at cat level

[piranha]

we got a third load of snow today, and only some of the first dump melted in between. looks like we'll have a white christmas, the first since we moved out here.

the cats are very much not happy with this state of affairs. we put the litterbox back into service.

Aoife doesn't even try to go outside when it's like this; she gives me the "well, fix it look", on the grounds that I have clearly broken the outside and should put it back, post-haste.

Hope your herd takes a good long while to get cabin fever.

Yeah, even Tinka, our Mighty Norwegian fuzzball, has not been out today. She hasn't even asked. She's been content sitting on the back of the couch watching the birds, or sleeping on whatever human will hold still.

That's so beautiful. Stay warm and snug.

Interesting. You appear to be having the same storm we're having, 3000 miles away. We got 15 inches on Friday/Saturday, and then it supposedly stopped (it slowed down to a fine steady dusting), and then we got another foot or so yesterday/last night. I think it's stopped now, but we've got moderately high wind so all of our paths (originally looking much like your above path) get quickly filled in.

Rain on Wednesday, though. It won't melt all the snow, so we'll have our white Christmas as well. It might produce a hard crust on top.

Now I have to go out and shovel a path to the duck hutch, so I can give them some thawed food and pour boiling water into their 'pond' to melt it. Yesterday they went out for an hour or so and swam in the snow. It was very amusing to watch.
