Wow, it's cold!

I suppose you're wondering what the picture of my kitty litter box has to do with the title of the blog. Let me explain.

See how nice and clean the kitty litter is? You see, Tuffy doesn't like to poop in the litter, only pee..which is very easy to scoop out. Tuffy likes to go outside to poop.

Now, I've lived in very cold places...Moosonee, Goose Bay, even North Bay Ont. and I have always had cats, but I have never seen this very interesting phenomena before in all my almost 62 years.

Warning...if any of you are weak of stomach do not read on.

Anyway, Tuffy went out the other evening to do his business. It was very, very cold. When he came in and ran to his dish to eat, I noticed something very odd.

His poop was frozen to his bum along with a big chunk of ice. His poop froze as he pooped!!!!! Have you ever heard of such a thing.

Now, I don't know if anybody here has ever tried to wipe a cat's bum.....but it's something equivalent to trying to give a cat a pill.

I managed to grab some of it with a big wad of paper towel, but he got very disturbed that I was trying to get near his 'private' area (although, he doesn't mind pushing it in my face sometimes), and he ran away...with poop stuck to him!!!! AGGGHHHHH...I have new furniture. Where would I find it when it thawed out?

Well, I never did find that poop..and I've cleaned my house all the way through...

So I can only assume that he 'cleaned' himself up...ewwwwwwwwww. Now you know why I don't like cats to lick me!!!!

In other news, there is no other news. Just wanted to share this with you.

Talk to you later
