Heat pad kat

After several windy, rainy and snowy days I was outside today to visit the kats and to take new pics of some bags in my shop and some new bags, too.

The wind was rather nasty, but in sheltered places the sun was really warm. But anyway I was dressed well enough to go on a polar expedition and I could hardly move.

The kats were sitting under their heat lamp, or sleeping or trying to beg treats from the occasional visitor.

Later in the afternoon, when the sun was shining on the new heat pad, Sayuri sat there, scratching it frantically. She obviously liked the heat on her bottom, as she also tried to dig next to the pad, without getting up.

Lateron the youngsters engaged into playing on the pad and some of the adults joined in, too.

Orlok spent some time terrorizing everyone in turn by rubbing his head onto them. When everybody made it clear that they did not like his affectionate behaviour, he stood up to have a look at whom he might have omitted.

With the sun shining for longer hours now, the more playful mood is back into the group. Möfzi is still looking rather unkempt and she answers almost every attempt at coming close by any of the males, except for Swingkat or Snoutie with loud chattering and snarling.

I made some pcitures of the playful youngsters, this time the pictures did come out rather well. So enjoy the not-so-little kats.

People die but life goes on. Prayers for the loved ones of the deceased. One needs to stay strong and have patience in circumstances like these.
