CC: A Visitor


 
Posted by Picasa


When we were in Messanges in the south-west of France we rented a nice little holiday cottage. Apparently we were not the only persons who liked this house. On one of the first days we were there, this beautiful feline creature had chosen to stay with us in the house. The proprietress of the house didn't know where he came from, but he seemed happy with us and we were likewise happy with him. I didn't know much about him, only that he was fond of cheese. Was that the reason that he chose Dutch people to stay with for a week?

Well, if you must share your guest accommodations, might as well be someone who is agreeable, cute and likes cheese!

I always love it when I go somewhere and there is a resident cat...or dog even. This one is pretty and looks so gentle.

Hahaha...the cat must have known you dutch people make the best cheese in the world. He's a friendly one, most of them cats are.

EG CameraGirl said...

He's very handsome and looks very comfortable in his spot. Isn't he lucky you let him stay with you? What's more, you fed him cheese. ;-)

Carletta said...

Oh so cute! He doesn't look like he was very old. Love his coloring.

Lilli & Nevada said...

Well he certainly knew were he would be welcomed. And cheese to boot. Maybe he was hoping that with your cheese it would bring out a tasty mouse.

Cloudia said...

DeniseinVA said...
