From my notebook:

• With the frigid cold temperatures, the Oklahoma Alliance for Animals is making sure as many outdoor dogs and cats have access to warm, dry, insulated shelters and straw. (Facebook)
• The Tulsa Botanic Garden shared a photo of 'White Cloud' muhly grass in the Tandy Floral Terraces in bloom. (Instagram)
• The Tulsa SPCA shared that January is National Walk Your Dog Month. Dogs need plenty of exercise throughout the entire year, and even a short walk around the block on a cold day can make a big difference. (Facebook)
