Friendly Fill-Ins

Hello, friends! We're ready for the Friendly Fill-Ins challenge, and we'd love for you to join us. My co-host Ellen of 15andmeowing came up with the first two fill-in statements, and I came up with the second two.


1. I've got a yen for _________.

2. I would gladly trade _________ for _________.

3. It seems like only yesterday that _________.

4. If you offered me _________, I would _________.

My answers are below in bold.

1. I've got a yen for chocolate.

(Always.)

2. I would gladly trade these hot and humid summer days for cool and crisp autumn days.

(I don't want to wish any time away. But, if we could just bypass this summer weather, I'd be totally fine with that.)

3. It seems like only yesterday that my cats were kittens.

(Every spring and summer I get nostalgic about my kitties' kittenhoods. After all, they all have birthdays in April and May. I also met and brought all of them home in May, except Eddy, whom I adopted in July. So many kitten memories.)

4. If you offered me a large sum of money for any of my furbabies, I would tell you to take a hike.

(My kitties and pup aren't going anywhere. I was shocked when I once saw a poll asking people if they would hand their pets over for something like a million dollars, and well over half the results said yes. I could never and would never.)

Now it's your turn!

Tip of the Day

 

Very recently, we shared a series of tips all about pet safety in the season of spring. We were going to wait a while before we got into the details of summer safety, but given the summer-like days we've been having, we thought we'd go ahead and offer some of these important tips now.

In many areas, summer can mean extreme heat. For this reason, it is important to know the signs of heat exhaustion or heat stroke in your cat or dog. Signs of overheating in our furbabies can include excessive panting, difficulty breathing, increased heart rate and respiration rate, excessive drooling, weakness, or even vomiting and diarrhea. If your furbaby begins to show any of these signs, especially if they have been in the heat, do not hesitate to seek veterinary assistance. Tomorrow, we'll start diving a little deeper into how to keep your kitties and pups safe from overheating and other summer concerns.
