Cloudy Day

Kitties!

Johnny here.

I haz a complaint.

The sun is gone!

It's cloudy, damp, and cold, and--get this--later on it might even rain a little bit.

Southern Nevada winters are tough.

Happy Thursday!

Shivering Selfie

Kitties!

Maui here.

Last Thursday I was minding my own business, happily growing humongous armpit mats and tummy dreads...when, without any warning, this happened: 

Noodity!

Kitties, Me-n-Johnny are freezing our kiesters off without our fur coats.  The day after our grooming a cold front blew through; John's been burrowed under the bedclothes practically 24/7 and I've been camping out on the sofa in a plaid blanket tent.  However, as soon as the summer heat fires up (next week, hopefully) we'll be thrilled to be nood and the nekkid wrestling will begin!

Happy Sunday!

Sour Puss

Kitties!

Mommy harvested the limes* lemons.

what the heck?

The weatherguessers are forecasting our first cold snap of the year; possibly down to freezing!

lemons, limes...

Every year Daddy has conniptions that the fruit is gonna freeze on the tree and be spoiled, yadda yadda, yadda...Mommy is made of sterner stuff and willing to bet against the weatherman but to shut Daddy up placate him she harvested the lemons (that only she eats).

color me unimpressed.

Whatever.

We want catnip, Mommy.

Happy Friday!

*for those of you not in the know, the peeps bought the lemon tree several years ago on clearance without tags...they thought it was a lime tree until one of the fruits they neglected to pick in the fall turned YELLOW in December!

 Crazypants.

Chilly Chats

Kitties!

The Mommy here.

This was the scene on my bed last Thursday evening when I wanted to go to bed.  

It was chilly outside so the evening sleep fest had moved indoors.

I obediently went back out to the living room and sat on the sofa and read until I couldn't keep my eyes open--how could I disturb all those handsome snoozy mancats?  Scouty gives me a Reproachful Look and goes skittering out the cat flap the second I approach the bed (which scatters the rest of the gang) and since there are no other suitable places for cats in the entire house to sleep, retreat was my only option.

And then I had a brainwave: Scouty likes CATIO CHIPS! even more than the bed and his Tiny Johnson.  I rattled the cover of the jerky container and soon enough his little Ornj face was peeking around the corner to check if there were any delectable morsels on his the plate.  Chips consumed and crisis averted.

I was able to contort myself around the remaining bed whales felines and settle in for the night, and I'm almost positive I felt the little chip-eater slink onto the bed later and snuggle my leg.  He'd deny it...but it's true!

Happy Caturday!

Three in the Tree

Kitties!

In our continuing quest to remain warm* the indoor trees are experiencing an uptick in occupation, to wit:

ONE:  Grayce

TWO:  May Ling

THREE (and one half):  Salem

All together now!

Seriously, we hope all our pals in the Northern Hemisphere are keeping safe and warm.  We're purring for all the homeless peeps and animals out in the bitter weather, and we and wish every last one had a place to call home.

Happy Friday!

*last night it plummeted all the way down to 41℉ !

Keeping Cosy

Kitties!

Rupert here.

The temperatures on the Catio plummeted to a bone-chilling 73℉ today, so I was forced to employ Drastic Measures to keep warm.

Meet Drastic Measures: 

My bro, CC!

We shared the Heated Box...as well as body heat.

Between the two of us we managed to survive...

only to be assaulted by the pawpurrazzi!

sheesh.

Happy Thursday!

Floofy Formerly Feral Friday

Kitties!

Sweet Pea here.

It's freezing darn COLD on our Catio!

And windy!

We spent most of the day inside today, and only ventured out for a short time to take advantage of some sunpuddles.

This is the kind of weather that makes me very happy to be FORMERLY feral.  

We think we need an extra treat or eleven to keep up our strength to battle the cold but Mommy's not buying it.  So we've all become heaty-spot seekers instead...

...and Mommy woke up with SIX Cats on the Big Bed this morning!  There's an electric mattress pad on the bed and boy, it is totally toasty.  And guess what--Mommy left it on all day for us.  

We're gonna pile on it again tonight...and yes, I'll be under the covers!

Happy Friday!

Cat Stacking

Kitties!

For a lot of our readers it's pretty gol-danged gosh-durned nasty outside.

Winter is here in the Desert, too.  We've had ten days of icky rain (!!!), with more to come, and this weekend it's supposed to get down to freezing temperatures.

Not at all like the HOTS we prefer.

So today we thought we'd help all y'all warm up by posting a picture of four of us, stacked up, soaking in the sunbeams.

Did it help?

Happy Tuesday!
