Greetings, my fellow port swillers!
With the rain pattering steadily on the roof of Port Swiller Manor and the dog snoring comfortably at the foot of the bed, it was mighty hard for Ol’ Robbo and Mrs. R to stagger to their collective feet this morning. The thing lead Mrs. R to ask an interesting question: Do rainy days like this have the same kind of soporific effect on dogs as they do on people?
Frankly, I’ve no real idea. I’ve never noticed it with the cats, but then again cats sleep about 20+ hours per day anyway. Dogs? As I say, I dunno. But I’ll bet it’s possible.

Dreary days do seem to slow down the beagle-mutt, although he is quite cat-like in his sleeping preferences.

Yes they do. Or at least they use rainy days as an excuse. Unless you’re at the park. Or squirrels!

If the much-thinner-than-usual attendance at my parish’s 0800 Mass yesterday is any indication, it certainly has that effect on human beings.
