Thankful Thimble Thursday in the Sun

Hello, friends! It's Thursday, which means Thimble is happily here for Angel Brian's Thankful Thursday Blog Hop.

After days and days of rain, today Thimble is grateful for the return of sunshine.

Thimble is also thankful for all of the prayers you friends of ours sent for her grandma and grandpa's kitties Flitwick and Trapper! Both boys are still slowly but surely improving. Flitwick has cystitis, which is nothing new for him. He's in a flare, but it's indeed slowly improving. Diabetic Trapper suddenly stopped eating and not acting like himself, and his vet believes he has a mild case of pancreatitis. With various medications, he is also slowly improving. Thank you all again for the purrs and prayers for Flitwick and Trapper!

Tip of the Day

Today's pet parenting hack tip is a simple yet important one. Especially if your furbaby is a known chewer, do consider getting covers for power cords and other cables. I'm sure you all know the dangers that chewing on a cord can pose to our furbabies. So, to prevent this, cover up those cords and cables. There are a variety of cord and cable covers available on the market. There are covers that encase cords so that they are safe yet still able to be easily moved, and there are ones that essentially pin cords safely and securely to the floor. Of course, those are just two examples as to how you can make cords and cables safe around your furbabies. Perhaps do a bit of research, and, depending on your home and technological setup, determine what kind of cord and cable covers would best work for both you and your furbaby. As we always say, it's better to be safe than sorry.
