Do they know something we don't know?

Cleo and Yeti are shedding their summer coats already, and it’s only August. Are we in for a cold winter this year?

I dunno. Cleo and Figaro, being both neutered, reproduce via shedding. They both dump a kitten's worth of fur every day into the carpet, rain or shine, summer or winter.

Ask not for whom the cat sheds - it sheds for thee.

Hey - I just realized...we have cats that share the same name.

It's a small world after all. ;-)

I don't know if the cats know, but maybe I'm part cat and this is a hair thing, because I've been shedding a lot, too. (My hair tends to shed regularly and, on occasion, in alarming amounts and without giving me bald spots. This is one of those occasions.)

Is your Cleo named after the heroine of the classic Troma film Teenage Cat Girls in Heat?

Your cats are so fluffed up I'm certain they must
be wearing at least six seasons worth of coats at any
given time, not just one summer coat.

Nope - after the fish in Pinocchio (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0032910/) ;-) Wife is a major Disney fan. Figaro's name comes from the cat in the same movie.

Both Cleo and Figaro (see icon) are domestic short hair black and whites. Cleo is one year younger than her brother.

They’re dressed for the weather... it’s just that the weather they’re dressed for usually involves ice skating, snowball fights, salted roads, and school closures.
