I have been monitoring the weather and temperature at home and gosh how cold it has been there. The temperature goes from four to negative degrees at the coldest. Animals have their own instincts and defense mechanisms, but I was worried of my cat being left alone outside in the cold weather. More importantly, he will be proned to being run over, God forbid. But now hubby said that he is faring well, and that he, the cat, is getting fat. I am so glad. The time he came to us he was still a kitten and starving to death he was so skinny. I am so glad he is okay.
