Thread: Snow happy babes....

I'm really surprised at how Hank has failed to cope with the snow.. Aside from being a bit of a wuss with it, which I can understand as he's in most the time so it's all new to him, he just doesn't seem to be well equiped for it..... which is what I don't understand..

I thought they were bred for these harsh snowy conditions and would thrive, instead as his sense of balance isnt the best, watching him jump onto one of our outside chairs and slide across and off the other side of it was the furthest away from grace you could get lol, but seriously the fur, I thought the long fur was to keep them warm but when he went out for a few minutes and came running back in carrying half the gardens snow in on his underbelly and backside I couldn't help feeling sorry for him.. it really clumped up on to my poor little bear.

He was braver than my two, Dave. I had to carry Freyja out into the garden, and as I lowered her into the snow she developed the art of levitation and shot back inside! I'm not sure she even got wet paws...
