ICE CUBES!!!

Here is the story... Our new home don't have no 'lectricity cause sum inspector has ta cum furst and tells Gran Mawmee stuffoms to do ... So weze borrowin lectricity frum our Gran mawmee next door. Todays it gotted a hunurt n one degreez outsides, but dis here centuree old house stayed bout 80 degreess inside. Durin da night Mawmee brings in cooler air wif a window fan. Den in da mornin, she shuts da window and runs a box fan ta keep air curcool-laytin.

Dat helps but Mawmee went and gotted dis here bag of ice cubes to puts in front of da fan today. She been doin dat on real hot days ta keep our sleepin room cooler in da afturnoon. She reads dat in da local papur on how to keep cool.

Well Ize gotted good at openin da door to da sleepin room
and I letted all my sisfurs out and broffur Spunky.
Mousee too shy and stayed behind our sleepin couch.

Andee wayz, Bootsie and Daisy gotted to pantin while explorin da ovur rooms, so Mawmee pickdid dem up and rubbed dem wif cold water on dehr heads and tummees! And dey liked dat!! Spunkee dont like hiz tummee touched. He fussed but he liked it too. And I gotta confess - I dont likes my tummee rubbed neevur, but dat cold ice water felt sooo good!!

And dats how weze stayin cool wifout air conditionin...

What a great idea for staying cool!

Pixie is my older sister. She is a Devon Rex kitty, too. But she is very sick with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Since her heart hurts, she does not like to get her picture taken very often.

I saw your note about my harness. It's made by Puppia. I won it in a contest, but I think you can get them on-line. It is very comfy and secure!

Ouch - 100 degrees and no air condition. It's almost 10:00 pm here in SC and it's still 90 degrees outside. Glad your mom found a way to keep you cool!

Jans Funny Farm said...

Katie Too, would you mind if we asked for a pitcher of water?

Okay, Katie #1,to answer your question, we're afraid this goes on nationwide. For example, it doesn't happen here. We aren't anywhere near a rendering plant. But in big cities such as, if we remember correctly, Los Angeles, or places where they have rendering plants, it has been happening for many years.

Katiez Furry Mewz said...

Of course weze gots lots of water!! and ice and stuffoms! duz you wants a drink or would you like a dunkin?

Mawmee likes to dunk cool water on her head! She's funny.

We dont like dis rendering stuff. I hopes its not in our foodees frum Walmart.

Love Richard Belzer, huge Law and Order fan! Jerry Orbach was also a huge supporter of animals, in NY we used to see his Adoption ads everywhere.

Happy birthday!

Whata brilliant idea to stay cool. It's humid as all hell here in the UK, so I'm gonna suggest the ice idea to my Mum! Stay cool!

Oh, that's a bad time for you to be without electricity. Glad to hear that you've come up with a way to keep cool in spite of everything.
