In Comes April

Happy Tortie Tuesday, Missians!

Are you guys ready for an all new month with The Missy Show?  I certainly hope so!  Once again, I want to give a big thanks for all of you who checked out this year's edition of Monsters of March. M.O.M may be over for now, but don't worry, we'll still have our May Mythical Beasts coming up next month.  But let's not get ahead of ourselves--April first!

I was going to combine the April Pet and Animal holiday post with my upcoming April blog post schedule, but I've decided to split those into two separate posts.  Today's post will feature the holidays and on "Fursday" I'll return with a post covering what's coming up in April on Missy's Blog. 

So, once again, here are your pet and animal holidays in April, courtesy of holidays and observances.com:
