    I followed Henri back when he made his debut. I would watch for new episodes and share them with my daughter. I recently thought about him and didn’t realize it had been that long. Somehow I remembered the name. I see there were additional segments made. I know you must miss him very much. But you have these glimpses of him! I wish I had videos of all my cats! Thank you and Henri for sharing your story and Henri’s ennui.

    The entire video is hysterical. I like the part where Henri is sitting on the bathroom scale and wondering why he feels nothing yet his caretakers step on it and they become irrate! Another favorite part is when Henri states"I alone feel this torment." And I'll never understand how Mr. Braden captures Henri turning his head at 1:30.

    Why have I not known of Henri till yesterday?! Compared to everyone else, it seems so late - but as Henri would say, time does not matter. This makes me re-appreciate the French films I used to watch in the 60s, and Sartre and Camus, as well! His "voice" is rich with meaning, the French language only makes it that much better. I love these, have watched all I've been able to since yesterday. Bought the book as well. Henri, vous êtes vraiment genial. Et pas ennuyeux du tout!

    Je t'adore Henri!
