What Fun Wednesday!


#1 here. I am hijacking the blog today to tell you about the fun I had on Monday evening here in Switzerland. I am working in Lausanne for a few days, and this is very close to where The Swiss Cats, Zorro and Pixie, live with their helpers, Claire and Momo! And they invited me to dinner!

Claire warned me in advance that Zorro would probably be quite friendly, but that I might not even see pretty Pixie or see just a flash of Pixie, as she is very shy with strangers. But...


The truth of it is that there were treats!


And then Pixie realised that the treats were being handed out by a monster stranger!


Handsome Zorro was a lot less shy:



I have to tell you that these two have some of the finest cat trees I have ever seen, put together by doting Momo:




I hall have to rethink the installations at Poupounette Central!

Finally, I am busy doing a cross-cultural training programme for a very nice couple who will be moving to Japan in a few weeks. They have a gorgeous elderly lab called Elliott, who will also be moving to Japan, and I enjoyed him as well!


And, by the way, this part of Switzerland is just stunning!
