Kelly loves to go outside and cold and snow don't bother him at all. He has a very thick floofy coat to keep him warm. He likes going out even when it's cold so much that he had a bit of a problem this last winter. He had been out enjoying himself, but collapsed on the sidewalk in front of the house. He was rushed to the vet, who found nothing wrong with him. It turns out that hypothermia in cats can bring on a seizure and that is apparently what happened to Kelly. He is fine now, except for his irritable bowel syndrome. He had quite a yakfest before that was discovered to be the problem. His diet is watched much more carefully now and he is losing some weight, which is good, because he had gotten a bit too heavy.
Kelly likes to walk in the snow,
But he doesn't like to take it slow.
He runs for the door
To get in before
His mancat toes turn as cold as the snow.

I like KELLY very very much,
he is always stylish and very good walking and playing on the snow!!! He is much more stronger than me!
Wowser! What a beautiful Ginger Tuxie. Mom just fell in love.
That's pretty unique for a kitty to like the cold, plus wettness of the snow. He is quite a tough cat!
p.s. thanks for your kindness and comments on my blog about my Fritz. I really appreciated it.

We are very impressed with Kelly. We don't like the cold or wet! We're glad he's feeling better, no more yaks!
Kelly is pretty brave, we don't like to get our feet in the snow!
Kelly is a very good Mancat!
We didn't know that about cats and hypothermia. We're glad we felines here don't go out in the cold. We find the house cold enough, thank you. Kelly is a handsome kitty.
Kelly is a hansum cat. We don't get snow, but if it's cold we stay in by the fire.
I think Kelly needs to get in before his toes get cold! Oh wait--he did! :)
A beautiful poem for a brave mancat!!
I don't care cold or rain, but snow... NO way. ;)
