Thankful Thimble Thursday in the Sun

It's Thursday, so of course Thimble is here and ready for Brian's Thankful Thursday Blog Hop.

Yet again, this little tabby girl is beyond grateful for sunshine. 

After some nasty thunderstorms with three tornadoes (that luckily didn't touch down) in our town earlier this week, we're finally enjoying us some sun. And the kitties are ecstatic, of course Thimble included.

Wishing you all lots of sunshine as well!

Flashback Doodle of the Day

After our severe thunderstorms on Monday, we're now expecting snow tomorrow. Oh, and flowers are starting to bloom in our neighborhood. That said, here's a flashback doodle in honor of Mother Nature, who's just as confused as the rest of us.

Tip of the Day

Yesterday, as part of National Pet Poison Awareness Month, we mentioned the importance of having solid plans for taking your furbaby to a local veterinary clinic in the event that they are exposed to a poisonous substance. Along these same lines, also don't forget about the ASPCA Poison Control Center, which you can call 24/7. The phone number is 888-426-4435. This is an option in perhaps a bit less dire circumstances, when it is more likely that immediate medical attention is not needed. The ASPCA Poison Control Center can help you determine, for example, if the amount of chocolate your dog ate or if the pill of your human medication that your cat swallowed is something that might warrant a rush trip to the vet. Though, they can also potentially recommend treatments or at-home first aid tips in the case of poison exposure. There is the chance that you will be charged a consultation fee, but, should you need professional poison control advice immediately, that number might very well be a good one to call.
