The good doctors of the hospital saved Momo’s life after his terrible accident ; the path is going to be long, but he recovers little by little. There is a lot of snow, and Pixie discovers this white, wet, and cold powder, for the first time : she does not really like it !

February
After trois months at the hospital, Momo is transferred to the rehabilitation clinic and can come home during the weekends. Zorro celebrates his second Gotcha Day.

March
Pixie celebrates her 1st birthday.

April
After one and a half month at the clinic, Momo can definitively come back home in the middle of April : it’s a pawty ! Our blog is three years old.

May
Pouring rains beat down on French-speaking Switzerland. There are big damages in several places and near us, but fortunately we are spared. Thanks to MailChimp, we finally find out how to send our newsletter in the language of your choice. Momo progresses, and he can resume a professional activity one to two hours a day. It is also Pixie’s first Gotcha Day. Time flies !

June
Summer comes and it’s hot. Very hot.

July
Momo undergoes a nth operation to remove the plates which he has in wrists, and everything goes well. There is a heatwave, and all the ways are good to refresh us, even playing in the water.

August
Zorro celebrates his 3rd birthday.

September
The best part of the blogging is when you can meet offline people you got acquainted online : Claire spends a fantastic day with Chloe, who arrives quite straight ahead from the USA.

October
Claire moves in a new college, and she is very put under stress, because she also takes care of all which is IT. There is some delay in the works there, she thus dedicates her holidays to tidy up, to connect cables, to transport computers, and neglects our blog. She resumes her class completely exhausted after these two weeks, and everything is not ready by far in the IT domain.

November
And it starts all over again : undoubtedly, we are still pursued by bad luck ! While he’s still recovering from his car accident, Momo has an occupational accident. Result : triple fracture in the foot (the one that had not been injured in the previous accident of course).

December
We are submerged by traditional greeting cards or by e-mail : Claire and Momo are a little bit jealous, because we have twenty times more cards than them !

    Wow, you two have had a busy year.

    And you are more efficient than us. Thank you for our Christmas Card – we didn’t send any this year.

    Fanta, Percy, the humans and I all hope your next year is exciting and fun, but that you don’t get Momo broken again.

  5. Raven

    You have had lots of ups and downs this year. Hopefully next year will be all good news and no more accidents for Momo, not even a broken fingernail!

  6. Sammy

    Oh we do hope that 2016 brings better luck to all of you!!! Sounds like a tough and busy year with lots of challenges so here’s to a happier, healthier, and accident-free 2016!!!

    Seems like you had a very busy and troubled year – I only discovered your blog by the middle of 2015 and I wasn’t aware of how much it has happened to you. I hope 2016 brings you lots of luck, health, love and joy. Have a blessed New Year!

    Happy New Year Claire, Momo, Zoro and Pixie!

    Momo, if you were a cat, you would have used up a few of your nine lives in the last year alone! Which means all your remaining lives will be filled with good health, good luck, good love, good joy, and a general abundance of good things all around !

    May 2016 be your best year yet Claire and Momo!

    your pals,
    the critters in the cottage and their Mama Sophie xo

    You have had quite the year! I’m so glad that Momo is doing well despite his accident. That was really scary! I remember reading about it on Facebook. I hope that 2016 brings even bigger and better things for all of you! 🙂

    Hei

    Is this your latest post in English? When I get on your page, it’s automatically displayed in French. When click on the English flag, I’m directed to this post, as well as when I click “Home”. You also link to this post on your comment at our blog.

    I was just wondering as the French post seems to be something else. Don’t worry if you didn’t have the time to blog in English, I just wanted to let you know in case this is a technical problem. <3
