The days have been unseasonly hot here lately. It went up into the mid 90's this week. For someone who has to always wear a fur coat, this can be a bit unbearable at times.

Don't get me wrong, Dad has air conditioning so I can stay cool, but sometimes that just isn't enough.

That is when I relax on my favorite spot....the fireplace hearth. Those bricks stay so nice and cool. I hop up onto the hearth, lay down and let out a sigh of relief. Mom and Dad always laugh at me but I don't care. This is a great spot! You should all try it out when you get too warm.

I always hang my paw over the edge. It makes me look more nonchalant, don't you think?
