Nasty Texas weather...



No, that's not a small people porch, that'd be to the right a bit. This is the puppy porch to the doggie door, which, thankfully, none of the five inside and one outside cats have yet learned to use. Ben, our half-lab half-corgi dog, aka, The Trickster, enjoyed breaking off the icicles and bringing them into the house to munch on--while sitting atop our new living room chair! Like me, our weenie dog, Cowboy, is way too much of a cold-weather wuss to be much interested in playing with frozen water.

As to "OK"., our outside kitty, I rigged up a little cabin for her in the back of my utility trailer under our carport. The Trailer has a camper top on it and I propped a small electric heater on the open tailgate. For comfy inside accommodations, I then threw down an old spread on top of a carpet scrap on the floor. It ain't much for looks, but it sure works. OK is a warm, dry and happy kitty despite the frightful weather:


Here's a better shot of OK:




He's a beautiful brute, no? We're happy he's adopted us.
