Snowy snowy night . . .

Much snow has been falling in western Washington. Schools are closed. There are scattered power outages. We are OK. In fact, we seem to have less snow than everywhere else! More snow is coming. Zeke had to go out in the catio before sunrise to check things out. He comes running downstairs from his home under a bed, whenever he hears the catio window open. The catio is partially protected by the roof overhang. He loves to sit out in the weather even when it is bad. That is a trait of the Maine Coon breed. He has a big fur coat to keep him warm.

Are the deer in the woods? I am not scared of them!

I am NOT coming inside yet!

Zeke is lucky to have a cold catio where he can put his Maine Coon furryness to good use. With my allergies and hairloss issues, the vet said my fur might grow back faster if I were in cold weather, but I’d rather stay inside and lounge on the heater vent!

  I think it is good they can get fresh air and experience the weather. When the weather is bad they look at me like it is my fault.

Zeke is a cutie, he is lucky to have a safe place to go outside. I hope you don’t lose power.

  Gone and back again. Tree and shrub damage but nothing serious.

Makes me freeze just looking at it.

Cute pictures.

My coon cats will do the same thing, but when it’s 50 outside they fight over the human’s lap. I’m 109 pounds. They’re 20 pounds apiece. It isn’t pretty. 🙂

  Zeke is a lightweight–all fur. You’re up early as it is still dark here. Oh, no, you really aren’t are you?

    I’m in Eastern time zone. When I visit my sister in California, I have to get used to the fact that 9:00am here is 6:00am there. It takes a while to get used to the time difference. 🙂

      The US revolves around Eastern Standard time.

        Unfortunately, my body seems better suited for Pacific time. Have no idea why. 🙂

        You like to sleep in later, or is it get up earlier–now I am confused!

        When in California, I’m asleep around 10 or 11 and up around 6. At home, my eyes boing open around 2 or 3. It puts a cramp into the day. 🙂
