Thankful Thimble Thursday

It's Thursday, and you better believe tabby girl Thimble is ready for Brian's Thankful Thursday Blog Hop.


Today, Thimble grateful for human laps, and of course naps.


Though, admittedly, Thimble might feel a tad bit disgruntled when she's woken from said naps.


Don't let that furrowed brow fool you. Thimble is one of the most harmless cats you'll ever meet. She might look cranky sometimes, but a simple belly rub will boost her mood immediately.

Tip of the Day

Do you have kitties or pups who require separate feedings? This can occur if certain furbabies are on different diets, or if they require different amounts of food, such as if one is on a weight loss diet. While it is not always easy to do separate feedings, it is still often doable with at least a little work. For example, some cats who are more agile can be fed on an elevated surface, such as a counter or shelf, where other cats or even dogs cannot reach. In other cases, such as if you have a small cat or dog and a larger cat or dog, you can fabricate a box or other area with a small opening where the smaller furbaby can enter and eat without interference from the other, larger furbaby. Then there are times when feeding in separate rooms might need to be attempted. This version often works best if feedings are scheduled, and during those times the furbabies are placed in different rooms while each of them eats their diet as needed. There are also special bowls on the market to assist with separate feedings, such as bowls with shields that will open only when activated by a specific microchip. Though not always easy, there are methods that can be attempted for feeding furbabies on different diets, so don't lose hope if this is something your furbabies require.
