Okay, who wooda thunk it, I am thankful for rain. Yep, seriously. We’ve had a fair amount of rain on and off this week, but it seems like we never know if it is going to be more on or more off. So why am I thankful for that? We’ll, actually I am thankful that it is here this week when it is a bit warmer instead of last week when it was a lot colder. We could really have a bunch of that white stuff if that were the case.
We are also thankful because each day of rain gets us closer to the warmth of Spring. Wait a minute, isn’t Spring a rainy season too? Hmmmmmm, let’s just hope that silly groundhog isn’t any better at weather guessing than the goofy ones on the television.
Have a fun and thankful Thursday everyone. Remember, adopt cats, we deserve it!!!!! More Forever Homes More Often! Purrrrr! Zip! Later!
I’m not sure what’s better myself… cold weather here again. They delayed the schools 2 hours tomorrow for some reason. Only 10% chance of precipitation. Silly Texans!
My human wishes you could send some of that rain over here – California is having a big, unending drought!
We have enough of the endless rain here. We had a few days of sun but now the rain is back again. Well at least it is not snow. Have a tremendous Thursday Brian and stay dry.
Best wishes Molly
Wez flooded with rain Brian.. I want some snow to play in 🙂 xxoxxx
Mollie and Alfie
Wish the rain was off in the UK
Hmmm…yup…I think I would prefer the rain too. But not freezing rain – that’s dangerous!!!
Happy Thursday kitties!
xo Catherine
We are also thankful that it has all been rain and not ice or snow. We are enjoying the little bit warmer weather too. Hope all of you have a fantastic day.
I am so sick of the white stuff.. we have had more this year than i remember having in a long long time. stay warm!
I agree with you, I dislike the rain but a blizzard would be more worse, that’s true.
Have a comfy thursday :o)
Brian we are with Sparkle we can have some rain here if you want to send it..we await Autumn and you Spring! we all get a taste of seasons to come in bloggie world!! have a great Thursday hugs and loves Fozziemum xxx
We’re kinda hoping for some rain too. We had nice cooler weather until that silly Weatherman said the cooler weather would stay for a while and WHAM! We’ve have super HOT days since. We think our Weatherman might be a groundhog in disguise.
If anyone would like to take our rain you are welcome but you need to bring your own buckets. The only good thing is that we don’t have to listen to Mum moaning about having to clear the drive of snow to get the car out.
Luv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
We’d take rain too, right now. What a miserable blizzard yesterday. Our human says it was her worst trek home (partially on foot, partially by bus) in years, more years than she can remember. 🙁
Here’s to Spring…wherever she’s hiding.
And here we need rain to ease the searing heat of recent times. Last night was 41 º C (105.8 º F). We are being cooked, literally. =(
Kisses
Hmm, we think we agree with this. At least until it starts raining here and doesn’t stop for a week. MOL!
Happy thursday, furriends!
XOXO
Rain is so much better than snow, wish we would just get rain too

Oh Brian we 2nd that on monsoons. I’d rather have rain any day than piles and piles of snow. Well actually my peeps would ’cause my feet never ever go outside
Hugs
Madi your bfff
Yeah we have been getting rain lately but it will change tomorrow, back with the winter weather again or so they say. It is 26 degrees here now with high NW winds, brrrr….
Hope it doesn’t rain too much… say hello yo all for us…
Purrs,
Izzy & Sisters
We are thankful you got the rain and not the snow, it’s not fun driving in this or having that cold white stuff on hooves or paws, as pretty as it is. Brrr. Stay warm and stay dry!
We do need rain, but got snow!
Well, we certainly have not been short of rain at this end either. Tommy tells us that the fields are just like giant soaked sponges. And today, it was 12C. That’s 53F!!!
Purrs,
The Chans
I would much prefer rain to snow any day, Brian…except of course when I am out camping in my tent. Then, I want sunshine and nothing else.
Happy Thursday, pal.

We agree about the rain. We dont LIKE rain, but it sure is better than snow. Rain disappears faster.
