Mr. Basil said thank you for all the lovely comments.

From Benidorm to Tenerife, what a great change, you will love the island, Basil, the Canary Islands are my absolute favorites:) I'll be near you in September, in La Palma, from where I can see Tenerife!

Great to see you again Basil - you sure are living the dream!!! xoxox

Thanks Laurie for the "Poupie Chats" update. Hope that Pirate will feel better soon again. XO

Yup! I was wondering why this cat reminded me of someone. Pirate definitely has a doppelganger!

He does look a lot like Pirate! So good looking! As for Pirate's brothers and sisters, they are all fine. Pirate was not feeling well lately and the vet said he had diabetes. They have him home and right now are changing his diet and giving some medicine. Later, if needed, he might get insulin. We were worried about him this past week! ^..^

What a gorgeous and handsome boy you are !!! I've looked at your older pics, they are all marvellous. BTW Basil reminds me very much of Pirate from France, haven't seen pics of him and his brothers and sisters for a long time. Wonder how they are....

My friends bought a new house for me in Tenerife 2,000kms from my old home, with two floors of roof terraces so I have plenty of space outdoors to catch things with wings at night! Happy in my new home, a much travelled cat am I.
