Nope. No way they could live here year round (I'm also in Massachusetts)...gets way too cold.





Now I've heard plenty of people say they will do fine in temps as low as 40F. As I'm sure you know, Massachusetts gets that lovely white stuff and gets far below 40F. Russians don't like that.



Me personally, I let mine out in the summer mostly. Spring and fall I'll let him out on warm days but bring him in at night...
