This survey, realized with approximately 400 members of the community BlogPaws, shows how and how much our humans spend for us for the holidays. We know that Claire and Momo ordered presents for us on the Internet, as 44 % of the surveyed people. We don’t know how much they spent of course, but they certainly have to be in the average !

We also sent our greeting cards (62 % of the surveyed bloggers do it in the name of their pet), but we don’t dress up for Christmas, contrary to 69 % of our friends.

And you, if you celebrate Christmas, how far have you come with your preparations ? Did your human plan presents for you ?

When virtual becomes real

blogpaws sept2105The best part of the blogging is when you can meet offline people you got acquainted online and who you like.

Claire had the pleasure to spend Tuesday afternoon with the adorable Chloe who was on holidays in Switzerland with three members of her family, all very nice also.

How do we know that Chloe is adorable ? Read more, you’ll see.

They visited together the Castle of Chillon, a magnificent castle which is by the Lake of Geneva very close to Montreux. This pleasant bonding time still went on around a table ; Claire is very proud to have understood what her American friends told her, and especially that they understood what she tried to tell them !

Our human then took back Chloe by car at the station of Montreux, because she had told her that she had something for us in her suitcase…

The best part of on-line friendships is when they become beautiful offline stories.
