We had 3 cats, called Sunny, Luna and Desmo. They are deceased. The cat on the picture is a guest cat called Morrigan. She lives in the neighborhood but she likes to visit us for a hug and a nap.

Bonjour Carien,

My SIamese cat is called Mr. Boots.

Why? Firstly, because he has very dark feets (and points) and they look like Boots. Secondly, because of Puss in Boots. And thirdly, to annoy the French and  remind them of Wellington...and his Boots.

Do you have a cat?

BORING POSTCARDS OF ME AND MY NON-ELECTRIC WALKINg FRAME

After a quick research online the shrimps on the card can either be Vannamei (Asian) or from Argentina. Either way, their choreography is pretty outstanding, don't you agree?

Btw, what is the name of your cat? And does your cat like shrimps? What shrimps in particular?

Hi Carien, I'm surpised that you think the shrimps are ballet-ing. I thought they were in some sort of sports game, maybe getting ready for the 2024 Olympics. Are you really, really sure that they are Norwegian?

BORING POSTCARD OF BORED LOOKING DOG...PLUS VAL'S CAT TAKING NO NOTICE OF THE POSTCARD ON HIS FOOT

I'm surprised you didn't know about the National Norwegian Shrimp Ballet?

A VERY BORING POSTCARD INDEED -- which, to me, raises lots of questions about why on earth anyone would want to produce a Postcard featuring a dozen shrimps, let alone how they managed to get the shrimps to arrane themselves in such a neat formation. Perhaps there is an alternative universe of anf for shrimps and their Postcards? Any ideas?

FRENCH GOOSE -- THINKING ABOUT GETTING STUFFED WITH SWEET CORN, AND THEN BEING STUFFED (fOrce-fed) WITH SWEET CORN. HOW SWEET!  WELL MAYBE NOT FOR THE GOOSE . HOW CORNY? YES!
