Technically, it\u2019s not winter yet. Mommy says that doesn\u2019t happen until December 21. But when it\u2019s cold enough that I can feel it, even with all this fur, it\u2019s wintertime! This week, though, I figured out how I can still enjoy the sunshine on my catio while keeping my body warm in the house.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2857\" src=\"https:\/\/caroljpost.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Ziggy-in-pet-door-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/caroljpost.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Ziggy-in-pet-door-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/caroljpost.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Ziggy-in-pet-door-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/caroljpost.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Ziggy-in-pet-door-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/caroljpost.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Ziggy-in-pet-door.jpg 1530w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/>\u00a0I thought that was pretty smart. The only problem is that wherever Zorro is, he\u2019s stuck, because I take up the entire cat door.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of Zorro, Mommy and Daddy like to build fires inside the house when it gets cold. That doesn\u2019t sound very safe to me, but I guess Mommy and Daddy know what they\u2019re doing. Zorro isn\u2019t so sure, though. When there\u2019s a big fire in the fireplace and Zorro has to cross through the living room, he runs through like something is going to jump out and eat him! The noise of the fire freaks him out, too, especially when a log falls.<\/p>\n<p>He is getting a little braver, at least if the fire burns down enough. Last night, he was even sitting on the coffee table watching it.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2858\" src=\"https:\/\/caroljpost.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Zorro-at-fireplace-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/caroljpost.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Zorro-at-fireplace-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/caroljpost.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Zorro-at-fireplace-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/caroljpost.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Zorro-at-fireplace-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/caroljpost.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Zorro-at-fireplace.jpg 1530w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Our favorite way to keep warm, though, is snuggling.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2530\" src=\"https:\/\/caroljpost.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Cats-on-bed-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/caroljpost.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Cats-on-bed-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/caroljpost.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Cats-on-bed-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/caroljpost.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Cats-on-bed-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/caroljpost.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Cats-on-bed-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/caroljpost.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Cats-on-bed-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Sometimes Mommy will cover us up, which is kind of nice, too.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2859\" src=\"https:\/\/caroljpost.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Cats-under-blanket-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/caroljpost.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Cats-under-blanket-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/caroljpost.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Cats-under-blanket-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/caroljpost.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Cats-under-blanket-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/caroljpost.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Cats-under-blanket-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/caroljpost.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Cats-under-blanket.jpg 2040w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>All you kitties out there, stay warm!
