A Winter Stroll

December 20, 2018 By: Summer Samba42 Comments

somali cat outside in raspberry hoodie

Even though I’ve been out of town a couple of times this month, my outside time at home has been sorely lacking. So my human took me out to the backyard for a winter stroll. It was a bit chilly (for California), so I wore my raspberry hoodie.

This is the time of year in southern California when the colors change. Meaning, from brown to green! Those are mostly the only two colors we get. And yes, we still get some blooms.

Because it has been a while, there was a lot to see out here!

Mostly I just wanted to sit and look at everything. I could have been out there a lot longer, but my human wanted me to go back inside. I think she is a bit of a spoilsport. If she was cold, she should have been dressed more warmly.

I think she made me go inside way too early! Don’t you?

    That is nice that you got to go outside for a walk. It’s been so cold here I was only able to take Frankie and Chris out one time since moving here.

    Summer, I love that color on you! Be careful going from indoors to outdoors. The temperature changes can cause a kitty to catch a cold!

    Well, considering it was a planned stroll, your human should have planned better. I love the sweater, great color. You look happy enjoying the great outdoors. We have single digits here. Hibernation mode

    Maybe Santa will bring her a hoodie like yours for Christmas so she’ll stay warmer when she takes you outside and you can stay out longer. Winks.

    Well that’s just unfair. If it’s your stroll, you should have been able to decide when to go back inside! MOL!

    I must admit I am guilty too. Twenty minutes is about my limit with Frankie and then maybe fifteen with Chris.

    I love your raspberry hoody, the colour does suit. I think you must be the belle of the ball . . . certainly the best dressed winter perambulator in California. Now as to outdoor time, I have to say besides night time hunting trips it is really overrated.

    It’s disappointing when you have to go in before you are ready. Tell your human to dress warmer next time!

    You look wonderful in your pink hoodie, looks like a nice outing. Sometimes Moms get busy and forget their jackets, but she’ll never let you go out underdressed – give her a break this time sweetie.

    You should be able to be outside as long as you want. Your mum needs to dress warmly so she can stay out longer.

    Without that pink hoodie you could really blend in with the
    leaves. The birdies might even come down next to you….maybe.
    Anyway, maybe you can go out again very soon.
