hot dogs and fiery felines

well, we are on our second 100-degree heat index day in a row and everyone is doing all they can to beat the heat. since our pets can't come to the movies with us, we have to do all we can to help keep them cool.

this kitty enjoys being wiped down with a damp towel - they say the texture of a moistened towel is similar to that of a cat's tongue, so some cats may even tolerate it! another option is to lay a wet towel on a tile floor and let kitty take a nap on it.

if you are feeling like you are missing something a little jungle-esque in your life you could always spring for a lion cut shave. hear them roar, indeed.

this dog is doing exactly what most of us wish we could be doing, only he's putting too much effort into it. the lazy river is the way to go!

most importantly, keep an eye out for signs of heat stroke, especially if your dog or cat is outside during the hottest parts of the day.

and if you're in the neighborhood, drop by and pick up a frozen yogurt for your dog! mmmmmm.....
