Hi everyone! I have another tip for you, this one is good for when you have a lot of pennies. It is also a great use for a sock that lost its mate.
You just fill the sock with pennies, tie the end and put it in the freezer. It makes a great ice pack for when you get injured.
Today is already I day on the A-Z Blogging Challenge.Mom made an icicle, she makes lots of these to put on the bottom branches of the Christmas tree. We love to steal them at night. I think she should spray them with catnip spray.
For some reason, my crazy human thought that you were going to say that penny-filled socks were good to have in case you needed to hit an intruder over the head! She is a weirdo. Spraying those icicles with catnip sounds like a good idea.
I like this idea, too! But the ice pack is really clever. Your pictures are adorable, as always. Be well!
That is actually a great idea 🙂 I may use that one.
Claire had the same thought as Summer’s human, MOL ! Purrs
That is funny 🙂
Hahahahaha! Our mum thought the same thing as Summer’s purrson 😉
MOL! What does that say about her….
The ice pac idea is much better!
The icicle idea is neat and that one looks good and would be better with catnip.
The tree may not survive though if there are lots of catnip icicles.

That is a good idea too 🙂
Those icicles make great TOYS! I bet you have a stash of those somewhere in the house that you’ve “borrowed” from the Christmas tree right Emmy??
Hugs, Teddy
MOL! I still have the elf ornament 🙂 XO
Ellen,
Cool idea for lost sock mates. 🙂 The icicle is a cute idea for a cat toy. Filling or spraying cat nip on them is one way to wake up the house at night, so it’s probably not the best idea to do that. 🙂

Thank you. My cats are not active at night 🙂
Those icicles sure look like fun toys. Sure looks like Emmy is enjoying them. You all have a wonderful day.
Thank you We hope you had a great day too.
You have a good idea for a cold penny-filled sock–and so does Summer’s human! That icicle looks like a great cat toy. 🙂
Thank you. Yes, Summers human does have a good idea.
Cool pennny trick, literally! That’s too cute Emmy!
Thank you 🙂
I will give that sock/pennies tip a try! I’ve always used socks with holes are dust rags – I put them over my hand, sprayed furniture polish on them, then dusted away.
That is a great idea too 🙂
Great idea and thank you for sharing.
Thank you 🙂
We like your tip, Penny, but we too thought the same as Summer! Anyway, it seems too bad you only get the icicles during the Catmas season. Obviously you need an all year long tree!
Thank you. Summer has a good idea too 🙂
This is a great idea, Penny! I have lots of pennies, and even more rogue socks, so I should definitely give this a try. And that icicle is so perfect for the winter we’re having this spring. I also love the idea of hanging those from the Christmas tree. Oh, and we definitely think they need to be sprayed with catnip. Purrs!
Thank you. I hope you try it. XO
Well, that icicle does indeed look like a cat toy, so you can’t blame a cat for taking it. 🙂
I put all crocheted stuff on the bottom of the tree for them to take 🙂
I have to find myself an old sock now, Phenny, that was a great tip! That icicle looks like a great surpurrize under the Christmas tree, I think a nipcicle is a purrfect idea too, Emmy 😀 Pawkisses for a wonderful day 🙂 <3
I hope you can find one 🙂 XO
OMCs an ice pack now that is very very clever!!
Hugs madi your bfff
Thank you. XO
What a great idea! I never would have thought of that. Very clever.
Thank you 🙂

Thank you 🙂
I agree she ought to spray them with catnip. You tell her to from now on.
Have a purrfect day. My best to your mom. ♥
Thank you. Mom sends her best too 🙂
The Hubby has a huge jar full of pennies; think I’ll suggest the penny-sock to him! Beats using frozen peas or mixed vegetables.
I am sure he will let you have some for this purpose.

Thank you 🙂
Penny that is such a great suggestion for using up the socks without their mates, and an ice pack is always useful. My other suggestion would be making sock monkeys with them.
Hope you have a lovely day.

Thank you. That is a good idea 🙂
What a good idea! We like the icicle too!

Thank you. XO
That’s a great idea! I have SO many pennies that I need to do something with.
Thank you 🙂
The icicle is a great idea, and i like the tip! Metal coins would hold the cold longer.
Thank you 🙂
Great tip! My mommy is super clumsy, so she uses a lot of icepacks.
Our mom is too 🙂
As long as you’re not gonna hit any cats with the sock of pennies. Heh.
She would pee on it instead 🙂
What an interesting tip, Penny.
Thank you 🙂
The penny ice pack is a great idea and I’m sure I’ll use it on my knees!
Thank you. I hope it helps.
The ice pack is a good idea and as for icicles, they are just too much fun to leave on the tree
Thank you. Yes, they like playing with the icicles.
Um…I thought you were going to tell us how to use those pennies in the sock for a door stop! (Or a paperweight…)
That is a great idea, to make an icicle. It goes with your ice pack idea too, Penny.
Pipo has put plenty of his fur onto that nice mat we got in the mail yesterday. Thanks and purrs!! Cute socks!! And those nip toys are pawsome, too;)
Penny was going to tell people about making a doorstop in another post. 🙂
I like the socks too and didn’t want to toss it even though there was a big hole so I am glad we have a use for it 🙂
Penny, that is a great tip. CH could have done that when he hurt his knee back in January. Knee is all better now but today he plays pickleball so I have my fingers crossed for the knee and anything else that he messes up… 😀 Nip on the I for icicles for sure!
Glad he is feeling better now. XO
We never would have thought of that – what a great idea!
Thank you 🙂
MOL Penny that’s a great tip. It’d also make a great weapon ifin somepawdy was to break into your house. MOL Big hugs
Luv ya’

Good idea 🙂 MOL! XO
That’s a great tip, Penny, as always!
Thank you 🙂
