  • Rendez-vous avec Le Prince Bleu

    A few days ago I invited one of my neighbours – Cat Mamma of Blue, the Smoke Bengal – for Crémant and cheese. And, yes, I am fully aware of the middle-classness of every bit of that sentence. If I’m honest, I did have an ulterior motive: Louis Catorze has no friends – Cat Daddy’s…

  • Toujours autant de pluie chez moi

    Autumn is here! And that, invariably, means rain, but it doesn’t stop it from being my favourite time of the year. Now, we all know that Louis Catorze doesn’t respond to anything in the way that a normal cat would, but his love of the rain is something that I find especially freakish. He loves…

  • La place d’un chat est au sommet

    A few nights ago I glimpsed Louis Catorze jumping from our fence post onto the roof of Oscar the dog’s folks’ new extension. As they weren’t home, I didn’t feel any urgent need to drag his arse down (not that I could have done so, even if I had wanted to). Then, as Cat Daddy…

  • Les services de secours

    Yesterday a certain someone had to go for their booster jabs and, because Cat Daddy had the car and Uber won’t accept such short journeys, I had to carry the little sod there and back in his transportation pod. It’s only a short walk but Louis Catorze’s screaming makes it highly stressful and embarrassing. And…

  • Le maître de la scène

    Cat Daddy and I invited That Neighbour and his wife for dinner the other night. Yes, THAT Neighbour; the one who is always having to escort Louis Catorze home when he escapes at The Front and causes carnage in the street. To be honest we had been putting it off because, although they are thoroughly…

  • Maille après maille

    Puppy Mamma and I have really been up against it this week, not only because we are back at school but because our knitting project was due. Despite always telling our students not to leave things until the last minute, we haven’t managed to follow our own advice on this occasion. Stupidly, we didn’t take…
