Is Brown Season Over Already?

January 17, 2022 By: Summer Samba21 Comments

Summer wonders if brown season (fall and winter in California) is already over after going outside on her leash.

We had a couple of warm days last week, so my human took me out on my leash for a while, and I was really surprised at what I saw.

Usually at this time of year, we are still in brown season.

Not this year! We are already seeing green.

My backyard is exploding with greenery. The weird thing is it hasn’t rained that much. Maybe a little more than some of the drier years, but it’s not soggy like it was three years ago either.

To be honest, I like green season better. Brown season may match my fur, but green season matches my eyes.

    The outside kitties are in awe of you. They think they’re not worthy when you’re around.

    Looks lovely Summer. Especially since we’re buried under 20 inches of snow. I don’t like it at all. California dreaming Summer

    I feel sure the outside cats have learned the more caution they use,
    the longer they will live. They don’t see you out very often so they
    are afraid. Probably, if you were out all day – every day – they would
    lose their fear. Of course, that isn’t going to happen.
    It really does look green out there – maybe an early Spring!

    We have white season here…though there’s some brown too. Green would be better.

    We have green all year round here.
    Maybe the outside cats are hiding away but watching you.

    I think I would like green season too.
    I am not a big fan of our white season as it is cold.
    I do not like cold. I am glad we have a furnace that gives warm air 🙂
    Purrs, Julie
