    Yes, cat does have a tendency to shed, which is why it's not the number 1 choice for most furriers.

    Otherwise you can get natty mink ones for £450...

      Was supposed to go to Zurich on Friday but we looked at the heavily falling snow and scrapped the idea.

      Saturday morning was awoken by the sound of snow shovels.

      Went out for a stroll this afternoon. It wasn't too cold but when it started snowing heavily I caught the bus home.

      The bus driver drove gingerly.

        Getting sick of the grey skies.

          Luckily it didn't snow overnight but it didn't clear. Motorway was clear (ish) until Siegerland and then the snow blattered down for the next 80km or so. Get near the A1 (Dortmund) and there's **** all snow. Nothing here at work either but apparently its coming...
          Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

            Thick flakes falling for the last hour.

            Wraps up and heads out.

            I am just going outside and may be some time.

                Hmm, these looked more like rabbit, or maybe rat

                Sounds good, although I hesitate to risk getting a pot of paint tipped over my head by a crazed animal rights loonie.

                  Ah, I thought you wanted the real thing.
