Violette in 2012, and then Hotesse and Heloise in 2020. They contribute to the blog regularly. But the mainstays are Ollie, also an English Springer Spaniel, Tama, an Abyssinian queen who has been with us since late 2008, and Benkei (Benny), a little ruffian who joined us in 2021, followed by Momo in 2022, and another Aby boy, Ryū, in 2023.. We live in rural France, in a region called the Perche, which is famous for its heavy horses.
Tom: Our visitors are still here and I have been having so much fun with them. They have just about gotten used to me now and we have been playing indoors, playing outdoors, and pretty much playing in our sleep!
Here I am with Isabel, trying to entice her out:
...and with both Isabel and Sophia, helping in the kitchen
I have to say that they are also both big fans of Tama-Chan:
Hi Tom. Thank you for sharing pictures of your new friends...they are both very cute little girls! I'm glad you're winning them over, and it looks like they can't resist petting Tama-Chan's soft silky fur.
They look like very fun humans! I like when humans who are kind and smart come to visit. Most of our guests just call my funny looking and that hurts my feelings.
Tom bof Isabel and Sophia look like sweeties and must be in heaven having you and Tama Chan to play wif and snuggle. I hope all of you had a wondewful Eastew smoochie kisses ASTA
