I HATE jumping into a cold pool; sure, call me a whimp, but anyway ... Does anyone have suggestions to combat this? I seem to recall that English Channel swimmers used to coat themselves with something (Vaseline?) to protect themselves from the extreme conditions of the channel. Is there a strategy that someone could share with me? Do body suits help?
Thanks for the advice. You can email me direct with an answer if you want at PeoriaBums@aol.com.

*for your reference...soft paws are nail caps for cats, and they prevent the cat from scratching up furniture or anything else. They can keep their claws, but just have a little cap over them to prevent damage.
on the web, search for soft paws..that's the name of the product, and they were designed by a vet. It's worth the 17 dollars. When I put them on all three of my kids (er, uhm, cats), they didn't even really know it. And, the littlest rotten one was "scratching" on her favorite corner of a chair--and voila, no damage at all. She didn't even recognize that her nails had caps on them.
Good luck Jean! It's the best hting in the world for cat parents!!!!
