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.
The Big V: After Ollie and the kitties, I thought you would like to see some pics of me in the snow! These come courtesy of Ms. A who always looks after me so well.
There's even a little video in which you can admire my moves!
Oh Vidock, you looks so very handsome in your custom made blanket and I am loving your 'moves'. I bet the ground shakes and sounds like thunder when you run...
Lovely video of you enjoying yourself, Vidock. You look very snug and warm in your rug.

PeeEssWoo: Hi Ollie - I'm hearing I'm going to get to see Auntie Di and Khousin Royce - but my #1 doesn't think I know that!
Java Bean: "Ayyy, trotting through the snow, that looks like a good time! I would probably need a coat too, since my fur is so short ..."
