Pictures from our Winter Album

Back Again...

We are back, after hiding and hibernating for a few months. The garden has now warmed up and is coming back to life (mice!), and we are going out on territory patrol a bit more when it is warm in the middle of the day.

In case you are wondering where we are...in front of the fire, mostly.

It is too cold to go out, although we have walked around (once, and with conditions) in the white, wet stuff so that the humans can take some photos of us. We'll put those on here soon.

White stuff

The garden is covered in white stuff...not very cat friendly white stuff. It is as deep as our legs are long and we don't like it.

We are very bored after a few days of staying in, but find that sitting on the humans' desks and computers and knocking things off shelves gets their attention quite well.

At least there is a coal fire - we'll stay in front of that until the white stuff goes away.

Happy Christmas!

It is cold, very cold, and very wet. Not cat weather at all. And the mice seem to have gone away for the winter. Or maybe they have been drowned?

We go out sometimes, but usually come home wet through. Then we shout and the humans dry us with cloths and we don't like that. We do prefer the summer.

We like this cat website -

www.simonscat.com

- which is obviously written by a human who understands cats.

Meow.

A Cat View of the Weather

There is lots of rain around, and lots of poor people have been flooded out of their homes this week, esp. in Cumbria.

Cats hate rain, but they also hate being confined to the house. Sometimes E & C go out anyway, get wet, and then come home and shout at the humans about How Wet they are and How it Needs to Stop Raining. They don't like being dried with a cloth, and would rather lie down to dry off on the humans' bed.

Last year, when there was floodwater all around The Vicarage (see picture), they watched from the window for a while, and then they went to bed and stayed there for the rest of the day. Now there's a good idea...
