The Bittersweet Side To Spring

Here's What I am Going To Miss

 

Sigh...Mommy and Daddy cleaned out the fireplace real good.  Then they put away the tools.  You know what that means, no more fires in the fireplace for a gazillion sleeps.  I love the fireplace.  I is a wonderful place to snooze by.  It gets my furs very warm and I can sleep at the end of the sofa near Mommy. I dream of chasing fake mousies and eating shrimp, and all sorts of secret kitty things.  And now, it's done.  Gone.  Cleaned out.  Bye-bye winter.  I'll miss you!

But!  Mommy reminded me that now I get more back porch time!  And sun!  And bird and squirrel watching!  And warm breezes to sniff!  And maybe, just maybe, a few supervised strolls in the backyard!  Maybe Springtime isn't a bad thing after all!

Maybe I'll even see a real live peep! (yum!)

Welcome Springtime!

2 - I wish we had a fireplace. I just have to sit in my heat box where the hot air collects because I shiver through the winter. (Comment this)

4 - Hi Parker - Very happy to meet you! I'm sorry you will miss your fireplace but sun in the porch is wonderful. I spend almost all Spring, Summer and Fall out there in the sunshine.

7 - My cousin Molly used to have a big woodstove that she LOVED! It was hard work for Gran to feed it, though. Now she and Gran live in an apartment with big, sunny windows. She loves sitting in the sunny spots- she doesn't miss the woodstove! (Comment this)

8 - Spring is my very favorite time of year! Once it gets warm and sunny, you can lay in the sunspots, instead of by the fireplace. That's fun too. (Comment this)
