Caturday Art: Birthday Gift Grossness?

Yesterday was the birthday of my mom (the furbabies' grandma, also known as Gammy). As always, we're now here to share the weird and wacky doodle I scribbled up as my mom's birthday card. It stars one of my parents' twelve cats, this one being Gilly It also stars some oh so considerate gifts that Gilly may or may not have left in the litter box. I'll be the first to admit that there might indeed be a grossness factor to this one, but I scribbled it up and gave it to my mom regardless.

Wasn't that so sweet of fuzzy Gilly to share those with my mom for her birthday? This probably looks like an absolutely wild thing to throw onto a birthday card, or to draw at all for that matter, but this is sort of just how my family and I work. And we're thinking all of you kitty-loving friends of ours might relate to this doodle in one way or another.

Happy Caturday, friends!

Tip of the Day

Many of us have furbabies who enjoy a cozy bed, and who also enjoy making a bed out of their human's clothes. That's why today's pet parenting hack of a tip is to use your old clothes to make a pet bed for your kitty or pup. You can take on old shirt, for example, and stuff it with a pillow or other type of filling. You can sew it shut, or even just safely and securely tie it shut. Not only will the soft filling make this a cozy bed, but it will also smell like you, something that many furbabies enjoy. There are a great many options for creating beds in this manner, using shirts, pants, robes, and so forth. The options are endless, and you can even find ideas and techniques online for creating a variety of such pet beds.
