Eeek! Its suddenly got REALLY cold this week at night, and really warm during the day. But its not until about 11/12 that it heats up. Poor Lexi is feeling it, shes a bit stiff. Might get her a jumper to wear at night! She doesn't like being too warm, but i have noticed her weight dropping a little and shes still being fed the same (in fact we have gone from the light food to the normal one so shes got MORE fat in it) also put a nice fleece in her bed. I want to get her a new bed though, a more cosey one.

It's been kinda cold here at night and thru the day with the cold wind yet strangely my Flo has been very keen to get out for walks this last week i dont know

I guess they must feel the cold as they get older just like humans so a jumper might be nice, not that my Flo would keep one on Rolling Eyes

tessa is black so if the sun is out she gets very warm very quickly so she seems to prefer the colder weather as it's more comfortable for her on our longer walks.

Milo sleeps in his basket at top of the stairs but I do put an extra old chunky knitted sweater in there when it gets colder that he can snuggle into as well. Come the morning he's straight onto my bed and zoom under the duvet - one question - how do they breathe under there? If I go under I can't stay long - I feel like I'm suffocating
