While couriers M and Gwen wend their way back from Portugal and Spain, couriers J and Simon made a quick trip to France and back.
Dawn’s feline family — and Fleur the Deer Hound
Dawn, along with her Deer Hound Fleur and her 13 cats, have relocated from Suffolk to the Charente region of France. Among the cats there’s a rather stunning selection of Siamese, Havanas, Burmese, Burmillas and Orientals.

We enjoyed the views and autumnal colours in Poitou-Charente

Enticing-looking berries

Gorgeous Dixie

Amber and Cuddles

Cuddles and Douglas — cuddling!

Pixie telling us what she thinks, in typical Siamese vocal fashion!

This puss wasn’t too keen on the paparazzi

Very alert Mindy

Stately Fleur
Izzy, Coco, Timothy and Misty
On the way back from reuniting Dawn with her gang in Esse, we stopped off in the Bergerac area to collect Heather and Gordon’s Chihuahua, Izzy, and their three cats Timothy, Coco and Misty. The family is moving to Norfolk.

Handsome Timothy

Darling Misty

Gorgeous Coco

Sweet-natured Izzy (who’s smaller than all the cats!) homeboarded with us for a few days. Here she is having a cuddle with Maddie.

Izzy tried out for the job of office assistant but her shorthand was a bit rusty. She does, however, have the ears to hear everything that’s going on around her!
Wow – a real pet lover.
Yup, and she has a lot of very gorgeous cats and a very splendid dog.
Gorgeous views! Gorgeous cats and Izzy looks a real sweetie!
Izzy won everyone over!
oh the eyes of this beautiful cats…and you even got a special cat song from Pixie ;O)
Pixie did serenade us quite wonderfully 😀
Those are some seriously beautiful cats!
They are a very distinguished group — a shame we couldn’t get better photos.

Dawn has a huge family of very lovely pets.
I liked the view of the viaduct even more than the pictures of your handsome passengers.
Glad you did as it’s one of our favourite photos yet.
What beautiful cats! I love to tell my husband about these families, hoping that he will better appreciate that our animal family isn’t as big as that! With 4 dogs, 2 cats, and 3 parrots, he think is we are overwhelmed. But I think 13 cats would be wonderful!
Well, keep sending him over to the blog as we do have some very large families travelling with us!
The first photo of fall colors is fantastic.
That photo is one of the very best taken on our travels.
Gosh what a load of CUTIES!!!!
Pam and Teddy
Aren’t they!
Amber is a beauty. And I laughed at Pixie vocalizing. Except for color, Misty reminds me of the cat I included in my last blog that I found in a store window in Ashland, Oregon. Great kick-off photo at the top of the post! –Curt
You’re right, Misty does have that look, irresistible!
Beautiful pictures. Izzy in particular looks soooo cute.
Izzy is a sweetheart.
