@lin Cat's looking very bloody pissed off.

@lin SO MANY QUESTIONS.

@lin The cat in the rightmost picture is giving the picture-taker some classic cat side-eye. Kitty is very much not amused by things. Someone’s going to be waking up to a dead mouse at the end of the bed.

@lin Wonder if he came from a Kiwi Sailing family. Some families cruise with their pets.

@lin you may want to add #Caturday or the French version #Chamedi

@lin poke @georgepenney, do you know of any missing cat belonging to NZ people from Aotearoa currently in France?

Can't a cat do a little genealogical research without causing an international incident?!? https://nzhistory.govt.nz/media/photo/new-zealand-tunnellers-mascot-snowy-cat

You know, not everyone knows this, and many cats don't like doing it; but cats can swim.

Give new meaning to letting the cat out of the bag

Isn't it required to file some paperwork when travelling with a pet?

@marilyn You just reminded me Peter and Torty, the WWI survivors came to live in NZ https://nzhistory.govt.nz/media/video/gallipoli-tortoise-great-war-story

@lin
Hmm.. Did the cat disappear, or did it just take up retirement in France?

[yannnsud@piaille.fr]

@lin @Souristine I’ve read about pets travelling by plane being lost in French airports. They travel with luggage, which is often handled without much care. And sometimes the box in which the cat travel breaks, and the cat escapes.
Antony is next to Orly, one of the two main Paris airports. Thought most international flights land in Roissy CDG, several tenths of km north, with Paris in the middle.
