Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ When it's raining and Shadow still wants to be outside, she heads for an old lounge in the carport to ensure dry comfort.
You can see the dampness on the woods behind her.

Let it rain and rain
Watch from comforting cushions

AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes
I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

Really beautiful photo of yours, Shadow : )

You're a very smart cat, Shadow. We wish Lindy would come in out of the rain. She has a lovely dog house but she will not go into it, rain or snow or scorching heat. We don't know why. And we don't have a carport with a nice comfy place for her to keep dry.

Wow - so pretty! It looks like a painting.
You'll get damp in that lovely fur Shadow!
What a fabulous shot of a beautiful cat. It almost looks like a painting.
Shadow appears bigger than I thought - such a beauty
You're a really handsome fellow, you know that, Shadow? We'd love to have you visit us -- but wait until the sun comes back! It's pretty gloomy here these days!
