This is what caught my eye in the window.
This is what I found when I opened the door. The owner even let her go outside for a walk and to say hello to Mary!

About Me
- Virginia
- Birmingham, AL, United States
- I am a former elementary school teacher, a full-time photographer, lover of all things French ( whose French is slowly improving), obsessive Paris traveler, enthusiastic church and community volunteer, and grandmother to 5 delightful grandchildren.
Paris je t'aime
I fell in love with Paris in March 2007. It was as the French say, le coup de foudre : love at first sight. As a result of that trip, my photography took another direction. Since that time I have pursued a career of sorts in photography and dreamed of returning to the City of Light. November 2008 found me strolling the streets of Paris once again. My first visit I was so overwhelmed with the incredible beauty of the city, I photographed it as a "tourist". In 2008 I returned and I looked at the city with more of a photographer's eye. I wanted to capture the unique, the small details, and oh yes - the people! This blog was started as a photo diary of that trip, but I have been most fortunate to return to the city j'adore 15 times since. Each time I leave, I wipe a tear and start planning my list for the next trip. Paris may well be a moveable feast, but I think it's best savored in person! Someone told me that once you have been to Paris, you will leave a piece of your heart. I left mine right there, but I brought home some wonderful memories. It is my pleasure to share them with you.

When I was in Amsterdam recently, I saw a lot of cats in shops and cafés.
I won't tell Meeps.
Ah! I love the real thing ... well fed on foie gras and brie-de- meaux no doubt!
oh la la...qu'ils sont mignons!Adorables!
bisous
Léia and little LUNA ( our kitty )
By the way...little LUNA is your "fan" at facebook!We all love your wonderful creations!
My cats in a flower shop would equal disaster! Good thing this cousin of theirs is better behaved.
The first cat scared me, Virginia, but we all know that I am a wimp and frighten easily. Nice portrait of Mary and the cat.
Is she called Sooty?
MIAU.....adorable and lovely!!!!
Greetings from the Périgord,
karin
ah .. Enzo's cousin inspects Mary's shoes ...
Allergic...I sneezed just having a look! Cute pics!
Cezar and Leila, has your sweet Luna been eyeing Meeps all dressed in her scarves on FB? :)

Oh, how gorgeous!! Both of them, but especially the warm, cuddly, real one.
Just came home after a long weekend in the San Juan Islands... We picked up Monsieur Felix (aka "The Puma") at his hotel on the way back. He let me know in no uncertain terms he is upset with me by waking us up twice in the middle of the night! Sheesh. Veronique (French Girl in Seattle)
Merci Virginie - a great reminder of our day visiting Butte aux Cailles - remember the boulangerie sign across the street?
Adorable! While I'm allergic to cats, I still think they are sweet!
my kitty Sophie looks just like your kitty!
Virgina, I know that from now on you are not going to like me anymore but I am so allergic to cats that I can't stand to even talk about them...
I love when stores have resident cats. It helps foster return business. I know I always make a point to revisit shops that have mascots. Great photos!
It's nice to see cats (and dogs) keeping their humans company at work. Don't think this puss is there to keep down the rodent population—she looks too well-fed!
Cats and flowers match so well together!
Adorable! Does the real kitty have a leash. That looks like a harness that he/she is wearing.
I am newer to your blog and just wanted to tell you how much I am enjoying it! I love France as well and am loving all your french inspired photos!
Of course I love hearing from my faithful readers but I see some new faces here today and I'm so glad you stopped by and left a comment. I hope you'll join us all here everyday. Bienvenue!

Hello Virgina, cute cat! he does go well with the flowers! BTW, thank you so much for your lovely comment - it's lovely to 'meet' you and I'm loving your beautiful photos!!
Sharon
Oh super love this! The tuxie outside and the gorgeous, splendid, real feline inside. :)
Ohhhhh...she reminds me of my late kitty Sophie!
