KRISTIN DAVIS does a little horsing around during her annual visit to an Austrian holiday market

Kristin Davis horses around on her visit to an Austrian market.

She’s a long way from her old Manhattan stomping grounds where she spent her days as prissy Charlotte York Goldenblatt on Sex and the City, but actress Kristin Davis has traveled to Austria for the Gut Aiderbichl Christmas Market opening for the past few years in a row. This time, she got up close and personal with a miniature horse, while in past seasons she’s been photographed cuddling up with chickens and rabbits. Back home in the U.S., Kristin once adopted a pair of stray puppies who were found in Central LA. She joked that while they didn’t know any tricks, they had her “welltrained.” The mixed-breed dogs were “energetic and very attached to each other and to me,” said Kristin. They had “a keen awareness that [they had] a wonderful life now, as opposed to living on the streets and scrounging for food. I believe there is an extra element of devotion from a rescued animal.”
