A warm day in mid February meant His Royal Highness finally got to go outside again.
.

.
Being a fair weather feline who dislikes getting his feet wet…
.

.
Lord Dudley works hard to avoid the snow.
.

.
Bare earth is something to be savored.
.

.
And rolled in.
.

.
Homage was paid to his favorite rock.
.

.
I swear I don’t know what his obsession is with that stone, but he rubs and rolls all over it every single time.

He’s a regal feline for sure. I’m sure NO cat ever wants to get their paws wet under any circumstances. His Lordship and that rock have a special relationship, don’t judge, lol.

I wonder if the rock holds warmth? Maybe?
I’m glad he was able to get out and enjoy a good day; a nice roll in the earth never hurt anyone. 🙂

He loves rolling in the dirt. He doesn’t love the wet rub down when he comes inside however…

Nigel P Kitty owns all of my stuff…stands and rubs his head against the back of my chair and the arm rest of the love seat.

Just like horses, cats need to roll. It stimulates their skin, and helps create a warm barrier against the cold and damp. Dust gets trapped in their hair, and creates heat traps. It also protects against insects and mites, even when there should not be any.

None of which… as a 95% indoor cat… he needs.

I suspect the rock provides just the right angle for His Lordship to self-massage after such vigorous outdoor workouts.
