We’ve survived another week in Catland. It’s chilly outside (low 30s), so the inside cats are hugging registers and finding other warm places to snuggle. We humans have been challenged to keep the temperature in the house balanced. The downstairs heat pump is particularly problematic. The thermostat is in the … Continue reading →
If there’s a high place, Daphne will find a way to reach it. Mr. L brought a ladder inside so I could change a few light bulbs. He left it sitting in the parlor. It didn’t take long before this happened: It took her a little bit to figure out … Continue reading →
