Animaux de compagnie

______________________

Qu’on les aime ou qu’ils nous agacent, nos amis à poils et à plumes n’ont pas moins le droit de vivre

en ville. Rien n’est trop beau pour nos chers compagnons et voici quelques exemples.

Le violoncelliste américain David Teie a composé, après deux ans de recherche sur les sons et les

mélodies, une œuvre pour les chats. L’orchestre national a interprété cette musique « apaisante et

relaxante » pour les félins qui devraient miauler de plaisir! Pourquoi donc ne pas offrir un CD à son

chat?

Les chiens ont eux aussi le droit de prendre quelques jours de vacances. A Paris, il y a un hôtel canin

qui accueille courtes et longues pattes dans de vraies chambres douillettes à partir de trente-huit euros

la nuit. Pendant la journée, des promenades sont organisées dans les bois. Une équipe prend en

considération les besoins de chacun et crée des groupes selon l’âge et l’état de santé de chaque

chien.

Les hôtels cinq étoiles de la capitale sont à leur tour prêts à garantir le bien-être de leurs clients, quatre

pattes inclus. Ainsi, un hôtel célèbre, non content de gâter ses deux chats qui déambulent dans les

couloirs, propose-t-il un kit de bienvenue pour les chiens de ses hôtes, contenant une bouteille d’eau

minérale, des friandises en forme d’os et un tapis brodé au nom de l’animal.

Promenade à vélo le long de la Loire

_______________________________

Ce n’est pas par hasard que de nombreux rois ont choisi les rives de ce fleuve pour y bâtir leurs

châteaux : Léonard de Vinci a, lui aussi, séjourné sur les bords de la Loire à la demande du roi François

1er.

Le long du fleuve, il y a une piste cyclable de plus de neuf cents kilomètres de long qui va de sa source

à son embouchure, sur l’océan Atlantique.

Bien sûr, mon copain et moi n’avons pas fait tout le parcours, mais seulement une quinzaine de

kilomètres.

La Loire n’est pas navigable, car elle est trop dangereuse. Il y a beaucoup de bancs de sable et de

courants, ce qui en fait le repaire idéal de nombreux oiseaux et d’animaux de rivière. C’est aussi le

paradis des pêcheurs.

Cette fois-ci, nous avons eu une très bonne surprise. Nous étions à la fin du mois d’août, ce qui

correspond à la période de migration des canards sauvages. Ils quittent le nord de l’Europe et traversent

la France pour rejoindre les régions plus chaudes du sud.

Pendant notre balade, des centaines d’oiseaux ont volé au-dessus de nous, par vagues successives en

formant un V caractéristique. On aurait dit la parade aérienne du 14 juillet! Quel spectacle inattendu et

magnifique!

MAÎTRE GIMS-RAPPEUR FRANÇAIS ____________________________________________

Source: https://www.google.com/search?q=Maitre+Gims&safe

« Je suis arrivé en France de la République du Congo à l’âge de deux ans, explique-t-il dans sa

biographie, parue en 2015. Mon père était chanteur dans un groupe, une vedette en Afrique. Mais en

France, il n’a pas connu le succès. Mes parents étaient au chômage ou faisaient de petits boulots pour

survivre. »

« Mon enfance n’a pas été simple. Parfois, je passais des nuits dans la rue, et là on voit toutes sortes de

choses et j’ai failli tomber dans la drogue et la violence. Mais je suis resté rêveur ». Musique, dessin,

écriture : voilà ce qui l’a sauvé.

A vingt-deux ans, il connaît le succès en tant que leader d’un groupe de rap dont les membres se sont

rencontrés au collège. Trois ans plus tard, son premier album solo Subliminal est double disque de

diamant.

Marié très jeune, père de famille, le chanteur s’est converti à l’Islam en 2004 comme sa femme. Il a

arrêté de boire de l’alcool; il ne fume plus.

S’il a vécu une enfance particulièrement difficile, Maître Gims est heureux de pouvoir offrir une autre vie

à ses quatre enfants. Cependant, le chanteur se défend de leur offrir absolument tout. « Mes enfants ne

sont pas habillés en Gucci ou Prada et portent souvent des vêtements achetés au marché. L’humilité est

une des qualités auxquelles j’accorde le plus de prix. »
