Hopefully this winter won’t get as bad as the polar vortex period we experienced last year. For those of us in regions that experience cold weather (whatever, California and Florida…50 degrees does not count), the winter really tests our tolerance for snow, sleet, and ice.
But it isn’t just us humans who feel that bone-chilling cold. Despite being covered in fur, our pets have to keep warm during the winter months, too! Check out these absolutely adorable animals doing their best to stay cozy. Some employ more innovative tactics than others, but each and every one makes me want to cuddle up with them and a cup of cocoa.
