Two cats … one who adopted us, having previously lived up the hill. Named "Merdouille - which means something very rude in French - by her original owners, renamed "Margot", by me. She's a calico cat and they are supposed to bring good fortune, but I haven't noticed any sign of that yet! The other cat, "Seamus", was originally called "Shiro" when I picked him up from a pet rescue place in Bergerac. He is a tortoiseshell
and about twice the size of Margot. I will try to upload photos, but it never seems to work when I do that on here. Ooh … it worked!
