Clutch (noooooooooooooooooooo!)

3 days ago I tried to shift and ground gears when my clutch was all the way to the floor, I feared the obvious worst. But as the car heated up it got better, it only does not shift when it is cold? Does anyone know what would cause this, I would REALLY hate to replace the clutch unless 100% necessary!

I think he has already replace the clutch, I hope he had the cylinders checked for cracks. that may have been the origin of his problem.
