The fact that you are posting on this site tells us we don't need to worry

Sol loved snow.

Hiro looks like a Norwegian Forest Cat or a mix of it  If so, he is at home in the snow.  http://cfa.org/Breeds/BreedsKthruR/NorwegianForestCat.aspx

Thank you @KatKnapper  He does look a bit like a NFC, but I think that's unlikely. He's from a feral colony I TNR'd in a very rural part of Japan. His half brother, Button, looks very similar.


His litter mate, Jiro, is more typical of the cats we see in these parts. Short fur and a bob-tail.

(Sorry, picture is a bit blurry. My camera has trouble with black cats in the snow.)


This is their Mum, Tokiko.


I TNR'd her about 4 years ago. She still lives in my neighbor's barn, she's a wild girl!

Perhaps someone let their unneutered "Wegie" out to roam and it started a chain reaction in the colonies. .  I googled "cat breeds in Japan" and this site has the "Top 10 Cat Breeds."  Norwegian Forest Cats and the Ragdoll were number 6th and 7th.  http://en.rocketnews24.com/2013/05/...rite-cat-breeds-for-2013-who-will-be-top-cat/

One of my cats, Cricket, during a blizzard on our roof deck (cat proofed).

Neo likes snow too. 

Xena wasn't afraid of a little  snow when she was young. Christmas 2004.

 Video! we'd LOVE to see video, or even pix. I'll bet the kids absolutely adore having their feline "sibling" playing in the snow with them. Sounds like my MaineCoon, JC - the quintessential family cat.

My MaineCoon, JC, looks a lot like Norachan's Hiro!!!

Just a tad more snow yesterday than the previous snow fall.... Foxy is bewildered

Beautiful pictures!  And we were all fascinated by snow when we lived in a climate like that.  Miss it so much. 

Yet another crazy cat who thinks that she can catch snowflakes through the glass:

Most of my cats always loved snow or at least it didn't bother them. If the air was warm they don't mind walking on the snow.

Here's Honeybee:




Angel Floey loved playing in the snow..only a few inches though. She used to chase snow across the pool top in my old place=it had a pool cover and water frozen-I remember seeing her skid around like a kitten chasing snowballs that she made-she did it again here on my deck. She one time pooped on top of a big big pile of snow in front of the house-it must have been ten or more feet-it was just HUGE. well I remember seeing her climb up and up-then see her squat!! HAHA   She always liked to walk in a pathway we snowblowed for her in our yard. She didn't like walking through deep snow but if it was crusty on top then she had no trouble walking across it.

Pumps doesn't like the snow at all but she will sit on the deck in the winter-but not for long.

All beautiful pictures!!

Now THAT's marking territory! 

Gorgeous pictures.  What a pretty Honeybee!

that was at the place with a pool in another city..hahaha I remember seeing her squat and was gonna tell her to git lost but then I realized hey one less pile for me to scoop!! and not sure why she pooped up there on top of the pile..that was strange!! LOL. And I don't remember what happened when the snow melted...no one else saw her doing this so at least the neighbors didn't think I was too weird.   Thank you for the puraise and yes Honeybee is the light of my life..her sweet face and her wheezy snores at night..

Don't you just love the snoring?  If human snores were like that, there'd be no problem! Of course no human could EVER come close to a cat in cuteness    My Tarifa snortles quite a lot and I find it cute and comforting.  If I am in bed and hear that, I feel very safe and happy.  

All these snow kitties are awesome!  Hiro is my hero.  Such great cat, as are all these snow kitties!

I took Hiro and Little Boy for a walk this afternoon.


Hiro takes his walks very seriously.





most of the time.




"Seriously! We are being stalked!"


Little Boy all fluffed up to face "The danger".

It took me a while to notice what was bothering them.



Deer Family are back.
