We’ve been having some mystery issues with our furnace and water heater that are (hopefully) now resolved. But the other day the heat went out in the evening which here in northern Minnesota means that the house started to get cold pretty fast. Because of this potential situation we have a few electric space heaters that keep things bearable while we wait for the nice furnace men to arrive.

Auguste, our almost 18 year old orange and white tabby cat, does not have any problem with this situation. He and the heater became fast friends and I suspect that he’d be fine with this being a permanent feature.
