Thankful Thimble Thursday: Boo Brew

It's Thursday, not to mention two days before Halloween, so Thimble is of course here with some festive fun for Angel Brian's Thankful Thursday Blog Hop.

Like Evan and Tonks earlier this week, Thimble is grateful to be enjoying a spooky drink brought to her by a ghostly friend.

Thimble says the Boo Brew both smells and tastes fantastically like catnip, and she welcomes you all to take a taste!

Spooky Flashback Doodle of the Day

I've drawn my sister's kitties Toby and Winky in Halloween costumes not once, but twice now. Two years ago I drew them as the clown characters from the Terrifier movie series. Even as a horror movie aficionado, I would not recommend anyone watch these movies. They're gory as sin and pretty darn horrendous.

Last year I made a second attempt at Toby and Winky's Halloween doodle, this time in Harry Potter-inspired costumes that were far more to my sister's taste.

Tip of the Day

Do you want to give your furbaby an extra fun treat for Halloween? We're thinking most of you already know that pet stores typically offer festive toy options around the holidays, including Halloween. Nevertheless, we're reminding you to consider looking for the pet store's festive holiday section, or for festive options in the general toy aisle. If necessary and feasible, you can even use such festive new toys to help distract a furbaby who gets anxious or excited by the sounds and overall hustle and bustle of Halloween night festivities, such as trick-or-treaters visiting the house. Of course, if you are handing out candy, festive new toys should be given in a safe area of the home away from the door. And, yet another caveat is to always check new toys for any potentially dangerous parts and pieces. You know your kitty or pup best, so when picking out new festive toys for them, always keep in mind their tendencies to chew on or eat certain toys. It's fun to be festive, but it's also very important to be safe.
