Dogs or cats? If you have ever so much as glanced at one of my blog posts, you will know the answer to this. However, since we are holidaying in a place where everyone is obsessed with dogs, I am giving the canine contingent a shout-out, just this once. From tomorrow, I’ll be back on…

What bothers you and why? Cat Daddy and I are holidaying in the Outer Hebrides, and Louis Catorze is someone else’s problem now in the care of his chat-sitteur. However, despite our distance, it seems we have not been able to wholly escape the little sod. We saw this picture in a restaurant in Stornoway:…

What time do you go to bed and wake up currently? Since it’s Catorzian Summer Time, Louis Catorze sleeps all day and parties all night. Nobody knows exactly what time he goes to bed or wakes up, because our body clocks are so at odds with his. One night last week, I was woken at…

We have had a Code Bleu emergency: Cat Daddy used all the ice for cocktails, leaving none for our holiday chat-sitteur to use on Louis Catorze. Neither Sainsbury’s nor the organic shop had any ice when we looked. However, merci à Dieu for the mighty saviour that is Lidl: (Incidentally, we only buy ice from…

It’s the school holidays! And look at the tote bag that Willow the miniature dachshund’s human brother gave me, as part of his “Merci et au revoir” present: Cat Daddy and I are preparing to leave at the end of the week for our annual trip to the Scottish Highlands. So, naturellement, Louis Catorze has…

Today has been one giant step for feline, and one enormous leap backwards for man (and woman): Cat Daddy and I schlepped all the way to the shop and back again, in the searing heat, to buy ice for Louis Catorze’s ice cube massage. It would have added insult to injury had the bag of…

Louis Catorze’s blood test results are in. His thyroid reading is now at a healthy level, which means that his medication is at the right dosage for him. However, his kidney reading is slightly elevated, most likely due to the thyroid medication “unmasking” a previously-hidden kidney condition (that same one that seems to come for…

How do you express your gratitude? Louis Catorze thinks it’s everyone else who ought to be grateful for knowing him. But merci for asking. For more Catorzian capers, please visit http://louiscatorze.com

We have had some searingly hot days recently, and having to go to school through it has been pretty grim. However, Louis Catorze is fine, merci for asking, because his ice cube massages have become a regular, daily thing, so much so that we’ve even put it on the House Document for our holiday chat-sitteur.…

When it’s a Dantean hellfire outside, what could be more fun than dragging a scowling animal, in the car, to a place that he really hates? Cat Daddy and I had hoped to delay this vet visit until just before our holiday, but Louis Catorze has been uncomfortably scratchy, to the point of breaking the…

This is Willow, whose human brother was, until last week, one of my students: For the last three years I have seen photos of Willow, and she was even mentioned in her human brother’s French speaking exam, in what would otherwise have been quite a boring task to conduct. (“Je voudrais réserver une table pour…

How important is spirituality in your life? We know that hell is real. We also know that the devil walks among us, cloaked in fur of deepest black. For more Catorzian capers, please visit http://louiscatorze.com

How do you practise self-care? When it’s a raging Dantean hellfire outside, and you are a black animal covered in fur, you may find it difficult to keep cool. What a stroke of luck, then, that ice cube massages are a thing. If you don’t know what they are, they’re exactly as they sound. And…
