Genji's Sixth Gotcha Day

#1 here. However hard I try, I just cannot get my head around the fact that little Genji has actually been with us for six whole years! It seems just yesterday that i drove to the airport in Paris to collect him. Here he is on arrival , with his breeder Ms. S:

And with me also at the airport:

 

The three other Chans are all related, so Genji was a bit of an outsider but he adapted so quickly and so well. He never even got hissed at! he is without a doubt the snuggliest of the Chans but he can also be a very annoying little brother, especially as far as the girls are concerned! Still, we all love him with all our hearts!

 

He gave us a big scare last year when he came down with a bad case of pancreatitis, but he has made a great recovery, and we are crossing every finger, toe, paw and hoof in the house that he will stay this way!

De Genj, as he is often known, loves his Kickaroo! 

But perhaps he has ambitions to become a Sumo wrestler?

 

He looks great whatever the background or colour!

 

Thank you, little blue boy, aka The Shining Prince, for sharing your life with us. We love you!

From your #1, Da Beebs, Tama-Chan. Sei-Chan, Tommy Vidock and Violette
