Life got a bit hectic this weekend, which is part of why I haven't posted today until now. I haven't yet had a chance to scan the next batch of Halloween drawings for this season, so for this late post I'll go ahead and share one of my favorite Halloween doodles from a couple years ago. It's a bit of a busy scene, complete with jack-o'-lantern carving during a viewing of Freddy Kitty Krueger.
Happy Caturday, friends!

Tip of the Day
We're 19 days in, and our Halloween tips are still going. After all, we have 31 of them to get through. And, indeed, we have another Halloween-inspired tip for you today.
Yesterday, we mentioned the importance of keeping black cats, and of course all furbabies, indoors on Halloween to prevent them from becoming victims of tricks and pranks. Today's tip is similar, and it is to avoid going on a walk with your dog, or your kitty, during trick-or-treat hours. This is for a number of reasons, including the obvious one that foot traffic, and even potentially car traffic, will be increased during trick-or-treat hours. This is something that could pose a risk especially for skittish dogs or cats, as they might become frightened of the Halloween hustle and bustle. What's more, not only will more people be out and about on Halloween night, making extra traffic and noise, but many of them will be dressed in strange and potentially frightening costumes. These factors could lead a nervous dog or cat to panic, and to potentially get loose and lost. Of course, increased traffic could also lead to accidents and injuries, such as if a nervous or excited dog or cat gets loose and makes their way into the street. All in all, it is important to always take into consideration your furbaby's safety, which might very well mean house arrest during those trick-or-treat hours on Halloween night.