Same here – we have had cold but no snow or ice so far!
glad you’re happy but us brits have had enough rain,xx Speedy
um yep, we’d take monsoons over the 2 ft of snow we have right now, any day!
Yow Brian wif all da snow we haz had me wunderz what Spring will bring 😉
we iz goin have enuff moisture fer da ground….
Me wuud not like a Monsoon or any of dem wild stormz n ice iz scarey…..we at leest nose how to handle snow here 😉
Lub frum Nylablue xxx
no chance of that here….brrrrr
Wow! You must seriously dislike winter. We would take snow any day over rain, especially mom!
Well, you know, Brian – we all love the rain, and some of us even love the rain. Ciara and Lightning love to sit in the rain, not so much Phantom. And as for Mom, she says she hates the cold and the snow, but at least there isn’t any mud.
Stay warm and dry.
Woos – Phantom, Ciara, and Lightning
We have flooding everywhere here so we are not sure if monsoons are better than blizzards. Hope they both stop soon.
Dip and Elliot x
We agree with you. We just missed ice by one degree the other night. We are hoping all the stoopy groundhogs are just as wrong as the weather guessers are most of the time. We want Spring! Purrs and paw-pats, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
we are having lots of rain here too and will be so glad when the weather picks up and hopefully some sun shine. x
Any takers for frozen tree and road weather??? We have it and we will gladly give it up to whoever wants a frosty kingdom!!! Well, our neighbor’s horse is starting to shed could he be better at predicting spring coming soon…..oh we hope so! Stay dry, warm and inside=^Y^=Thomas and theBoyz
We would not mind rain.
This Winter we have had more snow than
any Winter we remember. At least a good few years anyway.
We do not mind the snow(we are indoor cats) but it would
be warmer with rain. Today, it is cold!
Mind you, only Mom has to go outside 😉 heehee
You look cozy on the couch Brian !
Purrs Georgia and Julie,
Treasure,JJ
and Angels Tiger and Tillie
Brian you must have sent the rain my way! But we needed some but it’s cold rain!!! BRRRR
At least with snow, it’s pretty until it starts turning dirty. At this point, we don’t know which is worse…rain or snow.
You ARE lucky not to get the freezing rain we got. It’s so treacherous to walk. When the sun starts to melt the ice, it’s falling in large chunks off buildings, trees and wires. That’s as dangerous as falling on the ice.
We’re getting the icy rain but thankfully it’s melting the snow. When is spring coming….
We’ve got that cold stuff again and snow coming for the weekend. Think I would prefer the rain too. Have a great Thursday.
I don’t think we can take much more rain here in the Westcountry without sinking Brian. It has been torrential since before Christmas with just the odd couple of hours now and again when the sun has tried to shine. Tuesday night we had gales with wind gusts of 95mph recorded. We are waiting for the next storm at the weekend and have been told it is expected to be worse than the last which has caused widespread damage.
Yes, rain is good! We got some too, and we really needed it.
Just ignore that stupid groundhog. He doesn’t know what he is doing. I think he’s pulling some sort of a scam. I’ll bet he makes the big bucks for his annual “ritual.”
We’ve had an eensy bit of rain….could sure use more though! Feel free to send some our way!
Brian we are so glad your temps are milder and we hope it continues to be better weather for you folks! Have a wonderful weekend kitties!
Me too agree with you , it’s much better with rain than snow !
XOXO
We would purrfur warm weather and sunshines. We are tired of COLD and we are tired of RAIN.
We had 10′ of snow Wednesday, but with work closed for the day, we were happy about being snowed in.
10″ not feet LOL
Glad you had some rain! Having spent some time in the Philippines, I am familiar with monsoons. 🙂
it is a tough call for me.. the last time we had monsoon type weather our roof leaked..
but if you prefer rain, then YAY! rain!! 🙂
We could swap you some white stuff for some sunshine? It’s too hot where we are, so we’d be happy to take either rain or white stuff. *packing up a box of sunbeams for you* Hope to see you in Thankful Thursday again buddy. Thanks for always supporting us. XXX :=o)
