Normally I come home and the cat flops on his back to greet me, but tonight...
he sat with his back turned to me as I came in the door. :wtf:

then i noticed it was 90F in the house.

i got it down to the 80s only to notice it was getting warmer outside again (it's 11pm --I'm in the hills so sometimes at night we warm up for meteorological reasons i will not bore you with).

ugh. i cannot bring myself to buy an a/c for the annual 10 days of 90+ weather here. :banghead:

1. My dear CreekDog...
Buy the silly A/C!

Your cat will be happier, and your house will be cooler!

And your house will be cleaner too...Keeping the windows closed keeps the dust out...

Just sayin'...

:hug:

2. The cat's gonna steal your breath while you sleep tonight.
How'd you like to be cooped up in that heat while wearing a fur coat????????


Heh. My place is in the mid-70s now and we didn't run the A/C today.

4. yeah i think he's annoyed with me
:rofl:

at least in Walnut Creek I had A/C. here i don't normally need it, but those days that i do it sucks.

the breeze just dies at night up here when there's a heat wave.

oh well, it's not that bad but when i got home, it was bad.

8. It is a nice cool 60 here but the heat is coming.
Why don't you buy a small window unit for one room.

Your cat will be happy.

11. My kitties love it when it gets toasty in the house.
The hotter it is, the flatter and more stretched out they get. They're like melted butter.
