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.
Glad it is over. The "news" media is sorely disappointed because they love to find an easy way to fill that air time...you know, the short time span between advertisements where they squeeze in what they pass off as "news." They are filling it right now with post-election "analysis." So I've been told by the lady. Me, I stay out of polly-ticks.
My human was only a little concerned with the national election - living in California, we are sort of a country all to ourselves! She was more interested in the local measures and most went the way she wanted.
It sure was GREAT news from the other side of the pound :)
