Mancat Monday with Evan's One True Love

Today, Evan would like you all to meet his one true love. Her name is Food Bowl.

Isn't she stunning?

Evan admitted that his beloved was looking a little scant in those photos, but don't worry, because I fixed that right away.

Happy Monday, friends!

Flashback Doodle of the Day

We still have flowers blooming while enjoying some gorgeous autumnal weather. Not to mention Halloween is just around the corner. Or something like that. All that to say, I'm in the mood for a doodle like this today, so here you go.

Tip of the Day

Today's autumn pet safety tip is all about those windows. After all, as the temperatures cool down this autumn, we might find ourselves craving some fresh air. Before opening any windows, though, be sure to inspect screens and take any and all precautions to ensure that no furbabies escape from any open windows. If you have an escape artist, perhaps block their direct access to windows, such as by putting something in front of the window that will prevent them from getting right next to the screen. Also never leave furbabies unattended with an open window, but instead monitor them closely when windows are open. Perhaps this all sounds like extreme measures, but a lost furbaby is a devastating thing, and it is always better to be safe than sorry.

That's not all we have on those windows, though. Also keep in mind the health of your furbabies as well as yourself when windows are open. Does your furbaby or yourself have asthma? What about allergies? If your kitty or pup has any such respiratory issues, open windows might not be an ideal thing. Allergens, dust, dirt, and all sorts of debris can enter through the window screen with the aid of the wind. This debris can lead to asthma attacks, itching, scratching, and other potential side effects in furbabies who do have asthma, allergies, or other similar medical issues. So, though open windows can be very enticing when the weather is cool and crisp, never forget to take into consideration all potential side effects.
