Varmit report

It's been raining moderate to hard most of tonight and is supposed to continue to be rainy til Monday. The three siblings are outside right now looking quite bedraggled and very hyper vigilant. Actually, they came by about 30 minutes ago and were desperately attacking the peanuts I'd put out in the rain. They looked so pathetic I tossed out a good portion of kibble, knowing it will make quite the gooey mess by morning; they started shoveling it in with both hands. They left for about ten minutes and are back, looking a tad less soaked. I wonder if they did some quick grooming to get back some insulation to their fur? It's in the mid-forties out there.

There is one skunk out there, too, and he looks like he's more weather proof than the coons. Maybe it's all that waxy long fur? Well, at least the siblings have each other to cuddle up to.

Well, at least I can give them some calories to ward off hypothermia.

Oh, would you believe that we actually had a couple of severe weather warnings for tornados? That's first for me.
