[Cats] CULTURE SHOCK!!!

[marion paterson]

My daughter in Virginia (Richmond area) got 14 inches!  She was just  
telling me the other night that they always forecast these big  
storms, but nothing much happens.  Well, it did this time!

They have 6 indoor cats who don't ever go out.  But they have 4  
outdoor cats that adopted them, that they make sure are in their  
garage at night (on quilts, etc.)  They kept them indoors all day  
yesterday when the snow was coming down like a blizzard, but today,  
they let them look out the garage door.

MaMa Chickie, a black, DLH insisted on bounding out and landed in the  
very dry soft snow, and disappeared except for her tail!  The others  
wouldn't follow suit - wisely!  LOL
