Baby, It's Cold Outside!

Here is Baby Nanners, one of my five outside kitties, exploring the mini ice rink on top of the bird bath. He was totally fascinated by the layer of ice, which I had to break to get to the water. I snapped a few pictures of him trying to figure out what was going on. Wouldn't you love to know what goes through their minds sometimes?

Deep Freeze in the Deep South

Okay, so it's not reallly a DEEP freeze, but it's cold enough to form a layer of ice on my bird bath. My smart kitty, Dahlia, had enough sense to walk gingerly on the ice, causing it to crack enough to allow some water through, which she promptly drank. Never mind that I have water outside the back door for her.
