Yes, we are on our third round of snow for the week which is to last into Thursday. And, then, just to make things fun, we will get a fourth round late on Friday. The humans, amazingly, are grumbling, but we think it is awesome. As we have been doing all week, we just want to share a few pictures from our Snow Week – Day 3.

Queen Natasha led the charge around Sibe Quentin.

Cheoah and Typhoon played the most – almost non-stop all day.

Q-Tip did his best to blend in to the snow.

Frankie still found time to do the serious business of perimeter patrol.

Kiska has also completed her perimeter patrol and declares Sibe Quentin safe.

With a long day of playing in the snow, it is now time for a nap.

Don’t tell anyone I like to nap in front of the fireplace.
