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.
It is a good day for snoozing here too -- very cold! I thought your kitten pics from yesterday were tres adorable -- they are getting big. GK and Tiger like feather sticks too! And we want to hear an update on El Tigre (we call Tiger that sometimes) when you have a chance!
It is freezing cold here too AND snowing lots - we two are out all the time loving it. That is, until Mom makes us come in and then we take a snooze and gear up for the next round.
It's snowing here and freezing, so we don't blame you, napping in the warm.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like the best way to spend a cold day!
ReplyDeleteA wise choice, kitties and Tommy. A very wise choice.
ReplyDeleteThere hardly seem like any palces to escape the cold, except for the southern hemisphere! Global warming?
ReplyDeleteIt's so very cold here too. We're afraid The Fischies won't make it through this time. Stay cosy, dear friends!

ReplyDeleteYou all have the best idea of how to spend a cold winter day. Stay warm and snuggle up close.

PeeEssWoo: Hi Tommy!
Stay warm and have some happy naps!
ReplyDeleteOh I think you are smart to stay warm and cuddled inside!
ReplyDeleteIt's snowing here too. Brrrrr.... sleeping in the warm is the most sensible thing to do.
ReplyDeleteSlightly chilly in the Bay Area, so I'm happy to have 9 and Chani be my heat supply.
ReplyDeleteThat iz an awesome plan. That iz ez'actly mai plan, too!
ReplyDeleteWe've got a lovely hot sunny day here in Auckland, but I imagine I'll be doing a bit of the same, too!
ReplyDeleteYou all look warm and comfy. When it's this cold, staying in and relaxing is the only thing to do.
ReplyDeleteLove that yawn on Yuu-Chan:)

It's bitterly cold here too with snow and hailstones all day today so we followed your example!
ReplyDeleteNothing like a sleepy Wednesday!
There's no better way to spend a cold day than to curl up and take a nice, cozy nap. :)
ReplyDeleteOh Tommy, you look a little worn down, we wonder if the kittens are wearing you out a bit?
