Mancat Monday

Today's Mancat Monday post stars two mancats, with a guest appearance from Thimble.



The two mancats you see of course include Evan, as well as our neighbor mancat. He's a friendly little guy who comes over for treats on a regular basis. He used to announce his arrival by jumping at the window and hanging from the window screen by his claws. I've since put an outdoor cat shelter just outside the window, though, and so our neighbor kitty now just happily sits on top of that and stares at us until treats appear in front of him.

Happy Monday to all!

Tip of the Day

Yesterday, we mentioned how to prepare your furbaby if you are leaving them to travel for the holidays. Today, we are starting a short series of tips on what to do if you are traveling with your furbaby. First and foremost, if you plan to take your furbaby with you on a trip this Christmas, or any time of the year, talk to your veterinarian. Discuss with them your furbaby's health and whether traveling is safe for them. Some furbabies, such as those who are geriatric or who are suffering from an illness, might not be good candidates for traveling, especially long distance. If you are in need of traveling with such a furbaby, though, have a detailed discussion with your veterinarian on what you must do to take all precautions to keep your furbaby as healthy and happy as possible during travels. In some cases, even for young and healthy kitties or pups, some form of sedation might be in their best interest for traveling. This is another detail that you must discuss with your veterinarian. It is always our furbaby's best interest that we must have in mind, so ask your veterinarian any and all questions you have regarding keeping your furbaby happy and healthy during travels.

Evan is keeping a close eye on the neighbor cat.....we have two that come by for treats regularly and Teddy comes to get me wherever I am when they appear. Teddy is the "EARLY WARNING DEVICE".

Hugs, Pam

That is so nice, you have a regular visit from such a beautiful mancat. Evan, you are one handsome ginger cat sweetie.

We don't think we'd be as nice to that neighborhood cat. We don't like visitors much.

It must be great to have some visitors over once in a while. Evan, we hope they don't eat up all the treats from your house. He looks like such a nice mancat. Thanks for sharing. Have a wonderful day.

Neighbor cat is a cutie, and it's good that Evan doesn't get all hissy when he's outside, looking in! Neighbor cat is a mooch...

Neighbor kitties are friends to the humans, but we kitties at this house are not fond of "introoders".

That's a fun doodle!
