Howdy, my name is Prince (AID 189205). This may sound corny (excuse me), but I’m the Prince Charming you’ve been looking for. I’m an older gentleman and tend to look a little grumpy, but I promise I’m always smiling on the inside, and you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover, right? 🐱
Like most Siamese cats, I love attention and I enjoy a good intellectual chat with like-minded people. I’m affectionate and smart, and I’ve had my fair share of life experiences (good and bad), but now I’m ready to soak up my golden years in a loving home. 💙💚
As my name suggests, I’m royalty! Therefore, I would love a home where I’m your only fur-companion, so I don’t have to share the throne (your lap). 👑🐾
Health checked, desexed and microchipped, I’m perfectly adoptable!

Thinking of our wonderful experiences and all those who made us so welcome, on tour in Zambia!

The home of Leonardo da Vinci - he left Italy and settled here in Amboise, close to the castle of his friend and patron, the French king. A ‘must visit’ in the Loire Valley.

Château de Chenonceau 🏰
France 🇫🇷
• The Château de Chenonceau is a French château spanning the River Cher, near the small village of Chenonceaux in the Indre-et-Loire département of the Loire Valley in France. It is one of the best-known châteaux of the Loire valley.
The estate of Chenonceau is first mentioned in writing in the 11th century. The current château was built in 1514–1522 on the foundations of an old mill and was later extended to span the river. The bridge over the river was built (1556-1559) to designs by the French Renaissance architect Philibert de l'Orme, and the gallery on the bridge, built from 1570–1576 to designs by Jean Bullant.

Our ‘France - Original’ tour in October visits this stunning villa and its gardens. Each garden has a theme and if you’re lucky, music will play in time with the fountains!
2024 vient célébrer un double anniversaire : les 160 ans de la naissance de la baronne Béatrice Ephrussi de Rothschild, et les 90 du legs de sa villa et de ses collections à l’Académie des beaux-arts.
À cette célébration, nous ajoutons l’honneur d’avoir été sélectionnés comme l’un des 2 monuments de la région Sud à pouvoir concourir au programme prestigieux du Monument préféré des Français.
Nous vous invitons donc d’ici le vendredi 24 mai minuit à vous connecter via le lien suivant :

Pour ajouter votre vote, et ainsi œuvrer à défendre et à mettre en avant - au travers de la Villa et de ses jardins - le patrimoine architectural français.

👩🚀🇦🇺 Congratulations to Katherine Bennell-Pegg who has just graduated to become the first qualified astronaut under the Australian flag.
She beat 22,500 other applicants to qualify for training, and graduated with only 5 others. With a double degree in Engineering and Science the 39-year-old is the Director of Space Technology at the Australian Space Agency in Adelaide, plus she’s a mother of two. What an inspiration for girls to consider Engineering, which is still an area under-represented by females.
