Yes, this is a bit of a problem. That's the cat house roof with a thick, heavy sheet of snow and ice slowly sliding off and coming down on the cats' outdoor enclosure — and in the process, it's taking down the fencing material we had stretched across the top to keep The Resident Escape Artist, blind Herbie, from getting out.
After seeing this, I called up our maintenance manager, a Mr. Smith, and asked him what he was going to do about it. "Absolutely nothing, sir," he said. "I'm going to let nature take its course."
I mulled that over and came to agree. That stuff is too heavy and icy to knock loose so it can fall through the fencing — it's compacted like a glacier — so we may just have to wait for spring to re-hang the top of the enclosure. In the meantime, the cats don't seem to mind — they don't plan on venturing outside until late April anyway!
