Cat huts

A cat colony lives in the empty lot adjacent to our apartment complex.  With the recent snowy weather, hubby and I worry about these feral felines' fate. 

How will they stay warm in this weather?

Luckily for the cats, many kindhearted neighbors have reached out to help.  Some constantly put out tasty treats.

Monday's Special:  Stinky sardines

Those who are a bit more crafty designed and assembled small "cat huts."  Built out of old pet carriers and cardboard boxes these units are insulated with straw and old blankets.

We're all hoping that they'll stay warm this winter.

Hurrah for The Curragh

Today we ate at the Curragh Irish Pub.  This place offers yummy food, folksy music, and friendly waitstaff.  Here are some photos of decor details:
