All our pets
Since I was born, I've lived with pets : my first dog, Yankee, was a "Bouvier des Flandres" breed.
My mum offered me later a stray black cat, Poï Poï . Since then I only adopted black cats (4 so far. Leo, Zig, Zia and Zoé)
My grand parents owned a teckel Baltazar, later on a boxer, Candide, then 2 labradors called Yan and Sarn. I spent my school holidays playing with them when I was a teen ager.
Young adult I lived in Paris with a black poodle called Schproumpf, a quite agressive one !He ended his life in the country, living with my grand parents who had lost their labs. Much more happy than in a city !
In 1994 my husband and I took a hunting dog : a drahthaar called Jim.
We had asked 3 vets to be sure it was not a mistake to make him live in a big town and run only during week ends.
We offered him a young black kitten, Leo , to keep him company when we moved to Provence in 2007, in a big house + garden. Both lived with us until may 2008.
Jim crossed the rainbow aged 14 years old, and Leo disappeared a few days later ! Did he try to find another house with a dog to love ? We'll never know...
After Jim and Leo losses, we adopted a rescue dog, Foudre, a 18 months old Beauceron x Griffon who had been abandonned 3 times, puppy then by 2 different masters

Nuage, a 6 months old border collie, found abandoned on the road, in summer, probably thrown out of a car (he was panicked by them afterwards) joined the pack a few weeks later.
The 3 loved each other. It was a pleasure to see them play, sleep together. The dogs were both the kindiest we ever had, we never heard them growl..jpg)
Sadly, Foudre crossed the rainbow bridge in march 2018 (lymphom), when he was 12 years old. Nuage, passed away two years later (lung cancer), at the same age...
We decided to welcome a new puppy, Tahoe, born in april 2020, during the following summer. This young golden retriever x spaniel was very fond of Zig, our beloved black cat.
