Daylight is supposed to be what determines when they start their
winter coats.  But Peppy was extremely early this year.  I'm sure he
started his winter coat by the end of June.  So there seems to be
variances for some reason.

All I know is we had more snow last winter than we've ever had AND we
had a huge blizzard that basically shut everything down for a day.
That's really odd for us.  We're normally cold and very dry...
