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.
Vidock, you look mighty happy. You look happy too Violette,especially when treats are at hand,or hoof ;) We like the family shot. Purrs Georgia,Julie and JJ
C'est vrai que vous avez tous les deux un petit air boueux. Mais comme je présume que vous n'avez pas de concours d'élégance dans votre proche agenda .... ce n'est pas grave !
we feel with you big V... and we hope the storm who is on the way to us will not cause more mud...

You all look very lovely today even Vidock with his muddy coat.
ReplyDeleteYou always look grand and Royal Vidock!
ReplyDeleteThat mud helps keep you warm. So go for the rugged look for the winter.
