7:30 PM (EST), it is -7 F

They are saying it is the coldest it has been in 50 years, and we may set
an
all time record low (old record -47 F ) on top of Mount Washington
(NH-USA).
It was over -100 with wind chill yesterday on Mt. Washington. It actually
felt warm at 2 F getting the newspaper this morning.

Egbert is really handsome! What color are his eyes IRL? They come out gold
in the pictures, so cool!

While enjoying the Evil 3 as furry meatloaves warming the bed, I think often
of the furry meatloaves of the north, homeless and needing to find a warm
place to survive the night outdoors. As Sherry says, may Bast take pity on
her own and show them shelter in this cold spell going on in northern USA.


I started feeding Lacey Bug a year ago today. I remember days, before she
allowed me to bring her inside, when she would come to the bowl to eat and her
entire body was shaking from the cold. While it isn't terribly cold here at the
moment I am so thankful that she is inside this year. Like you I worry about the
other homeless animals that don't have a warm bed at night or regular food to
keep them warm.

Moose usually accompanies me outside to have a cigarette (must protect me
from terrorist squirrels and the like) but last night she decided it was
too
cold and refused to protect me on my nicotine break. She's become a
subterranean Moose of late, crawling under the blankets to sleep with us!
She thinks she's a cat.

How's the weather where you are?

When will it be too cold for *you* to go out for a nicotine break?

They are not gold like you see in Persians. But they are not quite yellow
either. I would call them a "light gold" (only 10 karat instead of 24) with
a hint of yellow/green.

Hard to believe he is over 14 years old.

Hi all. It's too cold here! Right now it's -1F with expected high of
4F
changing to -5 by early evening. Not to mention the flurries and lake
effect
snow. SIGH. I was supposed to work today but called the boss and requested
a jail break, which he summarily approved!

Now onto topic.

With the onslaught of cold weather the furry blankets are brought out,
much
to the cats' delight. I can't sit in my chair without Patrick and Nancy
on
my lap with Moogie at my feet on the end of the recliner. Mr. Bob even
came
over and slept on top of my chair, trying to decide if he was cold enough
to
snuggle with the other cats.

The National Weather Service has issued a wind chill warning for later
today,
tonight and tomorrow morning around these parts (Western Mass.). We will
be
feeling the wind to the tune of 40 below zero F!! I cannot imagine what
that
feels like, nor do I *want* to. All I can say is, if the SO doesn't want
to
drive me right to the door of my building tomorrow morning (6:00 AM), I'm
not
going to work. The four minute walk from where I park to where I work
will be
enough to freeze my frickin' lungs!

I want to be my cat - he's got heated beds in two rooms, full food & water,
and
a hoomin home to cuddle with him most of the day. It just ain't fair.

Hi all I'm also in Mass. it was -7 this AM. All the schools are closed because
its too cold for children to wait for the Bus.

Norway is very much like New England, it seems, except Norwegians couldn't
care less about Red Sox.
Hell freezes over. Norway wins Soccer WC.

All right, all right! It was meant as a joke, but on the other hand:
Comments like your's is what makes me have to do such things... grin

On cold days like this I can do anything to keep me warm, laughing is one of
them. You should try it some time, too...
