Pet Blogger Showcase 10/21/2017

Twice a month, Bear and I co-host a Pet Blogger Linky Party along with co-hosts PetFavesHeart Like A Dog, and Felines Opines. If you missed the last Pet Blogger Showcase, you can view it here: Pet Blogger Showcase 10/07/2017. To view all the past weeks of the Showcase that we co-hosted, click the link: Pet Blogger Showcase.

In a tough decision among the co-hosts, we've decided to discontinue the Showcase. This will be the last week to link up to the Showcase. Our next scheduled Showcase (November 4) will only feature our favorite link-ups from this weekend. Just a quick note ... it's been a pleasure and privilege to meet so many new wonderful friends - and read and share your posts each week. Thank you to our readers and those who linked up - you've made this Showcase a wonderful experience for all of us!

In keeping with the tradition of this particular linky party, my favorite link ups from the last Showcase follow. A note on the last Showcase ... Bear and I were ecstatic at how many link ups we had last time!!! Especially with the great showing of felines! THANK YOU to everyone/everycat/everydog who linked up ... the Showcase is made better by each and every friend who joins: you ARE the Showcase!

*** Like Cats and Dogs - Travels with Barley ***

When a pet parent adopts a new furbaby, the hope is that the newbie will fit in and be friends with the incumbent pets. This post shares a beautiful story of the relationship between Rye (newbie dog) and Soth (the incumbent cat)! What better feeling than knowing you've given your furbaby a life-long friend? 

*** 10 Essential Tips For Teething – A Survival Guide For New Puppy Owners - Big Dog Mom ***

This is an amazing article with great advice on how to survive your puppy's teething. I’ve never had a puppy - but Bear Cat is a biter; to making my life less painful, I've tried many different things. My trial and error approach over the years yielded many of the same conclusions - so they work!


Our long time readers know Bear's obsessed with post-it notes; he's come up with countless ways to use them to his advantage. We love this new feature from Chirpy Cats ... what sticky notes would your favorite feline leave for his or her fur-siblings or you on his or her scratching posts and cat trees? 

*** Animal Shelter Volunteer Life ***

Wait! Wait! One more!!! We're counting this as a chosen ORGANIZATION ... though the blog itself is amazing and WELL WORTH your visit. For as long as I cohost, I will praise and raise awareness for PAWS, an incredible rescue in Norwalk, Connecticut that I've come to admire and wholeheartedly support. We LOVE Animal Shelter Volunteer Life because of their upbeat attitude and because they do a phenomenal job of sharing this particular rescue - and the cats available for adoption there. PAWS offers a lot of great programs including a "pension plan" for senior pets up for adoption. We encourage our readers to visit these two blogs, check out the amazing animals up for adoption on PAWS' website, and support rescue efforts at PAWS and locally.

About the Pet Blogger Showcase

Twice a month, On the 1st and 3rd Saturday of the month, you have the chance to link up one of your blog posts to the linky party link-up. Then visit 3 other blogs that joined the party and leave a meaningful comment. Feel free to share with your followers on Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter, etc. Then each week the hosts will feature their favorite 3 posts from the previous Linky Party on the new party post.

Pet Blogger Showcase Rules

1.    Share a pet specific post, past or present, from your blog in the linky below. Family friendly posts only. (We love reading about other topics and niches, but posts that are not pet related will be deleted this includes any posts that don’t mention pets even if they are on a pet blog or if the post could pertain to pets.)
2.    Spread the Love! Leave a quality comment(more than just a few words) on at least 3 other posts from the linky party. Tell them why you love their post, encourage them, share on social media.
3.    Check back for the next linky party to see if you are featured on one of the hosts’ blogs.

*Note: By adding your post to the linky party you are giving the hosts permission to use an image from your post if your post will be a featured post on their blog to help encourage people to click through to your post. The image may be used individually or as a collage.

ALSO ... please link to a specific post from your blog instead of to your blog's homepage. Since each co-host chooses three posts from the last Party to feature each week - you increase your chances of being chosen by giving us a specific post and not the more general homepage.

That’s it! No need to RSVP. No need to bring a covered dish. No need to add the linky to your post. No need to include a button. Just come join the party and PAWTY ON

  9. This showcase, we (mostly) chose the same. Honestly, is there anything sweeter than a cat and dog that love each other? I could also see my guys doing the sticky note thing, but hopefully not to the degree that Bear does it. :-) It's been lovely having you for a co-host, who knows? Maybe at some point we can revise it. :-)

    1. I thought the same thing about reviving it at some point! I'd be more than happy to send your pups a couple pads of post-its ;)

  10. I love every single post from Chirpy Cat - and this one was another great one from them!

  11. Bear, I love when you use post-it notes. I think there should be post-its made with your face printed on them! That would be purr-fect! Chirpy Cats always has some fun, informative posts & the catio the Chirpies get to sit out in is AMAZING!
