Icy fountain, January 15, 2024 © Colehauscats.com

Our area is coming out of over 110 hours of very unusual, bitterly cold, sub-zero degree weather. Throughout high east winds channeling through the Columbia River gorge, snow fell the second half of the day last Saturday and temperatures stayed from lows of 11 degrees (f) to highs of 27 degrees (f) since. Yesterday, we had a bit more snow and then an ice storm. Overnight, things warmed a bit and today’s all about the slow melt back to normalcy.

The fountain is gorgeous with its icy coat. It runs 24/7/365 to allow birds and wildlife access to water, and to keep the pipes from freezing solid. Most of the fountain parts are underground and fairly well protected below the frost line. Tomorrow, the ice will fall off the pillars in big sheets and by this time next week, it’ll look typically wet and mossy green.

We were notified last weekend that our Colehaus Cats Facebook page somehow violated their copyright rules and our Colehaus Cats Facebook page would be deleted. That notification could be spam or it could be real. We don’t know. Mom doesn’t have time to play email tag with the Facebook higher ups to find out the hows and whys. So if our minuscule presence on Facebook disappears, you’ll know why. All we can do is apologize. Oh, and grrr.

    I am hoping it’s spam. There are cruel people out there for certain. You and we will see within a few days. There is no way Colehaus could violate their copywriter rules. Every of us would be deleted!!! You know how we are with memes. xo

    I wish you could have been to Katie’s big Gotcha Day pawty. She even had a bus to come pick up kitties whose tunnels were on the fritz! I think there are some leftover cupcakes…if your gang wants to come over. https://katieisabella.blogspot.com/

  3. Pia certainly is in love with her tasty banana!
    You gave me an idea…
    What a brutal winter you are all living—may the weather soon soften up.
    Facebook thinks they can ‘control’ all others.
    Hugs,
    Mariette + Kitties

    Pia is beautiful, and so is the frozen fountain.

  5. Stay warm! I hope it’s spam too.

    Pia, it’s so nice to see you. That fountain looks so pretty, and we know the critters appreciate you keeping it running. 🙂

    We hope that’s just some stupid spam. Some people are so messed up.
