So, this is what the cats think about the winter temperatures!
If you listen closly they are not purring but quietly chanting  "we love you, we love you, we love you, non stop!"

If there is an animal that has a opinion it is definitely a cat.

Thomas,

Those cats sure do look comfortable. Is there a name for the kind of breed that they are? They have such a distinct look, I haven't seen it before. They look rather regal!

Yes, those are all Persian cats, with rather poor haircuts.
Known as the lounge lizards of the cat world, they prefer to drape across your furniture, leaving a coating of hair everywhere they go!
Quiet and calm, and usually not very talkative. (There are exceptions!)
We raised breeders & show  Persians for over 25 years. (Belgian Gulch Persians)
We only have seven of our fixed moms left, now.

We had a BlueSmoke Persian who ran our house and every day plotted my death. She would sit beside my wife and ask me if I served any purpose on earth. If I made a comment back to her … such as volunteering her for medical experiments…she would turn her back to me and lift her tail.  I miss her.
