I'm thinking it is more of the fact that she is sensitive to how clothing feels and coats are very bulky. And I've never heard the words "I'm cold" come out of her mouth so I would be waiting a lifetime if waiting for those words lol
I know some might be thinking bundle her up in other ways, but too much clothing would also bother her. She will wear a hat and gloves sometimes though.

So most of the time, I just have to keep my mouth shut, and let her come to her own conclusions.

"I'm COOOOLLLLLDDDD!!!!!!"

me: (carefully avoiding mentioning a coat) "So what do you think you should do?"

Heaven help me if I say, "you could put on your coat." She'll have lost half her left leg to frostbite before she'll admit I'm right.

I can't complain too much, though. She comes by it honestly. I'm the stubbornest person I ever met, besides my own mother, who's worse.
