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.
Benny & Momo: We are thankful that it is now warm enough that #1 can open the window in the kitchen and we can watch the little lizards on the ledge to our hearts' content!
still giggling histerically at the last shot. just toooo precious for words. so happy you can smell and see out the open window. we like lizard watching too
Oona: "Oona also likes to watch lizards on the patio! I hope some day I might get to chase one!" Lulu: "Never gonna happen." Chaplin: "Well it might. One of them got in the house once and we cats had a grand old time trying to catch it." Oona: "Let's let all the lizards into the house!" Charlee: "I don't think Mama and Dada would like that very mu—" Oona: "ALL LIZARDS ALL THE TIME!!!"
we agree...and we look forward to a sunny weekend..
