A lot has happened since the last issue in March. The corona virus forced us to stay indoors, wear masks and practice social distancing – and what did the team and I do to help you through this difficult time? Sod all – my apologies! But we had...

Researchers found that home office workers actually work more than normal office staff. No wonder, they are not subject to distractions like gossip in the company kitchen or they overcompensate the time they have to take care of their kids by working odd hours –...

We live in strange and difficult times – all over the world! Who would have thought that such a miniscule pointy thingy could wipe out social life and turn people into loo paper addicts? But there is hope – in the shape of our pets. I know the...

This year not all is going according to plan. As you could see in January, I had every intention to publish more but something always kept me from it – and I have still so much to tell you from last year! But not today, as today is a special day. It is the day...

Congratulations, Susette, Constanze and Sonia, you got it! Though you, Sonia, are only half right. But I will disregard you mentioning basil as you probably were only hungry. 😉 Isfrid is indeed a parsley fan as you can see for yourselves. Die...

Happy 2020! Stop smoking. Eat more greens. Exercise regularly. How about your new year’s resolutions? Isfrid decided to eat more greens but she is of course not nibbling at the Christmas tree. But which of the following garden herbs does she like? a)...

Excellent! Susette and Tamara, you have not lost your magic touch and got it absolutely right! As you can see above, Sander climbed the little maple tree from behind and has now reached the top – king of the tree so to speak. ————...

Let’s rekindle an old tradition! This image may be from last month but rest assured, dear readers, you would not like to see images of today’s wet leaves and pouring rain while in November everything still was rather colourful. Now to the question....

We are back!! And what do you think? Have you checked out our new homepage yet? It now contains a slider with the most recent posts, introduces the team and features a quote of a famour (or not so famous) cat lover. A look at the team lineup will probably make you...

Countdown to Christmas – Days 12 – 8 Sonia was right! Wanting to publish a blog every day was way too ambitious, particularly before Christmas. But in our review of 2018, July, August and September have become one overheated blurr in my mind anyway. Our...

Countdown to Christmas – Day 13 Welcome to the second part of June! What you see above is a polyresin cat my friend Kasia gave me for my birthday last year – and it is a scarecrow. Not that it would scare our resident crows Odin and Freya but I had the...

Countdown to Christmas – Day 14 We have reached the beginning of June. While I am still waiting for the perfect moment to catch Maxine, nature decides to interfere. On June 2nd the bump that turned out to be an abscess bursts open and Maxine seems relieved. She...

Countdown to Christmas – Day 15 We are still in May. It is still warm and humid. And apart from preparing Joschi’s meals and force-feeding him several times a day, I have so much work to do that I have not even found the time to take photos – and...

Countdown to Christmas – Day 16 Welcome to May 2018. As you know, all I managed to publish in May was the birthday blog for Marvi, Islay and Isfrid. Even though I had already collected the photos I was not able to congratulate Sander, Mrs. Peel and their...

Countdown to Christmas – Day 17 Now to the things that happened last April that you don’t know yet: The medically trained eye of my sister thought that Maxine’s face looked swollen. Was there really a bump on her right cheek? I could not detect...

Countdown to Christmas – Day 18 Welcome to April in our review of 2018! It was too warm for the time of year – again. The weeds were growing faster than the tulips and I broke my foot. Plus, we celebrated the birthdays of Mira and Marvi at the end of the...

Countdown to Christmas – Day 19 When humans separate animals normally suffer. The shelters are full of dogs and cats that turned into „orphans of divorce“ because one partner left and the other is no longer willing or capable to take care of the...

Countdown to Christmas – Day 20 Today we take a first look at March and when you look at the blog, you don’t see much. The weather was nice and unseasonably warm. The cranes were already flying north and the bumble bees all collapsed into the crocuses...

Countdown to Christmas – Day 21 What else happened in February? Thankfully not much. We were all looking forward to spring and enjoying the garden but it began to transpire that my workload would increase this year. I was only able to publish 8 issues – an...
