October 2018 Pet and Animal Holidays

Happy Monday, my little monsters! 

Oops!  I meant, Missians!

I must already be in a spooktacular kind of mood.  I wonder why?  Could it be because today is the first day of my favorite month of the year?  Of course!

So, Happy Monday and Happy October 1st!  For anyone new to The Missy Show, what that means around these parts, is that it's now time for our annual Pet Spooktacular celebration.  Every year we do paranormal themed Missy Show episodes, every Saturday in the month of October, (we're also doing some supernatural themed blog posts too).  

Our first supernatural themed blog post will be Friday, entitled, "Animals in Superstition" and our first Pet Spooktacular episode will be this Saturday, October 6th at 8 pm Central, called,  "The Transylvania Connection: Werewolves, Vlad, and Other Scary Legends".

Okay, but now off to the topic at hand.  In today's post, we're keeping you abreast of all the upcoming October Pet and Animal Holidays.  So without further delay, here are your October Pet Days to know.
