The cats cannot understand why they can’t go outside today. It’s not that I don’t trust that they can take care of themselves, it is just that I have taken care to ensure that they can stay cool inside, and sometimes animals need us to take care of them because even though they think they can, they might not always be great at it.
There is a breeze outside but the breeze is about ten degrees hotter (or actually more, I don’t know for sure) than the temp inside the little blue cottage.
I did learn from my mother, all windows and doors are open all night but the coolest comes between 3 and 6 am, at about 7.30 when I felt the temperature start to rise I closed everything up (windows, blinds and curtains). It was around 1 o clock when I picked Sherriff up off what he thought was a cool piece of rock in a lump and brought him inside. He has not left the same corner in my office since then, Sunny is a little enticer, she wants out, but it is too hot for them. I used a cold damp cloth to wet her paws, as long as I stay in with her she is ok.
Yes it is hot but I am taking care of my cats even though they don’t know it.
