Le chat du fleuriste


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!

When I was in Amsterdam recently, I saw a lot of cats in shops and cafés.

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.

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!

Kay said...

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!

Alexa said...

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!

Malyss said...

Cats and flowers match so well together!

Harriet said...

Adorable! Does the real kitty have a leash. That looks like a harness that he/she is wearing.

Sarah said...

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!

Virginia said...

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!
