Sunny Saturday

 Ryū-Chan: Miaows, everyone! Your favourite little Dragon here! After a couple of weeks of rain and cold, the temps have almost doubled overnight and the sun is shining! So, it's window hammock time for me again!

Wishing you all a nice weekend!

Vidock and Violette Vendredi

 

The Big V: Handsome Neighs Everyone! Miss Violette and I are hosting today's post to tell you all about our hooficures yesterday! It had been a while since we had seen the farrier and #1 was getting worried about the length of our hooves. But several farriers have given up farriering in the area over the past few months, and it has become really difficult to find one! #1 was basically wringing her hands in despair, and then she spoke with someone at a Percheron event about a week back, who told her she had a great farrier who was fairly new to the business, and he was willing to travel some distance. #1 contacted him and realised she had met him before when he had helped out at Ms. C's for a while a few years back. Anyneigh, he agreed to come and he came as planned yesterday.

He started with me. My great love, Ms. L, was holding me.

#1 was a little worried because I now have some arthritis in my hind legs and she had been told that it was no longer possible to lift them to trim. Well... the wonderful Mr. P managed without a problem!

Here is a nice pic where you can see me being done, and Miss Violette is patiently waiting her turn:

Then it was Violette's turn:

She snuggled with #1 some of the time;

We of course got carrots afterwards! We now have perfect feet and #1 is happy! Until the next time, Mr. P!

Thankful Thursday

 

#1 here again. You may remember that Queen Tama was my constant companion and supervisor as I worked at the computer. When she left for the Bridge, I somehow had to do everything by myself. But I am glad, and very thankful, to say that I now have a self-elected new companion/supervisor. Fluff Puff Momo is taking his role very seriously!

I have no doubt that you will all be thankful too that proper quality control is in place again!

Woofie Wednesday

 

Ollie: Woofs, everyone! Ollie here! I would like to start my post today with this nice photo of me with my pals Sheba and Charlie:

The weather has been strange lately, with cool temps and lots of showers. So, our walks with #1 have been curtailed a little. But we have done quite well in managing to get out between the raindrops!

It's supposed to warm up quite a bit later this week and then we'll have the problem of it being too hot. You can't win, can you?

Tuesday Treat

 

#1 here. Last summer, my friend Ms. N gave me two lovely pieces of glasses she had made as a birthday gift. I had been sitting on them for a while and finally got around to putting them up a few days ago. Here they are:

I found a spot for them on the wall leading from  the living room to the kitchen.

I still have to figure out how to light them properly, but they are in good company as they are next to the "Golden Cat" and near a painting of my first cat, Ikkyu.

Manly Monday With Momo

 

Momo-Chan: Waves Paws... Hello, everyone, Fluff Puff here, with another week's worth of everything manly and devastatingly handsome! I shall start off with this nice portrait of me taken by #1:

I think I had a visit from Queen Tama the other day:

Here is my big bro, Benny The Black, with some of the art work that graces the wall in #1's bedroom. On the left are portraits of Sen-Chan and Yuu-Chan, plus the collage of our lovely Hotesse, and the portrait of Ollie she received for Christmas.

And here he is with a dangle worthy of Queen Tama:

Mr. G took some nice portraits of Ollie the other day:

Next we have The Big V peering over the garden fence:

And wondering if he can go inside for a cup of tea...

Last but not least is our little Dragon Ryū. He is very good at tucking in his tail just so.

Wishing you all a very good week!

Snuggles on Sunday

 

Benny: Hello everyone and welcome. This is your SoS host, Benny The Black, here with a lovely selection of snuggle shots from the past week. I shall start with myself and my little bro, Momo, as we have been doing a lot of snuggling lately.

Momo has also been snuggling with Ollie:

Ollie shared some nice snuggles with Ms. N the other day:

Mr. G caught Dragon Ryū "speed-snuggling" with #1:

Nowadays, Ryū naps quite regularly next to Ollie:

And also Benny snuggling with #1 in a much more relaxed manner!

As for the Vs, well, The Big V simply adores Ms. L:

Whereas Violette loves Ms. T and vice-versa!

And that's our snuggle post for this Sunday. Wishing you a lovely and snuggly Sunday!

Stealthy Saturday...

 

... With Ryū. Photos courtesy of Mr. G.

Can I have some tea and cake now, please?

Family and Friends on Friday

 

Ollie: Woofs everyone! As you know, we've seen quite a bit of the horses lately, with all the birthdays to celebrate. When she was taking lots of photos for #1, Ms. T got this rather nice one of me through Violette's legs!

We also have this one off the Vs seeing if they can come in for a cup of tea!

Here is a morning scene at Poupounette Central with me and my bros, Benny and Momo:

You may be wondering where Ryū was? Very busy, as usual, although he's never too busy to wrestle with Momo!

Sorry that one's blurry but they were both moving fast!

On the subject of friends, we would like to introduce a new one. Her name is Bonny and she lives in London. She is a very posh cat as her Daddy is the President of the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom!

Isn't she beautiful? She probably hangs out with other high-powered cats such as Larry at No.10, Downing Street. We feel honoured that she was gracious enough to share her photo with us!
