Introduction

We're a couple with two cats living in the French Alps, where we enjoy everything the mountains have to offer as well as voyages farther afield. We have lived across Asia, Africa, Europe and the Americas and often find ourselves traveling

Responsibilities

Dido and Aeneas eat twice a day, and unfortunately Aeneas is a greedy little monster and he will eat Dido's food if you don't watch out. So they need supervision (and eat in different rooms). Also, they will overeat if you leave food out
