Wordy Wednesday

Let me in!!!

Clever boy :-)

This is Oscar, my brother's cat who lives in rural Sweden.  It is about -5C during the day and -20C at night so trips outside are only a few minutes then he knocks at the window to come back inside.  My brother and his wife wait dutifully at the window to make sure he isn't out too long.  Oscar is very well trained...or are they?

Please, let him in faster, faster :-)
I am even surprised that he wants and needs to go outside it this freezing weather! On the other hands small trips are healthy, aren't they?

Sparkle said...

In that kind of weather, I don't think I would want to go outside at all! Of course, I am indoors-only, so even temperatures under 70 degrees are generally foreign to me!

we think we would be skipping the outside trips altogether

Marg said...

Oh I hope they hurry up and let him in. That is way too cold to be outside. Have a great day.

Lovely, clever boy! :)
My Mom's kitties have a ball hanging at the door, with a little bell inside (it was a kitty toy), and they actually "ring the bell" when they want to come back in! :)

Holy Cat, that's cold! We're not sure who trained who, but we're glad Oscar doesn't have to stay out there too long! :)

There's no way we would ask to go out in that weather, but it does sound like Oscar has your brother trained very well!

Oh my that is just the CUTEST thing!

The Island Cats said...

We hope he got in real quick!!

You asked about our stockings. The mom bought them years ago at JoAnn Fabrics (do they have those stores where you live?). She got one for both me and Wally, this was before Zoey lived here. When Zoey came along, the mom went back hoping (slim chance) that they might have the stocking or something similar. No such luck. So Zoey's stocking is totally different (it wasn't in the picture today). ~Ernie

It's good to be able to come inside in weather like that. Why would Oscar want to go out at all? Just hopeful, I guess.

I see you get those e-mails from 'Anonymous', too. Those are just spam. You can tell because they never refer to anything specific in a blog. I'm getting more and more of them.

Kathy said...

At first I thought you got snow for Christmas, then I read the caption!
Oh my, that is very cold, but brave of Oscar to want to venture out, even but for a few minutes!
Don't all cats (and dogs) train us well?! lol

A Tonl said...

Well, of course it's always the humans who are well trained, but don't tell them! MOL!

cats of wildcat woods said...
