Christmas is gone. Hogmanay is near.. My Masters, and I, Frimousse, and my friend RouXy, we wish that the year to come will be better than the one that finishes. For all of you, as for us.”

“Christmas and New Year are behind. Children are back to school this morning. Of course, there is still the epiphany cake to eat but if Christmas decorations are still in place, they’re just waiting to be put away. The Christmas tree does not lose many needles yet, RouXy’s Master cut it when the Moon was right. Still no snow here.
My friend RouXy gives us a lot of concern. My Master does all that he can to feed him and prevent him from vomiting but he does not gain weight. And he seems weaker and weaker. When he goes upstairs, what he would do in one breath, he stops one or two times, three times yesterday … My Master is going to take him to my doctor. But everybody is afraid of what she will say. He is so happy to live, my friend! Lying by my side on the large bed upstairs at the beginning of the evening or around the neck of my Master sitting in the armchair during the day, he purrs and purrs and purrs…
Happy New Year to all the visitors of Frimousse Blog.”
That was his first message for 2017.

This Monday morning, it is snowing. A gentle and fine snow, which the wind is playing with. The road is white but it isn’t slippery. Frimousse would have loved running in the snow and in the wind, and then coming to keep me company, on his armchair, with his head raised. RouXy would be spread on the low table in front of the stove…
This is the last post on Frimousse Blog for the year 2017.Merry Christmas to all of you! Next year will just be another year…
Merry Christmas to you and your wife as well. We are to have a mild week and melt the snow that came last week, but may have more snow for Christmas. I wish you a peaceful season, and good memories – I will spend some time with mine as well.
Thank you for your message. Snow here at the moment and rather cold. But the forecast is “temperatures above seasonal average” next week.
Christamas Day with my son, my daughter in law and my two grand children. Ney Year Day and Hogmaney, with friends. Have a pleasant time.
Merry Christmas to you and yours and may the new year be a bit brighter. Thanks so much for sharing Frimousse and Rouxy and the cats and dogs over the past years! We look forward more in the future
