It's Thimble Thursday, and today this tabby girl is here to give you a PSA. She wants to warn you all that it's spooky season, and apparently that means 'tis the season for weird friends to show up.

And sometimes those freaky friends sneak up behind you and scare a scream out of you.

Since it is Brian's Thankful Thursday Blog Hop, Thimble wants to share her gratitude that at least she's adorable even when she's spooked.

Tip of the Day

Yesterday's Halloween tip was the obvious recommendation to keep candy away from your furbaby, since chocolate and other such goodies are indeed toxic to kitties and pups. Today, we're going a tad bit further and reminding you that even the inedible parts and pieces of candy can pose a risk to our furbabies. We're referring to candy wrappers, sucker sticks, and other candy-related bits and bobs. These remnants of a scrumptious piece of candy can smell and taste good to a pup or kitty, and might therefore end up in their mouth. If ingested, wrappers, sucker sticks, and the like could result in gastrointestinal distress or more serious bowel obstruction or perforation. So, needless to say, don't only keep candy out of your furbaby's reach, but also wrappers and other leftovers after the candy itself is gone. Put any trash left behind by candy in a secure trash can where your kitty or pup cannot get to it, in order to keep your furbaby happy and healthy.
