The Cat Days of Summer

Summer began a long time ago here but for over two weeks we have been nothing but sun, ok there was a 2 minute rain today, with a few mornings of June gloom...for the non-Southern Californians that means fog in the morning that typically the sun burns off as the day progresses caused from the colder ocean breeze coming over the warm land...and the temperature has warmed up considerably, actually getting over 85 yesterday, which is usually only for a few days in late July or August. In years past that was considered the Netherlands summer. Not any more...fortunately today the wind is blowing so it is causing it to feel cooler besides being cooler and not so oppressive as the last couple days. Sleeveless shirt and shorts are still called for.

The warm weather definitely presents some problems for the cats in finding a cool place to hang out and sleep. Here are some of their choices:
Just plopping on the floor, Columbo and Oscar's place yesterday:


The dark under the bed/headboard spot Pim seems to be preferring:
