Cat Detail On March 18

You and I and the young cat facing the weather coming at us from the northeast.
We woke up to the continuously falling snow of the second storm in 3 days. Good thing yesterday was lovely and sunny for an outing and thus today is less confining. It is the kitten's first winter and, thus, it is intrigued by the clumps of snow we bring in on our boots. The creature is also fascinated by the life around our compost bin. Squirrels go in and out through a broken vent and drag out carrot and potato peelings, which in turn attract black-capped chickadees, blue jays and crows. No birds today but a squirrel scampered on the glazed snow to the bin. Young Sparky gazed at it from the window sill with twitching tail.
When I tidy the litter trays, 3 times a week, Sparky will accompany me , and I get the impression that it thinks I use the same facility. And it is pleased to find common ground.
