Thankful Thimble Thursday: Co-starring Evan

We've reached Thursday, which of course means it's time for Angel Brian's Thankful Thursday Blog Hop.


As always, Thimble is here to share her gratitude. Today she's thankful for catnip and toys. What's more, she's grateful that her brother Evan finally managed to get some of his constipated stool out. Is that what you expected Thimble to say today?


If you look just above Thimble, or to her left, you'll see some catnip strewn about the floor. This tabby girl loves some good ol' kitty drugs.

As for orange boy Evan, we mentioned on Monday how he's really been struggling with his megacolon and resulting constipation. After giving him all of his related meds at the absolute highest doses and frequencies for many days in a row, he finally got quite a bit of stool out last night and this morning. It's admittedly been a bit of a mess, but as long it's coming out, we can sort it out from there. He's defecated enough now that I'm comfortable not moving forward with an enema at this time, but I'm sure he'll need more of those in the future, poor boy.

Happy Thursday, friends!

Tip of the Day

Do you have furbaby hair on your sofa? What about in your car? Surely not on your clothes? Our pet parenting life hack for today is to keep some rubber gloves on hand. Why? Because, aside from the more commonly used lint roller or piece of tape, or of course a vacuum cleaner, rubber gloves can be a reusable tool for removing furbaby hair from surfaces such as sofas and car interiors. You just put on a rubber glove and run it over the hairy sofa or other surface. The rubber glove will help lift the hair from the surface, and the hair will instead stick to the glove. When you're done using the glove to remove furbaby hair from your furniture, one easy way to get said hair off of the glove is by submerging the glove in water. The hair will float off of the glove, and then you can dip the hair out of the water and toss it. So, if you're looking for a quick, easy, reusable tool for removing your furbaby's hair from your furniture, consider giving the rubber glove trick a try.

It's great to hear Evan is doing better.

'Nip and toys, two favorite things here, too.
