Woof Woof Wednesday

It's September, and our house is decorated for Halloween. Truth be told, our house has been decorated for Halloween since the first day of August, because that's the kind of 2020 we're having. That being said, I have not yet done any Halloween photo shoots with my furbabies. So, I decided to look back to see if I had any Halloween photos starring pup Astrid from the past couple of years. I found a photo from 2018 as well as one from 2019, and they look nearly identical. 



It would seem Astrid prefers to turn a cold shoulder to this happy little ghost friend. What did he do to deserve such treatment?

Have a haunted happy Wednesday!

Flashback Doodle of the Day

Here's yet another autumnal flashback doodle. Tomorrow I'll finally start sharing all of the new autumnal and Halloween doodles I've been working on, but for today here's this one I scribbled up last year. It stars pup Astrid and angels Rosie and Sammy.


I created this doodle in early September of last year in honor of Rosie and Sammy's birthday. Astrid did get to meet Rosie before she gained her angel wings, but since Sammy flew to the Rainbow Bridge nearly 15 years before Astrid was even born, she never got to meet him.

Did you know?

Did you know that, unlike humans, cats and dogs can see ultraviolet (UV) light? It was believed for quite some time that cats and dogs could not see UV light, but more recent studies have led to the conclusion that their eyes indeed can. Some researchers use this fact as a potential explanation for why cats and even dogs sometimes seem to stare at things humans cannot see. Because, well, they can see things that humans cannot see. Have you ever found yourself wondering why your cat or dog is staring up into the air or at a wall even though you see nothing there? Such behavior has led some people to believe that cats and dogs can see ghosts or other paranormal activity, but scientists think it is at least in part because cats and dogs can see ultraviolet light.

Oh Astrid!
Cats and dogs may be able to see UV light, but I firmly believe that they can see otherworldly stuff too!

Looks like Astrid isn't afraid of no ghost!

I love that you've decorated for Halloween already. Good for you!

That is funny that Astrid ignores the ghost. I like the drawing. And I always thought my cats were looking at real ghosts. :)

Maybe Astrid is just not ready for shorter days that autumn and the fall holidays bring.

Haha. Not even looking at her friend ... or the camera! Maybe Astrid's spent too much time around cats ... and Eddy specifically!
