Suffragette Cat with a Fedora
#DoodlewashJanuary2025 prompt: Fedora. January 15 is National Hat Day. Did you know the fedora (named after the play Fédora) was worn by women suffragettes as a symbol of female empowerment in the late 1800s? It became popular as a men’s hat after Prince Edward of Britain began wearing one in 1920. This lady isn’t as angry looking as annoyed as some of my other cats this month but I figure if a cat decided to fight for female empowerment, she’d be serious about it, lol.

Queen Victoria's Pet Spaniel
Thank you in advance for any likes or comments! #DoodlewashJanuary2025 prompt: Pet. January 14 is National Dress Up Your Pet Day. Did you know one of the first known instances of dressing dogs up came from the 1830’s when Queen Victoria writing of dressing her dog in a scarlet jacket and blue trousers? I did this on a day that was really gloomy, and was a bit shocked when I looked at it in better light - poor puppy is far more green than the blonde I intended.

My Desk Is Just Fine the Way It IS
#DoodlewashJanuary2025 prompt: Desk. January 13th is Clean Off Your Desk Day. Did you know, according to WebMD, there are more than 10 million bacteria are on a typical office desk, which is 400 times more bacteria than found on the average toilet seat. This is because as the day goes on, you are probably touching many other things that many people are touching, and bringing the germs back to your desk.

Vechur Cow
#DoodlewashJanuary2025 prompt: Cow. Jan 11 is National Milk Day. Did you know the Vechur is the smallest breed of cow in the world, per Guiness, standing around 3 feet tall and weighing 250-300? Supposedly, its milk is healthier than that of other breeds, but the jury is still out on that one.

Swiss Cheese Plant
#DoodlewashJanuary2025 prompt: Swiss Cheese Plant. January 10 is National Houseplant Appreciation Day. Did you know that the name Monstera deliciosa (aka Swiss Cheese Plant) translates to Delicious Monstrosity, and it’s so-called because of its delicious fruit? You only want to eat said fruit when it is ripe though, or it will make you ill!
