Baby, it's cold outside!

Its odd that theNorthern Parts ofor countries have had mild weather, while the West has had severe weather.

You're right about the weather. i'm in Pennsylvania, above Philadelphia, and it's just been rainy and warm. I'm totally ticked off!! I want snow!!! We get snow days off at school (I'm a teacher), and if we don't use them, we lose them! So not fair, lol. I just love getting that phone call at 5am, telling me we're off, and then I can go back to sleep happily!

By the way, this picture is fantastic! Gary, you take some of the most awesome pics of your kitties!!!

Edwina and Eddie,
You have it made. At least your purrents turn on the heater for you. Our meowmie won't even do that. She just wears extra clothes to stay warm and expects us to deal with it. Luckily we live in a condo in between floors so it's warmer than a big cold house. We try to stay in meowmies bedroom because it's warmer in there and most of us have been sleeping with her at night. We hope it warms up soon.

Here in Oregon we have weather that's below freezing! Which hardly ever happens, really. We've had snow on the ground for over a week now, when a few years ago we would have been lucky to have a few flakes for one day.
I mean, an inch of snow would cancel school and even a lot of stores around here! We now have nearly three inches (which is a HUGE amount here) and it's not going away!

...not that I'm complaining, though ^^

Echo has been busy burrowing underneath blankets and rugs when we have the heat down (we put it down to 60 to save on energy and gas bills) and Clover has taken a liking to my dad, since his room is the warmest in the house.

Edwina looks beautiful so elegant in her cozy blankets! I wish I were her, lucky lady!

Aw Miss Edwina it's no fun being cold no matter what the temperature its. Cold is hard on joints and delicate pawsies!!! You look fetching as always!!!

(psst: my 4 cats would love to come visit. It's going to be 6 here tonight with a wind chill of 10 below)

Something tells me we have become a true California girl, Edwina. What happened to the grit and gumption it took to live in Chicago? {sigh}

That cold snap in California has hit us here in Arizona too! We are fffffrrrrreeeezzzzziiiinnnnggggg!!!!! Burrrrrrrrrrr


Last night it was a "hard freeze" which means it was down to 22 degrees for several hours!

I think I might have known exactly when that occured........Fluffy was in his usual spot, in between mommy & daddy, Lucky was tucked tightly under mommy's right arm, and Yoshi - who unusally sleeps either on my feet or under my right arm, was wrapped tightly around my - HEAD!!!!! When I woke up, my "hat" moved and my hair was moist, but warm!! Had to move the crew so I could get up and, um, pee . But when all was done I returned to bed, and everyone resumed their position!!

Never had a cat hat before!!
