Worrier

Speaking of worrying... Last night I let Kurbie out to do his business. He wasn't out long- probably less than five minutes- but it was extremely cold out (low temps bitter windchill). I noticed him plopping over in a bank of snow- struggling with his footing.

I called out in concern and with a little effort he limped back into the house. He was shivering uncontrollably so I held him close to warm him up. Later he climbed on my lap underneath a blanket.

He doesn't seem to be showing any ill effects but it taught me to keep an eye out when it's this cold out and they have to go outside...
