But then we found the
Tierheim in Weil am Rhein and this little creature.
He was just about 8 weeks old. We had him tested for Feline Leukemia and he is healthy.
|
 |
On the 16th of July, when all work was completed we took him to the Avanti B.
One of his passions is eating!
|
 |
An other is playing ...
|
 |
How do I look in Thomas' police hat?
|
 |
One of his favorite toys - a (large) duck. It is so great to chew on it! Sometimes he runs around
the ship with the duck in his mouth. Now he is taller, but first the duck had nearly his size.
|
 |
Since people seem to talk in many languages to him he is studying his French.
So what is his name?
The Tierheim had named him Benny, which we
didn't like. So we thought about other names:
- Hopi - since he 'hops' around like a
rabbit
- Mistral - too close to Racine
- Bitnava - you find out what it means
But we finally decided to name him Pikesh.
Pikesh is short for Piz Kesch.
Piz Kesch is a mountain in the Swiss Alps, 3418 meters high. But Piz
Kesch is also the name of a Rhein-Ship that more than once tied up on our
side while we were in Weil.

Notice the right paw bigger than the left paw? He wasn't quite sure if a Wasp was something to
play with or to run away from. So the wasp stung and Pikesh had to go to the Vet to get a
cortisone shot.
Is it just a coincidence that Pikesh
was borne on the 20th of April? Remember this is
Thomas' birthday and the
day we left Beaucaire this spring?
