Mayor Whiskers: “Meow meow meeeeow!”

Polar Bear: “Happy furry new year to you too, mayor Whiskers!”

Clement Frost gave a New Year concert with Polar Bear. You must excuse the mistakes on the piano, it’s not easy to play with bear paws…

Preparations. My sim is a polar bear, so don’t expect anything too fancy. ;P But it’s got the essential… snow!

Final decorations.

Rudolph the red nosed doggie…

What was your worst Winterfest present?

Clement Frost gave my polar bear a tombstone for Winterfest. Was it as a thanks for the broken fossil my polar bear gave him as a gift? He also gave him clothes… as if telling him to stop wearing a bear costume, but it’s not happening soon.

Dog poop?!? Some deserve it…

Back in the days, we got bowling alleys during dates. Times have changed, time is hard…

This is a good reason to stop the gift giving tradition. Such a waste of money and so many people give junk!

Living outdoors is not always easy… or comfortable.

When you have to go, you have to go, freezing cold or not.

And forget fishing, because the lake is frozen.

“What about ice fishing?”

It’s against regulation.

“That makes no sense! It’s an Inuit and polar bear tradition! How do brown bears survive in winter?”

Sorry, in the South, brown bears hibernate during winter, kind of…

“What about gathering?”

Only if you’re very lucky…

You can always grill meat…

Or learn to cook and get a stove…

“Very bear-like.”

Living outdoors also mean you have to face the blizzard…

…face to face!

But it’s all worth it in the end, because you live one with nature!

Nobody is more fit to participate to a polar bear plunge than an actual polar bear… In fact, it became, for polar bears, a national day!

It’s not as easy for everyone, at least, not for Clement Frost, despite of his name… At least, we know where he got it.

But here’s a secret. It’s kinda cold for polar bears too!

Nanoq is a Sim Inuit who found his spirit animal in the polar bear. He decided to wear a polar bear suit as a tribute.

However, because of the climate changes, he was forced to move South.

He found home in Brindleton, where animals are welcome. Furries might be as well?

Nanoq Qaqortoq means ursus maritimus in Inuktitut. You thought Simlish was hard to learn? Give a try for the Inuit’s language.
