How about this....instead of making a gallon block of ice how abotu getting a large plastic container and making that into a really good size block of ice...it would last much longer than the gallon would. I make ice blocks for when we go camping and even though they are in a cooler....they last much longer than the gallon would.

What about taking a good size block of ice and placing it in plastic bags/sacks that you would get from the grocery stores and placing them in the shade to let the kitties lay up against if they get really warm.

Is there any shade that the kitties have access to?

I'm still thinking....so I may have another post or two for you.

By the way I'll take DRY over HUMID any day!!!! There is something about 90 degrees with 100% humidity compared to 90 degrees with no humidity. I guess it can be summed up this way....

90 degrees with humidity is like getting out of a shower and taking the towel to dry yourself off, and before you get your clean clothes on....your sopping wet like you just got out of the shower again EXCEPT the water is your sweat!!! YUCK!!! - Meg
