Mancat Monday: The Paw Pillow

It's Mancat Monday, so of course handsome Evan is here to grace you with his adorableness.


Evan often uses his paws as pillows of a sort, like in that photo there. I always try to get photos of him when he does it, because it's just so cute.

Happy Monday, friends!

Flashback Doodle of the Day

The photo above reminded me of this doodle I scribbled up last year, so I figured I'd share it again today.

Tip of the Day

Is your kitty a chewer? Do they put anything and everything in their mouth? While we're sure you all know to keep potentially dangerous plants out of your home, do you have safe or fake plants on which your kitty chews? If your cat goes outdoors, do they tend to eat grass on the lawn? If the answers to any of these are yes, and if medical issues have been ruled out for any abnormal behaviors, do perhaps consider keeping some cat grass growing in your home. Even if any of the above statements aren't true of your cat, you can of course still offer cat grass. Cat grass is a safe plant on which many cats enjoy chewing, and which also serves as a source of fiber than can help keep things moving sufficiently through the GI tract. For example, cat grass might be able to help prevent issues with hairballs.

You can purchase cat grass that has already been grown and is ready for your kitty's chompers, or you can grow your own. It is relatively simple to grow, and is also typically cheap. So, do consider looking into keeping cat grass in your home, both for your kitty's entertainment as well as for their health. Of course, do monitor your kitty, especially when first offering cat grass. If they gorge on the grass and/or vomit after eating it, then only offer it to them on occasion, or not at all.

Adorable shot of Evan. I like the drawing too. Rusty is my chewer. He likes any kind of strings.
