The origin of “It’s raining cats and dogs”
What is it now? First you’re complaining that we cats don’t use the balcony, but when I do, you’re still moaning?
Just because you like the balcony better on sunny days, doesn’t mean that I share your preferences. I like cold and wet surfaces a lot! Didn’t you know that cats are aquatic animals? Or where did you think the saying “it’s raining cats and dogs” comes from?

Someone needs to go out in the wet and pick them up!

Mom says I’m too stubborn to care about sensible choices. Bah. I prefer “unique”. /Tessa

Rain is OK as long as it is not falling directly on us!
Not that we would know as we do not get to go out :/

Hm. I like inspecting the shower, too, although not at the same time as humans are showering. But I don’t mind the wet floor. So even though you’ve never been outside, you still know what you’re talking about. /Tessa

Haha, you can never satisfy humans, right? 🙂 Goro goes out on deck in rain, too. He comes back inside with wet belly! Kitties are totally aquatic…!

Yes!!! Goro is my hero! He knows how to live the good life! /Tessa

Eric and Flynn used to sit in the middle of the lawn when it rained. Sometimes they would be soaked right through and I would towel dry them. You guessed it, they went right back out and got soaked again.

Hahaha!! I LOVE Flynn and Eric. They really had a lot in common with Kajsa and me. Ok, Kajsa doesn’t like rain. She actually blames Mom when it’s raining! /Tessa

Um, Tessa…we’ll pass on the rain. We hate getting wet!

As much as I like gifts, I think I’ll refuse this one. Finland is not precisely known for its long and dry summers, so we probably get enough rain anyways! /Tessa
