Sigh... Dulce Mae is upset with me over the sub-freezing wet and icy
weather.

I tell her it is way too yucky out for a pretty princesss, and she
demands that I make it stop.

At  least she is lying on the newspaper, and close at hand for
admiring skritches, so I'm not in too much trouble.

Hugs and Purrs,

I was at first blamed by all 7 owners for the cold snow and wind but now
they have settled into the idea that it's OK to stay in the house by the
heater. In fact I have a pile of cats next to me which includes Eli, Tommy,
Beatrice, Baby Eyes and Abelard. I guess Billy & Lily are snuggled together
in the other room.

LOL! Reminds me of Isis, in very hot weather she used to come and
complain at me. I think what she was thinking was "When it is cold you
turn the thing on that makes it not cold. So surely you can make it not
so hot?"

I still chuckle everytime I think about what Frank must think about bad
weather/rain. He used to beg to go out, then I'd open the door--he'd
sniff and back up. Then he'd run to the *back* door and act quite
disgusted that it was raining in that "out" also.

That's so funny because Boyfie does this too!  He seems to like to go in and
out quite often when the doors are shut.  It seems to be a "must check round
my territory" thing.
He is appalled if he asks to go out of the back door (both cats normally
exit through this door) and finds out it's pouring with rain.  He will then
change his mind.   Two minutes later he will present himself at the front
door and ask for out to see if it's nicer out of that door ;-)
Aww, you should see his face when he discovers it's raining out there too.
He stares up into my face and meows.  He thinks I can fix everything.
As Kitty only stirs from her beanbag beside the fire during bad weather  a)
when it's mealtime  b) when she is bursting to go to the toilet  it doesn't
affect her too much.
As for b) if it proves to be raining she has been known to come straight
back inside and disappear behind the woodburner..
<sigh>

As I've mentioned before, John D. Macdonald, in his book about
his pets, "The House Guests," tells the story of one of his cats
who actually pulled off the trick one day in Florida.  He
describes the smug look the cat gave him when it turned out that
it actually wasn't raining outside the second door.

Wow - someone should tell Robert Heinlein about that. :)

I get the same story from my cats. It's to cold for them to go onto the
enclosed porch and they think I can fix it.
