I do not like that forecast. I looked at the predications for the next week and the coldest mornings are all the ones Iâm working (which means 4am wakeup). Two days -1, one day 0, and a pleasantly warm 2 degrees for the other. There should be an extra penalty rate or allowance for early starts in below zero temperatures.

Holy crap. Itâs going to get down to 0?
Itâs already 5.5c here
bacon@aussie.zone â¨4⊠â¨months⊠ago

Miniest wants me to wake her up so she can experience that temperature. She likes it đ

Holy fuck thatâs cold.
Wish I could explain to the cat that sheâs allowed under the doona:

Lie on side - raise top arm and possibly knee to create cat tent with doona - she may go under and then you can possibly slowly lower the doona down over the lower half of her body.
It might be more effective with a heat source to tempt her in.
Maybe Melbcat is unusually cuddly for a cat though

This is the way. I never met a cat that could resist the call of the âcat tentâ and itâs emanating warmth. Especially being claustrophiles as they often are.

One cat really didnât like being confined or held and would lash out (a neglected runaway I eventually got back to his owner) but with patience he started to spoon with me over the covers on his own.
If heâd crashed for longer than a few months I might have built enough trust for the cat tent

I better put the chili pots in the warm part of the garden
Gibsonisafluffybutt@aussie.zone â¨4⊠â¨months⊠ago
Thank you! Will give it a go tonight.
bacon@aussie.zone â¨4⊠â¨months⊠ago
put doona over her
Gibsonisafluffybutt@aussie.zone â¨4⊠â¨months⊠ago
I usually do and she accepts it but then the doona is covering my head đ
