Before I replaced it in 2017, I had a stacked washer-dryer that was a favorite of the late Louie and Andy. This photo showed up again on Facebook and is one of Andy being stealthy. The new machine doesn’t have easy access to the dryer, but Andy sometimes studies the possibility of somehow getting into it.
Louie love, love, loved this dryer for his naps! Sadly, when he died, this is where I found him. He was a great kitty and was the predecessor to Andy and the late Dougy.
Looking for the Louie video, this video that shows how magnificent Andy’s tail was came up. This is why I was unhappy with myself for agreeing to a lion cut this last time. Andy’s tail must never be trimmed again!

I didn’t pay attention to weather reports, so got a surprise when I looked out the front door at 9:15 am yesterday. Froggy was getting buried in snow.
Yep. My car was being buried in the third snowdrift of the season, too.

I have a stone bear outside. He is my guide to whether it’s actually snowed significantly
It’s good to have such a reference, isn’t it!?
I like to watch it melt
We, The Cat Gang vote in support of Mr Andy’s glorious tail and against the poodle haircut someone had the temerity to call “lion”!
Thanks! That will be the last time for that style.
As we say in Odessa, this was already done two times, the first one, which is also the last time.
Thanks! Never again!
Yay! Meow! – says The Cat Gang.
Eegads… so much snow!
But I’m distracted by wondering how many times you hit the handicap sign for it to be leaing so far.
Backing into my parking spot, I have the benefit that my VW has a backup video camera. I get a very specific graphic warning on the screen to stop before I hit the sign. Driving in, I can tell when I’m getting close, though I can park pretty far from it and still be off the lane, a benefit of driving a compact European station wagon.
As for the sign’s lean, the sideway tilt came earlier from being knocked that way by the person mowing the lawn’s lawnmower.
The sign’s forward tilt came from the person clearing the parking spot’s snow blade either going too far or the weight of the snow being pushed forward.
My clue, now, that I didn’t run into it, besides my excellent driving skills and virtually flawless record, is that I always approach the sign slowly because I don’t want to mess up the front end of my car. The video saves my tail end, of course.
People mowing lawns and clearing snow, on the other hand, have a huge amount of work to accomplish in a short time, so tend to rush through their work. Also, I’ve witnessed both side swiping both this sign and other things in their way, like an electrical box that’s in the middle of the lawn aa few feet behind my parking space. It looks like hell from all the collisions!
Andy has a magnificent tail! Louie was a one of a kind cat.
I hope the weather starts getting better for you as February nears. I can’t believe we are almost a month past solstice now.
I’m finished with snow!
I like the Frog in Snow picture!
That’s what I see every time I open my front door!
Uhg! You can keep the snow, Doug! Andy’s tail is amazing, so long and thick. I’m sorry about finding your kitty in the dryer, Doug. 🙏🏻
I’m tired of snow. Yeah, Andy deserves to grow it out fully again. No more lion cuts! It was a sad day I found Louie dead. Lymphoma did it.
I’m so sorry, Doug. I’m tired of the abnormality cool temperatures down here this winter.
On top of it, poor Louie barely could walk or stand when I saw him last, and I can only imagine his heroic efforts to get up into the dryer. I makes me sad to this day thinking about this.
I wondered about him getting into the drier too, Doug. Give Andy a hug for me. 🐈
Louie was a cutie. And that is one impressive tail. XO
Louie was a beautiful kitty on top of a cat with a great personality! The tragedy of Andy’s scalloped tail is that he is very tail proud. He was upset with it being trimmed like that and was pouty when he came back from the groomer’s. Granted, she did her usual excellent job of it, it’s just not a good cut for Andy.
That is a grand tail indeed! It will grow back quickly. Cool frog in snow picture; it may not be a blizzard but it looks like a lot of snow to me!
It was a fairly large snowstorm. Andy’s will be granted the chance to grow his tail out again: no more lion cuts!
My eyes are getting bad…I could not tell the difference between the frog & soccer van 🐸
There are some similarities…
I suppose it could have been worse
Yes, a stiff blizzard-level wind with it would have made a fine mess!
All that snow! We have ice here but no snow.
I think it’ll melt soon…I hope!
