Festive Friday

A new season means a new bow on Atrid's collar. She loves showing off her springtime flower.


Sometimes she even gets a little help showing it off.


Thanks, Toby. You're a great photobomber assistant.

The other three feline furbabies would have helped Astrid show off her bow as well, but they were too busy enjoying the Spring scenery elsewhere...

 

Happy Friday!

Our Tip of the Day:
Remember that, like us, cats and dogs can suffer from seasonal allergies. Open windows and walks outside can spur symptoms for them just as they can for us. Keep an eye out for signs such as frequent scratching or licking, bald or hot spots, rubbing at the eyes, redness of the eyes, redness or rashes on the skin, and sneezing or even coughing. If your furbaby shows any such signs, or any other signs indicative of potential allergies, consult your veterinarian. There are medications, such as antihistamines, that cats and dogs can take to help alleviate their allergy symptoms. But, it's of course best to consult a veterinarian regarding what medications are best suited for your furbaby and their allergies.

Oh Astrid, we love your flower. How fun to see all three kitties looking out the door. Bet there is lots of goodies outside there.

The bow is lovely. The picture of you all sniffing/looking at the outdoors is precious...

Astrid looks beautiful with her new flower. We finally got some window whiffies yesterday- they are the best. Great allergy tip, Prancie sometimes takes children's Benadryl for her allergies- she hates it, but it works. And I agree, always check with the vet first to be sure something is safe and get the correct dose.

Oh, Astrid, that is definitely your color! We got our prints yesterday and we love, love, love them! Mom will go find frames for them and we'll let you see them. And, we are practically neighbors!

Wonderful bow! And how cool you have a screen door and can get right into the whiffies

You look beautiful, Astrid! Great tips on the allergies too...surprisingly, Mudpie's asthma seems better *knock on wood* now that spring has sprung!!!

Love Astrid's lavender flower. Lisbeth has one like that on her collar. It was a gift from her boyfriend, Charles. Looks like a purrfect day for bird and critter TV. XOCK, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
