We got about 4 inches of snow out of the storm. It half melted off today, but the winds were pretty cold. Felt like back down into the teens for wind chills. Back to 50's by the weekend.

We got tons of rain out of it but it is warm here. Maybe it met up with another storm or something lol

It’s funny that all the others except him enjoy being brushed! What color is Floki? He sounds delightful (except for when you get the brush out ) I would love to see a picture!

Oh he is a total turd when the brush comes out! They were not planned additions to the family. My friend knew I had wanted another orange cat since 2004 when I lost my last one. She made it her mission to find me one. Well you can't have just one! She called me and told me she found two and was bringing them home. One was not in very good shape but she couldn't leave them there. They were in a rabbit hutch in 105 degree temp. So we took them, Floki was very weak and his breathing was labored. The vet said he had a 50/50 chance. I honestly expected to lose him the first night. But he pulled through and now he is a toad. He is nearly 26 pounds of cat. The picture with the two is Floki & his sister Kenzi

that’s amazing!!! Love all the names! My dad calls our Leghorn The Colonel lol

We are a whacky bunch! All the animals have names & at least two nicknames that they all respond too. My hubby started calling me mama hen yesterday because the chicks were following me around and jockeying for position for attention. The horses nicker when I come out of the house, my dog can't even let me go to the bathroom alone, well neither can the damn cat.

Ohhhhhh boyyyyyyy!!!!

And oh wow you have lot of animals!!! I would love horses but not feasible atm. I do have a cat though and of course the fish, budgies, and chickens, which are awesome, but I want a dog. Used to have one but lost him almost a little over a year ago. I can visit my brother’s 3 dogs but not quite the same.

I'm sorry to hear about your dog! It is so hard when we lose them. My Jessie Mae is 10 & Nova is 12. I wish they were still pups!
We seem to collect animals. Most of them are rescues.

I used to think Luna was a Norwegian Forest Cat lol she looked just like one when little (at least one picture I saw of one) and loved playing with water. She was tiny but we had read they were related to Maine coons and could take up to 4 or 5 years to grow so we were super excited. Yeah..... no. she is a runt or something LOL

And she also HATES being brushed. Idk why.

She is a lover though and won’t use her claws. Just yells a lot. she has to be held still to brush her. And she will be okay at first but still mad but then she starts yelling and will get progressively louder and louder and will eventually try to back away or wiggle away and if none of that works, she will slap you or bite and eventually claws. But all of those are last resorts. Usually when she starts getting antsy and wiggly, I just let her go to avoid injury to myself.

Trade ya! Floki starts with claws, then complains, then starts biting, hissing & growling! I knew he was going to be a long hair so I started brushing him when he had recovered fully at about 8 weeks. He hated it then!

You can promptly keep that snow! I don't want anymore this year!
