Paulette

Grimace doesn’t like snow. She doesn’t like the cold. I can understand that. She likes to go outdoors but on snowy days this is what happens. “Let me in. Who put this cold white stuff here?”

She is however a very active (hyperactive) cat who needs more space than our home has. When she can’t get out she runs at full speed through the house. She bumps into things, slides across the hardwood floors and sometimes her paws screech as she comes to a stop.

How to handle a hyper cat? Make a kitty run for her. Dave shoveled this path along the back of the house.

And this path along the side.

Now she can go out the patio door, run back and forth and jump up on the fence to chase the squirrels and taunt the neighbour’s dog.

At least when she comes back inside she is ready for a nap. We keep hearing of cats who sleep 20 hours a day. She isn’t one of them!
