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.
Ollie: OK, so we know that spaniels do great flying ears but this time, we have a first for you! A double flying ear performance by me and Lab Fernant!
Yes Ollie, Fernant's flying ears are almost as impressive as yours! Tama, it will take a while for PP to learn these things because he is too busy being PP! You have pawsome frootbats :) Purrs, Julie
That is a very good display of double flying ears! You have very good frootbats for a trainee, Benny. I suspect you will grow into them in time. Tams, your frootbats are lovely.
Wow, what a great capture of those flying ears! Benny, your frootbats are going to be the subjects of many a picture...and you are off to a great tart. Patience, Tama...MOL!
