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.
PS: Tama-Chan is declaring absolute victory over "yesterday's matter." You see, that California cat was running scared and did not even leave a comment!!! Woo HOO!
Look! Look! A photo of our Tommy and Fernant together where Fernant isn't chewing Tom's ears off! Can it be that Fernant is becoming a real Poupounette Gang member in spirit as well? Extra treats for everyone! A real celebration!
We love to see your friendship with Fernant blossoming Tommy-how fortunate that you each have each other. You gotta have friends! :) Tama-Chan we didn't fret for a moment about the possibility that you would lose your throne.It's simply not possible!! the critters in The Cottage
