Fall can never come fast enough!

^ This.

I know the feeling too well.

It’s 104°F at the moment. >.<

I got 108 today and forecast for the net two days also. Bleh! It's enough to make one want to shave their fur off short!

nuuuuu don't melt, snep! :C

I know that feeling. That’s why I go swimming. Here’s one cat that doesn’t hate water!

Me too! I just got some new goggles so I can go swimming at the local pool.

It does take the edge off =)

Same here!
It most certainly does! <3

dawwwwww *fans more cool air*

Oh my god...Don't melt!

Here in Indiana, we can go from frigid winter to the surface of Venus then back down to just under ideal room temperatures in 48 hours. In fact, we really don't have a "Winter" any more... We just have an extended Autumn and Spring that happens to co-exist in the same 3 month period.

As a fellow Hoosier fur, I can attest to that fact.

Southern Indiana, maybe... but in the northern counties, winter can be downright NASTY.
But summer is just as terrible, in the opposite ways. Bugs, scorching heat, soaring humidity...

The worst part is the near-total lack of a Spring or an Autumn. The trees turn colorful for a few days around mid-October, and by Halloween the ground is frozen solid and we're getting snow. By February, your farts will freeze as we hit single-digits (F) or even less, and the lake-effect snow drifts up like sand dunes. There's the customary March blizzard that always hits that month, and it stays stubbornly frozen until sometime in May... when within a week we'll go from freezing to baking. Then we roast at 90 to 100+ degrees F until October again.

It's so disgusting!

Indeed >.<

Yes, heat is a pain, but I would be willing to deal with it to be fluffy!

So incredibly true.

Oh, I can't agree enough. I'm literally melting here...

yeah, this is one issue i bring up with people wishing to like as their fursonas IRL "have you put any thought into just how you are going to deal with Summer covered in FUR?"

--Rick

If I became my fursona .. I'd also have MAGIC .. so. ^_^

Very much this. It's over 100F/37C here. I can't stand it.

So very true. Not a fan of the summer heat. Not fun

Poor kitty

Is it strange that I'm fluffy AND I love the summer? Probably because most of the time, I'm stuck indoors in the cold, I guess.
Very cute drawing, by the way!

Gah, I feel

As an arctic fox ninetails, I AGREE ENTIRELY WITH THIS PICTURE. *needs more fans*

Same frame as this I drew up a few years ago.

I personally hate hot and oppressive humid days.

Kitty is not the only one with their fan on full blast. It's only 80 degrees on Long Island, but I'm not gloating; the humidity is NOT helping!

I know your pain D:

Me in anything above 17C... gets ugly when the humidity hits too.

Normally I don't talk about spirituality and furry art, but do I ever feel this image on a deep level.

Yeah, I HATE heat and humidity too. Only problem with autumn is that it's all too brief. But for that month or so - cool, clear, crisp, and fall color everywhere. It's my favorite time of year, too.

*melts into the carpet*

This is why I moved back up to Washington State. Sure, we may get snow, but we don't get weeks of 105°+ heat and 90° nights like in San Diego.

I'm from San Diego originally lol I know what that's like! I'm just glad the cost of living is cheaper where I am now, because Tucson gets hotter, and AC is a necessity.

I hear you about cost of living! I still couldn't get ahead with a military pension *and* a good paying tech job. Here I can live comfortably on just the pension.

Ayep, been hot here in SoCal. Got the fan blasting to the side of me. I refuse to use the air conditioner since it tends to irritate my throat.

Winter where are you?
Im so dont like to live without you.

Yup.

Fans are the only breeze we get here in the summer >.<

*has tons of snow shipped in to you and packs it thickly all around you* Summers are great, I s'pose, but certainly not when they're above 100F. x.x And when you don't work in a business that closes for the summer... it's just like any other season, only really really hot. o.o

Yes. YES. The coyote in me feels this all too completely.

Shit, it's me....

ohhh yes, it´s fuc...g hot this summer and dry as shit to, we haven´t seen a drop of rain for 3 mouths now and everything is literately dying around us, and it´s shit load of hot up to 50 C. around here

true dis.

We got record temperatures all week, heat spike is thursday x.x'

I'll be glad when fall gets here because I'm tired of all this summer tourist season busyness

Living in central California, I can totally relate--perhaps even a little too much!
Try setting a bowl of ice cubes in front of that fan! Jury-Rigged Air Conditioning can save you a lot of summertime stress (and money on the electric bill)! >w<;;

Agreed. Over here in Germany we are hitting 35°C on a daily basis recently - which sucks big time. Going to the pool or lake isn't an option either because both are overcrowded with such weather.

what annoys me the most, however, is not so much the heat, but rather that some idiotic politicians (primarily in the US) still deny te existence of climate change - even though this change is obviously happening and leading to more and more extreme weather phenomena every year.

Hehe... 26°C (78°F) in Saint Petersburg (North-West Russia) :D

I can relate so much..

My apartment's got a wall that's basically just glass (big windows and a door that's 2/3 glass, and the windows can't be opened) and it's hit straight on by the afternoon and evening sun, making it an oven from 2-4 pm and onwards.

If I don't air out from noon-ish till the sun goes down, it's impossible to sleep. And yesterday was the worst yet, a real scorcher. The fan couldn't even cool off the air, no matter what setting I set it to, and I aired out practically ALL DAY too!

They say it might rain Saturday, and I just hope this time it happens. We haven't had rain in ages, and all the grass has turned yellow.

that sounds awful. We have a westward facing window as well, which makes it so our 2nd floor gets quite hot in the afternoon/evening. I air out the upstairs as well, but just starting when the sun sets.

Sleeping with the fan on is a must. I'll keep my fingers crossed for that rain for ya. I don't think our relief from the heat comes until next Tuesday

If you change that feline for a porxupine... you'll have me! 108°F!

Goes a long way to explaining the persistence of the 'skinny' fetish.

Sometimes a fur just wants to be cool.

tomorow afternoon its gonna be 95F/35C here where i liive

Agreed! I am melting. I should probably use damp towels like that!

I feel ya! It was 111F here yesterday, and is expected to be 110F today. Now I'm ok with the heat, but cripes, this is ridiculous! Stay cool!

That *is* ridiculous! I hope you stay cool!

Put that cute fluffy in a bathtub with cool water with flower pedals and a cooler loaded with cool drinks and play some good music ^^ i bet that would make the beautiful fluffy happy

wonderful work
you nailed it
the goddess of the mountain defeated by heat

Definitely a downside of fluff that furries never seem to consider.

I wonder if it's possible to set a hot tub to "cold"...

thats why we have a deep basement with a shower:
So that snowleopardesses can remain cool.

I know that feeling, it makes me wish I was by the ocean and take a dip in it

I agree 100%!! It's tooooooo damn...... HOT!!!!

With all that fur I bet it would be damn hot.

Oh, this is precisely how I've been feeling for the past 4 weeks. This summer is hell... thanks you for giving it a positive side with your art, Kacey!
