Wordless Wednesday

 

The Adventures of Periwinkle and Stinky

 

Periwinkle couldn't wait to see the Teleportation Tunnel start to shake, since that meant Stinky was about to arrive.  As she waited, she groomed her furs and thought about the plan for the day.  She didn't have to wait long since the Tunnel shook and with a WOOSH, Stinky popped out right into her waiting paws.  The two giggled, whisker-kissed, and paw-patted for a while.  

"So what are we doing today?" asked Stinky.  Periwinkle said it was a two-part Adventure.  One was a PSA of something they did previously, and another was helping her Mom.  Periwinkle continued, " Stinky, did you remember that March is National Pet Poison Prevention Month?"  He laughed and said, "Does that mean I’m not supposed to lick random things off the floor?"  Rolling her eyes, she responded, "Which is exactly why humans need reminders this month. Lots of things that smell good—or look interesting—can actually make pets very sick. This month is all about helping pet parents learn what household items can be dangerous for pets and what to do in an emergency. Organizations like the ASPCA and the Pet Poison Helpline spend the month sharing tips to keep pets safe. So basically… humans learn how to stop us from doing questionable things.

Here are some things pets should never EAT or play with:

• Chocolate
• Grapes and raisins ​
• Onions and garlic ​
• Macadamia nuts
• Xylitol (in gum, candy, some peanut butter) ​
• Alcohol
• Raw bread dough ​
• Artificial sweeteners
• Large amounts of fatty table scraps ​

Tip: Make sure dropped food is safe for pets before letting them eat it. ​

Many houseplants and outdoor plants can be dangerous, too. That’s why humans should check if plants are pet-safe first.

Lilies (very dangerous for cats)

Aloe plants

Sago palms

Tulips and daffodils

Pets can also get sick from

Cleaning supplies
Antifreeze
Essential oils
Certain medications

Stinky was impurressed by all the good information Periwinkle had. He added, "Stay curious but stay safe and remember not everything is a snack!"  Periwinkle smiled and hugged him. "You're so smart!" she said.  He blushed and hugged her back.  He always felt good when she complimented him.

Periwinkle said, "Now for our second part of the Adventure.  We're helping Mom put up the St Patrick's decorations!  Stinky hopped up and down and clapped his paws since he always enjoyed decorating with Periwinkle.  Of course, he chose to do the top of the entertainment center so he could climb up without upsetting Periwinkle...

Together they did the fireplace...

And the teddy bear...

Periwinkle put out the Leprechaun...

and put some garland around the Circle of Cats...

Stinky wanted to see how the Mango tree was doing after the freeze so they went outside for a bit.  He gasped when he saw it since it looked like all the leaves were dead.  Periwinkle said, "Mom said we have to wait to see if it comes back.  A lot of the plants have started coming back but others are not.  They say we have to wait a few more weeks."  Stinky nodded but looked sad. 

Periwinkle said, "Let's go inside for a snack!" She knew snacks would cheer him up.  Stinky smiled and, paw in paw, they went into the house where her Mom had set out Temptations and Churus for them.

After their snack, they took a quick nap, spent time whisker-kissing and paw-patting before Stinky had to go home.  Periwinkle's Mom thanked them for their decorating help, and Stinky thanked her for their snack.  With one last whisker-kiss, he jumped into the Teleportation Tunnel and, with a WOOSH, headed home.

Periwinkle cleaned up from their snack and went back to where they napped to have another snooze and dream of Stinky.

Periwinkle and Stinky tried making a Sora video.  We have it embedded in two different ways.  We hope you like the video.  Please let us know which one is best.  We know Stinky has a tail, and Periwinkle is calling him Pete, but this was one of our first tries!

We did a second one that got Periwinkle's name right. Which do you like best?

Monday Sparks

 Even though McGuffy's reader is taking a break, we are continuing our Monday Sparks posts!  From the original Sparks posts:

 

 

Welcome to Sparks. Many years ago, it was my intent to post an inspirational thought each Monday. It would be my weekly meditation, and perhaps feed other people's spirit as well. Life got busy, and this fell by the wayside. Now, I feel a strong need to bring this feature back. 
The negative energy in the world has become thick and oppressive. Social media has become a part of this dark, negative storm. There is an obvious universal need for more positive energy and peace. And, we can all be part of this affirmative change. 
I believe we are meant to be lights in this world. If we allow our light to shine, we can see where we are going. It is then that we can begin to truly see each other clearly. Together, we can light up the entire world!
I hope you will join us. Please link up a positive quote, thought, poem, or verse. The badge and code can be found in my sidebar. Add the badge to your post to invite others. The more, the merrier. I welcome your thoughts. Peace.
