During previous searingly hot summers, I have sat in the living room with a fur-covered animal on my lap, a blanket over my knees (because said animal doesn’t like contact with bare skin), a candle burning (because of said animal’s allergies) and the fan off (because said animal doesn’t like the breeze), all the while hating myself and wondering how I became such a pathetic excuse for a human being.
However, Louis Catorze has decided that he does like the fan after all. So I am proud to declare that I now only do three of the four things mentioned above, making me merely SOMEWHAT pathetic as opposed to an utter loser.
Here I am, sweltering in the blistering heat, whilst Sa Maj relaxes in comfort:

Every night (or almost every night) Gracie sits between my legs on top of the fleece blanket I am forced to use. I don’t have the candle burning but my skin sure is!

So you and I are as pathetic as each other. That is both reassuring and tragic. 🤣🤣🤣

My beloved Holly insisted on sleeping on my chest every night and on me being under a comforter. It was lovely in winter and quite warm in the summer.

Aww. Having Catorze on my lap is wonderful in winter and pretty awful in the summer. 😐

Our cat Timon is not keen on staying on our lap, but if I were you, I would choose a less warm blancket.

Le Roi is quite fussy about the type of blanket! I don’t suppose that will surprise you one bit. 🫤

Oh… what an adorable picture! Louis doesn’t mind the blowing fan? Jimi doesn’t like the noise it makes. I have a ventilator in every room of the house. It makes me look forward to the winter…

He still prefers no fan at all, but he will tolerate the noise and the breeze. 🤣🤣🤣 I’m looking forward to the winter, too!

My darling Sosso loved to sleep on my belly, at night, under the comforter. Needless to say, I, too, was looking forward to the winter months 😉

Maybe you can sneak an ice pack under that blanket. I won’t tell.
