You know how Siberian cats are some of the most magnificent, floofy cats to ever exist? That's right. Now, what would make such an already majestic cat even more majestic? We didn't know the answer either, we thought Siberian cats have reached peak magnificence, and yet, user CharlotteFTW on imgur has shown us otherwise when posting pictures of their Siberian cat enjoy snow for the first time. 

It's Sir Locksley, also known as The Lox or Locksdown, enjoying his natural habitat, and he has made the very best of it. And so has his owner, of course, by taking pictures capturing his magnificence. So, thank you CharlotteFTW, for taking a majestic floof and making it extra majestic. 

It seems like the weather in Texas is finally getting better but it's no surprise to anyone at this point as to just how scary this experience has been! Freezing temperatures in a state completely unprepared for it, no power, and now there's "boil water" notice in effect. Poor Texans have gotten hit hard but in times such as these, there are always some heartwarming sights that set a fire in our hearts. 

During what is being called, "snowpocalypse," many people have brought their outdoor animals into their homes, in order to protect them from the freezing temperature. In a Twitter thread started by @yashar, we see photos and hear stories of those who took in animals during these times. 

Very few dog breeds out there will love a snow day like a husky. And this week, all the huskies in Texas are losing their minds. 

With the freshly fallen snow in this normally not so cold place, all the husky owners decided to treat their good boys and girls to a fun day in the freezing snow. And all it took was one viral tweet encouraging Texans to share their beauties for these super hyper cold pups to get the internet shine that they've totally earned. 

Maybe you're one of the people in Texas who are hating the snow more than anything right now, but still- enjoy these happiest of all happy huskies and the positive that they have brought into this freezing week. Allow their joy to warm your heart and soul.

If you're a cat owner, then you know that the myth about cats being cold is wrong. Cats are just misunderstood because for some reason they're always compared to dogs. They have a different way of showing affection, but that doesn't mean that they don't have feelings. 

Tumblr cat owners know that well, and after a post about the most amazing cat went viral, they began sharing their own stories as well, and they are all so heartwarming and beautiful. Cats are amazing, they are not cold-hearted at all, and if you think that they don't have feelings, you are very, very wrong. These stories prove as much

It's mid-January; we're in the throes of winter, and the cold weather is brutal. It's safe to say that my bikini tan lines have hibernated until next summer, and I won't be taking my heated blanket off for the foreseeable future. If you're anything like me, you thrive in the heat and wilt in the cold, much like a flower. And you're probably reading this while bundled up, reminiscing about the days when you could sit outdoors with your friends, the hot sun beating down on your neck, and sipping on cold cocktails. Ugh, throwback. But while the hot weather might be a distant memory, it doesn't mean we can't enjoy these memes about how much we hate winter, the cold, and the lack of tan. These memes are for all you summer babies.

The circle of nope: the mystical creation that is only seen during the coldest time of the year when our curious, ferocious kitties decide to venture out into the snow and experience the magic of winter for the first time and immediately decide........ nope, and turn right back around. Cats vs. snow- the ultimate battale.

It's hilarious in its simplicity because you can just see the decision making process in the paw prints in the snow. "Nope," that's the whole thing. Some cats go: "nope, maybe that way, no that way, aaaaah nope." It's rare for a kitty to love snow. Most cats really, really hate it. But let's be real, it is a lot more amusing for them to be nope-ing right out of it. 

It's winter, and Earnie is about to experience snow for the first time, and the lesson of snow is learned the hard way. It may look like a beautiful, fluffy white blanket, but it is cold.

Meowmoirs: Earnie is not on a leash, the human is. 

Read about Earnie's first time experiencing snow and the pure betrayal of the white blanket. 

Read last week's entry about  Earnie's chasing the Red Dot of Evil (aka, the laser pointer) here!

You can hop back to the first entry about the day of adoption right here as well. 

It's officially snow season! And though we may hate it because cold, wet, omg snow to shovel, and more cold, our doggos love it. And their joy makes the whole shebacle kinda really worth it. Their little doggo smiles and tiny tail wiggles. Yes, we don't mind shoveling some snow if we get to enjoy seeing that.

And since our doggos love the snow so much, and we love them so much, we've put together a whole bunch of snow dogs enjoying the freshly fallen snow for everyone's enjoyment. So, it's time to snuggle at home under some blankets and plan your next snow trip with your dog. And remember: even though snow may be cold, snow doggos make our heart pretty dang warm. 

Now that the cold has come, we're hearing more and more stories of poor animals freezing outside and looking for shelter. This one, unfortunately, started off even more upsetting than more with the cat - later named Kevin - being abandoned in the cold in a dog crate with some dog kibble. But! This story has a happy ending, with the cat being found, taken into a shelter, and finding his way into its new forever home almost right away!

Read more about Kevin's story and check out his gorgeous pictures below!

Brrr... it's getting colder and colder! Winter is well on its way and there's no stopping it. At least one thing we can look forward to is seeing all the different reactions animals have towards wintery things, such as snow and Christmas! 

Those moments of dogs seeing snow for the first time are magical. Or when cats see their first Christmas tree! Granted, they'll end up destroying it but we're talking about that magical moment where they take in all that beauty they see and all you can see is pure excitement. 

Dogs are already pure enough as they are so when you capture them in a moment such as a first-time experience, well, it's simply too much for the heart to take in! Not only do we have first-time experiencers here but we also have quite a few senior doggos that just make our hearts smile! 

We hope you have a wonderful day!

Combine the magic of snow with the majesty of the tiger, and you get some of the most wholesome, chill pictures on the web. Because you know how chill these tigers must have been to sit there for so long and just let the snow cover them, turning themselves from stunning orange and black beauties to the most magical, majestic looking white tigers.

These pictures are the exact type of chill that we need to start our week off with. Cold but snuggly and infinitely powerful and beautiful. So, let this white blanket envelop you and imagine being as chill about it as these lovely big kitties. 

Finally! The weather is starting to get a little bit colder. Hello, chilly weather, hot cocoa, fluffy blankets and coats, we've missed you all. But, even with all of these things, one of the absolute best things in the world is seeing our adorkable doggos splashing around in the rain, modeling their tiny little coats. 

Not all of them love the rain, that's fair, we don't all love it either. Not all of them love the coats either, but listen, sometimes it's necessary. And they look adorable wearing them as well. That's just an added bonus though. So, to start getting used to the gloomy but loveable cold weather that's coming now, we've prepared for you a collection of the most wintery tumblr doggos wearing their adorable raincoats!

Winter is soon going to be upon us, and our face masks aren't enough to protect our poor noses from the cold. So why not pop one of these adorable nose wamers underneath your mask, and make sure it gets extra warmth and extra protection this winter? Come on, you know they're too cute to resist! You can purchase them on Etsy, here.
