The Cats

The Cats stayed outdoors last night, but came in this morning. They enjoyed getting in from the cold, they said.

I have never really understood why our cats often want to stay out for so long, even when it is cold outside. They like to hunt mice, they say, but this cannot be the full explanation. Dogs rather spend time in the warmth indoors. This is proof to me that dogs are smarter than cats. 

Coming Home

We were away for the weekend, but now we are back home again. It feels nice to be back in the comfort of our own home, sleeping in our own bed.

Paula made it through important parts of her trainee sessions to become authorised as a ring steward. At the same show, Daniel worked as a ring steward. We dogs were there to keep them company and boost their morale. We believe we did this well. Paula and Daniel were happy to have us there. It was a good trip. 

All Saints’

We commemorate the spirits of the dead today. Long live their memories. 

There are a lot of dogs we have known, who are no longer with us. Our thoughts go out to them today, more than usual. 

Rest in peace, everyone!

Winter Month

In the old days, I have been told, people did not call this month November in Sweden. They called it vintermånad, which means Winter Month. This is a little strange. It sure gets colder in this month, but I would not say it is winter. This is despite my Mexican heritage, which makes Sweden a relatively cold country. I wonder why the old Swedes called November Winter Month.
