Rosie in the Pumpkin Patch

I'm in one of those spells when I just sort of want to draw my angel Rosie all the time. So, that's exactly what I'm doing. Today, in the world of doodles, Rosie's picking out a pumpkin!


This is actually going to be part of short little series of doodles starring Rosie and her pumpkin. It will go through to Monday, the first day of October. Can anyone guess the fate of this pumpkin of Rosie's?

As always, we're happily participating in Athena's Caturday Art Blog Hop!


Have an incredible Caturday, friends!

Our Tip of the Day:

As we mentioned yesterday, September is Animal Pain Awareness Month, and so the last days of this month will include tips relating to that very topic. Yesterday's tip was about some of the signs and symptoms you might notice if your furbaby is in pain. Today's tip relates to, of course, taking your kitty in for a veterinary exam should they be showing signs of pain. By way of examination and other potential diagnostic tests, a reason for any pain your furbaby is feeling might be deduced.

Moreover, if or when your veterinarian describes medications to treat or regulate your furbaby's pain, always monitor them closely. This is often especially important after the first doses of a new medication. Depending on the reason for pain, as well as depending on the individual animal, different medications can vary in their efficacy and side effects. Of course, some pain medications will, by nature, cause drowsiness or other such side effects. In some cases, though, there are other things to look out for. For example, some animals have noticeably adverse reactions to certain drugs, such as respiratory distress, hives or swelling, vomiting, or diarrhea. There are also cases when an animal might have a hypersensitivity to certain medications, making typical side effects, such as drowsiness, even more pronounced than anticipated or safe. Therefore, after giving your kitty or pup a pain medication (or, in truth, any medication), be sure to observe them carefully. If you notice any concerning or abnormal side effects in your cat or dog, of course do not hesitate to contact your veterinarian.

We watch the cats constantly, to see if their behavior shows any pain or illness. Am thinking about getting Chili Bruce to the chiropractor; in my opinion, he's changed his jumping habits in the last month. The Hubby thinks I'm being a helicopter mom, but I think I'll set up an appointment now! Cute doodle!
