Unlike those prognosticating rodents, Rupert doesn’t think we’ll get an early spring. And he’s staying wrapped up nice and warm until at least mid-April.

In other news… Louis is alive!!!! I was starting to get really worried, because while it’s not warm out there, it been up around the freezing mark all week with no sign of him – but other cats were out and about. But then, I checked the cameras Wednesday night and…

There he was coming up the steps. He stayed for about five minutes for a snack and went on his way. I’m hoping he starts coming around during the day time soon.
