Mancat Monday: A Sunny Snooze

Today, on this Mancat Monday, Evan is happy to have both a cozy nap and warm sunshine all wrapped into one.

This past week Mother Nature has been throwing all sorts of confusion our way. Last Monday we had thunderstorms complete with what were luckily non-damaging tornadoes. Then on Friday we had an excessively windy snowstorm that knocked out our power for a good chunk of the weekend. Now, today, we're having us a sunny, 65°F day.

What's the weather like in your corner of the world? Evan hopes you're getting to enjoy some sunshine like he is!

Tip of the Day

Spring is just around the corner (hopefully), and that means blooms and blossoms will start to make appearances. As beautiful as it is, though, don't forget that this season can also come with dangers. That's why today's tip for National Pet Poison Awareness Month is to keep in mind that some of the plants blooming this time of year can indeed be poisonous to your pups and kitties. These include, but are not limited to, daffodils, tulips, hyacinths, crocus, azaleas, and lilies. Of course, there are plants that bloom during other parts of the year that are also toxic, so be aware of this year-round.

Try to keep your furbaby from chomping on any questionable plants, keeping an especially close eye when out on walks or in unfamiliar areas. In your own yard, block off your furbaby's access to areas that contain plants, in order to avoid the ingestion of any potentially toxic ones. If you think your furbaby might have snacked on a dangerous plant or begins displaying signs such as vomiting, diarrhea, restlessness, or lethargy, seek veterinary assistance immediately. The beauties of spring can indeed bring their fair share of dangers, so always be aware of your furbaby's safety around the plants that are blooming.
