Catblogging - Window Shopping

Most people are willing to take steps to reduce energy costs, but sometimes doing so has unpleasant side effects. In this picture you can see a good example. Bruce keeps the southern curtains closed during the day to keep the house cooler and save on the air conditioning bills. The problem is, when I'm sitting at the window watching for potential meals, the lighting is poor and you can't see the details of the striping on my back. Worse, the neighbors can only see my face and so they're cheated out of enjoying my full beauty.

I do understand that everything's a tradeoff and you have to take the bad with the good. There are, however, limits, and as soon as the price of oil drops $2 a barrel I want the curtains open and the whole window available for preening.

Respectfully submitted,

Ferdinand T. Cat
