Thankful Thimble Thursday Co-Starring Eeyore

It's Thursday, which means Thimble is of course here for Angel Brian's Thankful Thursday Blog Hop.

Today, Thimble is grateful for festive friends. You know, like Eeyore.

That there Eeyore is wearing a festive little headband that's actually meant to be worn by cats. Not a single one of my cats is interested in wearing it, so Eeyore inherited it.

Thimble knows that she's way cuter than Eeyore, but she's still happy to have a festive little friend.

Tip of the Day

This time of year, we often enjoy having our homes smell festive. We've mentioned before how using candles to scent your home can pose obvious risks to our furbabies, and today we're here to discuss how using potpourri or essential oils to fragrance your home can also be dangerous to your furbaby. If you use liquid potpourri or essential oils to make your home smell like Christmas, or if you use them year round, be extremely cautious using them around your furbaby. Both ingestion and skin contact with some of these scented items can be extremely dangerous and toxic to your kitty or pup, causing anything from skin irritation to symptoms such as vomiting, difficulty breathing, and weakness. Just some of the essential oils and other similar products that can cause illness are those derived from cinnamon, pine, peppermint, and citrus. Therefore, if your holiday season includes using oils or potpourri to make your home smell festive, be extremely careful to keep all such products safely out of your furbaby's reach.
