Cold enough for you? Well, it’s cold enough for reader Tracy R. and her cat Hamster:

Here’s Hamster making a point that it’s rather chilly (he’s lying in the spot where the heat comes out of the vent). Just so everyone knows that I’m not torturing the cat by turning down the heat: I hate cold as much as Hamster, and the thermostat is set at eighty degrees. Yes, eighty. And me and Hamster are still a bit chilly!

cat with light fur and a striped tail lays on the floor near an ornate wooden chest. The chest is partially covering a heating grate.
Um, could somebody move this chest so I can sit ON the vent?

Even with a comfy quilted bed nearby, this kitten knows that Buddy is the better bed because: 1. Buddy is self-heating, and 2. a bed can never be inconvenienced by having a cat sitting on it.
