We are living
in Ahldorf - a part of the township of Horb - at the edge of the valley of the
Neckar. Horb
is a part of the administrative district of
Freudenstadt, near to the black forest.

The black forest is a rather big region in the south-west of Germany that reach from Karlsruhe in the north near to Basel in the south - and from the valley of the Rhein (the border to France) until to the river Neckar and the beginning of the Schwäbische Alb at the east side.
This unique
place (big coniferous forest, rather endurable temperatures
during the summertime - but a lot of snow and really
cold weather during the wintermonths) inspired us to
our cattery-name:
In
the "Edda" the meaning of the word "Myrkwid" is getting
translated
with:
"Dark Forest"
"Black Forest"
