Le Blog is ten years old today. I can’t believe it; I never thought Louis Catorze would still be being a massive shite providing me with material, all these years after that very first post.

Here are quatorze of my favourite Catorzian escapades from over the years, in no particular order: 

  1. Bird on the wire(less headphones)
  2. Our first dinner Chez Oscar the dog
  3. The curly-haired rat.
  4. Screaming, then being escorted off the premises (someone else’s, not ours).
  5. More antics with Oscar.
  6. The Curious Case of the Rat and the Cleaning Lady.  
  7. The beautician’s first visit
  8. The slug. Eurgh. 
  9. Curfew Part 1
  10. Curfew Part 2
  11. Curfew Part 3 aka Cat Daddy drops the ball. 
  12. What The Postman Saw.
  13. The hairy-gileted mouse.
  14. More screaming, more mice.

I hope that you enjoyed the journey back through time. Dare I imagine ten more years of him? Of THIS?

My all-time favourite Catorzian photo. No AI here; I really did spread out a huge French flag and plonk him on top.

      He’s all for La République, provided he can rule it with an iron paw. Ahem.
