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.
Tommy: Today is Tuesday and is the day our #1 returns! So, we will all be spending time this afternoon by the door craning our necks to see if we can spot her coming!
We bet she might have squeezed the odd toy in the car for you all as well as delicious noms. We can see you are waiting for #1's home coming Tom we know you will all have missed her lots. Luv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
Guys (and girls) relax!! You KNOW #1 loves you and can't live without you so she HAS to come home...and she will!! Maybe even bearing presents..? Surely!! We think you are all looking terribly good despite not having #! around to give you the cuddles JUST THE WAY YOU LIKE THEM! Never fear though, as much as you need her cuddles, we're sure that she needs your purring, headbutting, chatter, general silliness and Tom's flappy ears!! Be strong and know that you have lots of friends out here purring for #1's quick and safe return home.
Ciao for now and lots of purrs! Lolo(ve) and company.
