No, you can't get one like her...unless you fit her with snowshoes and/or skiis.

Snowshoes it is. I almost got Nubians, but I was told they were rubbish in cold, so I scratched that idea. Hi, whites!

Hi, bubbles!
Why rubbish? Frostbitten ears?
I had Nubians. We obviously don't get the temps you do, I never had any problems. Ever wonder why animals' ears are so prone to bleeding from scratches, and so hard to stop? 'Cause the blood vessels & veins are so close to the surface, and so numerous. They keep blood flowing through the ears to warm them. As long as they ears don't get wet for long in extreme cold, I wouldn't think they'd be easily frostbitten.

Just not as hardy is what I was told. I'm aware of that, but that doesn't help much when the temperatures haven't scratched zero in two weeks. I'm not exaggerating, either!

I'm sure they'd be just fine in your weather.

Your thermometers must be frozen; that's insane!!

Don't worry, that was last winter. It's warmer right now. Only goes down to zero during nights.

Oh, Goody!
Maybe you need to move to "The Land of the Midnight Sun"
