Cottonpaw's body feels frigid. She's gotten so used to huddling beneath the stars with her Clanmates, even with her many weeks residing in the medicine den, that sleeping beneath pine trees and atop damp ground... it is far too uncomfortable to say the least. The slop beneath her nearly soaks to her bone, if not for the fluffier nature of her fur as of late. She's heard some cats call it a leafbare coat, and that not every feline is blessed to grow one out as much. She feels as if it's as much a curse, as grooming out the humidity seems like a lost cause.
"It's... so chilly," she complains, pulling her tail in closer to her body. She scans clusters of cats, some seeking refuge in quickly made dens while others resign to sleeping in the open. Maybe if she can find one of her friends, or Snakehiss... Damn, she'd even try curling up in beside Sootstar, if her mother would allow it. Her ears fold back, "Since when did it start getting so cold?" she continues. Being born in leaf bare and only truly remembering the tail end of it, she's not experienced much of the cold.
