Pretty Grim Kitty

This is the first time I've seen the terracotta cat in weeks.  We've had a lot of melting the last few days.  He's looking pretty grim though.  I will need to go out with a wire brush and get the white lichen removed this spring.  Since he is 10 inches high, you can see we have a way to go but it is a start.  No sign of snow this week so hopefully the melting will continue.
