Hello furiends both human & fur leggers. Jerry Underfoot & Dot here to share a post from last year that will explain why we put a purple pumpkin out this time every year. As well we have shared other wagnificent links to Olivia’s pawsome post on this matter.

Enjoy, Dot & Jerry Underfoot 😻head boops😻
Ahem—gather ‘round, two-legged readers & four-leggers. Jerry Underfoot here, professional biscuit-maker, lap-warmer, & reigning champion of “Chase the Invisible Bug.” My hobbies include knocking over suspicious cups & appearing underfoot or insisting on wake up paws to the face. But today, I must put aside my whisker-twitching mischief to tell you about something much bigger than the mysterious red dot: my heroic canine Epilepsy Warrior & sister, Olivia.
Now, I nose you nose Olivia wasn’t your average tail-wagger. Sure, she sniffed out rogue treats like a truffle pig on a mission; she was a Pawfessional Stinkologist, but she’s also was a Mighty Epilepsy Warrior. Olivia faced down seizures with more courage than I muster when the vacuum makes its dastardly rounds. Instead of capes, Olivia’s symbol was not only a ‘purple ribbon’ but a “purple pumpkin.” You might spot these around the outside of our house (& no, I haven’t tried to eat them… recently). These purple pumpkins stand for epilepsy awareness—reminding everyone that heroes don’t always wear spandex. Sometimes, they have wagging tails & soulful beautiful eyes.
So that’s the scoop, friends. Stick around for more tales from underfoot—where the fur is plentiful, the snacks suspiciously scarce, & purple pumpkins mean hope for epilepsy warriors like my wagnificent sister Olivia.
Olivia wrote about Purple Pumpkins & The Purple Pumpkin Project. To learn more about how it all started claw ‘Why Is That Pumpkin Purple?
We also wanted to share some of the other post Olivia shared on this matter.
This post shares purple pumpkins that others have painted, it pawsome: ‘Purple Pumpkins‘.
While this post shows us wagnificent pics of Olivia, Lady Q & GG showing off their purple pumpkins: ‘It’s Purple Pumpkin Time Again‘.
Want to create your own paper mache purple pumpkin? Olivia shares a video on just how to do it in this post, ‘Purple Pumpkins For Howlloween‘. Please note Olivia is not running a silent auction this year. With that said the one she did have was pawsitively furbulous fun.
You still can donate to The Wally Foundation by going to their Facebook page & pawing the link to PayPal or the button below their banner, ‘Learn More’. No amount is too low. Every donation is pawsitively appreciated & 100% goes to a family challenged by the cost of anti seizure medication for their Mighty Canine Epilepsy Warrior.
Dot boxed my head to add:
