It is very cold in Ottawa tonight. Heat is not

on yet. Captain Mogan is having none of it and keeps digging into my duvet and nesting against me to keep warm. I‘m all for this. Keeps me warn too but he won‘t let my hands in to warm them up. He keeps biting. Little brat. LOL.He was born in March so this cold is unpleasant and new for him.

And Captain Morgan too!

For a second I thought you were referring to a bottle of Captain Morgan. I think that's a whiskey or some such alcohol. Glad you have a pet. Hope your heat turns on very soon!

but they're starting to sleep on or against me more often. we're dropping to high 40s-to mid-50s overnight and i keep the fans in the windows as long as possible. i did button up last week when we dropped below freezing for a couple of nights, but i'm going open things back up before i go to bed.

in there for 10 minutes but he was so loving of me when I let him out. I feel terrible. All he does is sit on my lap and purr, or keep me warm and purr, or play at my feat and purr, or attack Twilight, and I go and lock him away. I don't deserve him.
