The End of Winter ?
Could it be that we’ve seen the last snow of the winter here in Northport? Seems possible. In the pic above, Ginger is outside tentatively checking out the receding snowfall. A rainfall yesterday washed even more of it away. With daily temps in the 40s, sure feels like Spring! And Ginger’s thick winter coat is shedding in clumps …another sure sign that winter is on the wane! (By the way, a note to all cat-lovers reading this… no, neither of my cats are outdoor cats. But I do let Ginger outside occasionally in the Winter, when there’s snow on the ground, for short, supervised excursions. She’s a true snow-cat, loves to run her lynx paws across it. Here’s another pic….isn’t she sweet? Almost looks like she’s flying into the clouds!).

Don’t get all happy yet. I just checked the weather and it’s supposed to go back down to the 20’s on Tuesday and snow again on Wednesday. Back to the 40’s on Saturday … that’s March fer ya. BTW your cat has the most amazing green eyes I have ever seen.
