I just posted on how snuggly Pistol is getting, and have discovered just how REALLY REALLY warm these guys are!!! I'm considering throwing out the gas fireplace and moving in with THEM! If I could just keep him from stepping or rolling on me, neither of us would ever go cold! (Although I have a hunch I'd go cold much, much quicker than he!)
I've decided we should all pool together and come up with a way to make my new idea come true for an alternative method to household heating. For every so-and-so square feet (we can figure out the details later) I saw we assign one horse at night. We'll give him a nice, cozy little room with a nice cozy little horsey bed, train him to poop in a corner that can somehow carry the smell of THAT outdoors (details later as I said), and then there can be a vent on the ceiling of this room that goes into other portions of the house. Horses are absolute furnaces, we should harvest this excess heat at the luxury and comfort of our favorite supersize four leggers!!! Who's with me?!
