The Snow Liger

Griffin Westmore hated winter with a passion. Her feline nature made her long for a romp through the forest, a light spring breeze ruffling her whiskers and sunshine warming her fur. But since she now lived on Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, where the only two seasons were winter is near and winter is here, she was all out of luck.

Grumbling, she stood at the window and watched the snow fall, adding to the thick, white blanket already covering the ground. Next to her, two of the cats pressed their noses to the glass and stared in the same direction. “You hate this too, right?”

Instead of an answer, the cats jumped down from the windowsill and trotted toward the kitchen.

“Thanks for the support, girls.” Sighing, Griffin turned away from the window and threw herself down on the couch.

The poor piece of furniture creaked and groaned under her weight, and Griffin sent a quick prayer to the Great Hunter, hoping it wouldn’t collapse under her. Sometimes, she forgot that human furniture wasn’t built to accommodate a 400-pound liger shifter. When the couch survived, she arched her back in a lazy stretch and stared up at the ceiling.

Last winter, her first in Michigan, hadn’t been so bad. She had snuggled up to her human mate in their den and only gotten up to raid the fridge every now and then. But this year, Jorie didn’t have time to hole up in bed with her. First, she had tried to write 50,000 words in November for this crazy thing called NaNoWriMo, and now she was working on a short story for a Valentine’s anthology.

Griffin was Jorie’s biggest fan and supported her writing in every way she could, but her feline ego couldn’t help feeling a little neglected. She’d already finished her duties as a saru commander for the day, and there were only so many naps a cat could take. Just as she contemplated getting up to make dinner, the door opened and Jorie emerged from her writing cave.

Griffin immediately sat up. Agatha and Emmy rushed over from the kitchen and wound themselves around Jorie’s ankles; even Will appeared from somewhere and lolloped over to Jorie on his three legs. All of them meowed plaintively, as if Griffin hadn’t fed them all day.

Snarling at the cats, Griffin strode over and pulled Jorie into her arms. “Mine. Go away.”

Jorie laid her cheek on the hollow below Griffin’s collarbone, wrapped one arm around her, and reached up with the other hand to run her fingers through Griffin’s hair, making her purr.

Griffin kneaded against Jorie’s back and lifted her upper lip to let Jorie’s coconut-and-spring-grass scent brush over the roof of her mouth.

After a few moments of pure feline heaven, Jorie pulled back and looked up at her. “You okay? Lately, you look a lot like Grumpy Cat.”

“You’re watching too many YouTube videos,” Griffin grumbled.

Jorie winked at her. “It’s called doing research when you’re a writer. I need your help with that, by the way.”

“Watching YouTube videos?”

“Doing research.
