A Tiny White Kitten Watches the Frost on the Window

AI imagewhite kittenfrosty windowwreath

The glass is covered in lacy frost, a pine wreath hangs in the window, and a small white kitten sits on the sill with her paws together. Her pink ears point forward and her pale eyes look out at the world, while a folded blanket and a dishcloth rest on the ledge beside her. The room behind her is calm and slightly cluttered, and the winter light is soft and clear.

Windowsills are among a kitten's favorite places, and watching the weather is a fine kind of entertainment. Cold glass can chill a small body, so a folded blanket on the sill helps. Make sure the window is closed or screened, since kittens are quick and can jump unexpectedly. White cats may have more sensitive ears and skin in strong sun, so talk to your vet about protection if she sits in a bright window. Hang the wreath where she cannot chew it, because pine needles and decorations can upset her stomach.

We'll call her Frosty. She sits perfectly still, a little white shape against the white world, enjoying the quiet. In a minute she'll hop down and race through the house, but for now the frost belongs to her. It is a peaceful picture of winter from the cozy side of the glass, with a small observer who looks perfectly content to watch the frost grow for a while.
