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.
Dearest Pet Lovers, So good to see happy pets that are being loved and cared for—the way it always ought to be! We at one time had 8 kitties, people dumping sick kittens off on our driveway... SAD and it is criminal in my opinion but in the end they will be judged by our Final Judge and we sure hope that our fur babies have souls and will meet with us again... Thanks for your comment on the passing of our Dido boy. Hugs, Mariette
happy boys wednesday ;O)
