It’s always fascinating what you can find on the internet. People think that we are slightly bonkers, because we walk Bobby in the neighbourhood and in the local forest. But that’s nothing compared to what Laetitia and Guillaume are doing – the French couple is travelling the world with their grey tabby “Kitty”. This cat [...]

Walking Bobby article published
I’m very chuffed that my article about our walks with Bobby is finally published in German magazine Geliebte Katze. Looks great. You can read it here, if you understand German, or at least look at the photos. http://www.hkpress.co.uk/pdfs/BobbyarticleGK032.pdf

Helen's Paws for Thought
- Bobby in a box September 6, 2010Our cat is incredibly nosey and likes small boxes – she even sleeps in them. I thought I share a few photos of her which we took a couple of weeks ago. […]helen
- New layout for my blog September 6, 2010I decided it’s time to change the blog’s theme and layout and I hope you like it. I always wanted to incorporate Bobby’s paw into my blog’s header and thanks to this new theme I found I was able to. I am still working on my new website -hence the lack of blog entries lately.

- Ukuleles August 2, 2010I am not normally a trendy person, but in March I ordered an Ohana Ukulele from Music Is Life http://www.musicislife.co.uk/ (also called the Southern Ukulele Store on Ebay) which finally arrived a few weeks ago. Ukuleles are very popular at the moment – even the Guardian has dedicated an article to a Ukulele teacher in […]helen
