After an unusually warm November and Chanukah, Winter arrived two days ago, in the form of 100 km per hours winds, and this morning at 2:17 am, after a loud crack of thunder and lightning, the rains that Israel so desperately needs.
Yesterday, sensing that this deluge was upon us, I tried to rescue a pregnant cat that lives in my garden, give her a warm place to sleep at night, but I missed that window, she is too old to be taken in and even act partially domesticated. The best I can hope is that she continue to come to my door, so I can feed her, and that she is sensible enough to find a warm and safe place to give birth to her kittens.
Taking Raphaela to Gan has become much more complicated as well, I dress her in heavy winter coats and can barely close the straps on the car seat. I rush with her into the nursery room so she stays dry, and then must make another trip in the rain and the mud to get her supplies and her stroller. I worry that Raphaela will get another cold, because of the changes in temperature from the outside to the inside.
I can't remember how I dealt with Raphaela in the Winter last year, of course she was much smaller and didn't do much.

colds are caused by viruses, not changes in temperature.
Objectively I know that, LOL, but the Polish genes inside me feels like if I don't dress her warmly enough, she will get sick.
