5:55 am.. A cold nose to my cheek, a face wash and a bounce, wakes me. I stumble down to the kitchen herded by Nala. The kitchen doors complain with a metallic shriek as I crack the airlock. Nala races to the breach, gets hit by a wall of arctic air. “Nevermind” she signals. “Oh no you don’t!” Say I as she is launched by the collar into the frigid dawn.

We have been taking Max skiing with us a lot recently, he LOVES the snow and as far as he's concerned, the colder, the better. Just some easy Nordic today. Yesterday we took him on an easy backcountry alpine touring loop and he was pretty worn out from chasing us on the way down.

Why is looking at his face making me feel guilty?

The force is strong in the Xmas Laser mouse pointer… but with his new diet the force is even stronger in Old boy. We were away so having a belated Xmas with the puss today. We got back late but he called us down at 3am to open the presents. He is still quicker on the paw than the young pretender. The new toy seems to be a hit.

Very good. Most laser pointer thingys for cats seem to be red and cats can’t see the color red distinctly. I didn’t realize until recently reading cats vision is 20/100, very poor distance sight. Now I wonder how hairy knew it was me at the bottom of the driveway when she would run down meowing to see me, I guess they adapt and overcome as most of us try to do with our limitations.

Cats primary sense is hearing.

Yes but don’t forget their night vision and although very nearsighted their eyes are much more acute to movement than ours. I’m sure their sight evolved to assist their hunting and distance was not of the most importance. It’s pretty wild when you investigate sight, smell and vision of various animals hawks have some crazy vision.

Xmas with extended family is great, but we love being back home with our family for 2nd Xmas. New year has kinda become our relaxing Christmas break now. I have warned old boy about his drinking habits before but he is an old Tom and it does seem to put a spring in his step ;0) a nice little Xmas session ale….
