The Red Man and all of his family at Casa de Canterbury were horrified to learn of the tragedy in Paris. We grieve with the French for the senseless slaughter of people in the places they went for relaxation and entertainment on a regular Friday night after work.
We are especially concerned for our cyberspace friend Annie and her Animal Couriers who are from France and who have been followers of ours since The Red Man began his rants. Annie and her Couriers transport large numbers of passengers every day all over Europe. From rabbits to birds to turtles to cats to dogs – any animal with a family need to get from one place to another – all are safeguarded and given excellent care on their journeys. The stories are wonderful, and the pictures of their cargo are always awesome. On the Road with Animal Couriers is a blog that has been a Friend of Red forever.
Our hearts are heavy for them this morning, and we wish them safe travels as they continue their business of carrying precious passengers from one home to another.
Casa de Canterbury stands with our friends Annie and her Couriers and the people of France today as they struggle to cope with the crimes against humanity that happened in their capital city overnight. We know they will recover, but we understand and share the feelings of grief and anger they have today.
Bless you all.
The Red Man sends Paw Snaps to you today for the courage he knows you will have to persevere in the midst of this crisis, but he is too sad to send Twirls.
Red's Rants and Raves 
We can only echo, “Bless you all,” because our family is speechless in the face of such sickness.
Much love and many hugs!!!

So very sad. I’ve tried to think of words to say, but there are no words in the English language that fully express my feelings of horror and disgust. I just know I feel sick and so do many others in the world, but unfortunately that is the goal of those who cause terror and chaos. Love and strength to the people of France xxx

I am saddened about the bombings and really wish we could do more. Glad some are in custody who are guilty of bombing. Maybe all, one never knows. France has had my ♡ heartfelt prayers. We need to stand up against these violent and tragic happenings. As we went to see a cute movie, I did not feel guilty. I told my friend who went with us, “By not moving forward, we allow their actions to “win.” Hugs to one and all, Robin
