    Debating on whether to enter Bailey - he's kind of gone off toys since Lucy robs them all.. Would people mind if the were just buying treats for their SS and not toys!? :confused:

    I have a horse and two bearded dragons .... Slightly different, tempted to put the beardies (they're counted as one as they live together and share everything) and the horse in ha but is it fair?

    Just sent mine in - I hope I'm not too late! I entered Jessie (dog) and Freddie (cat) since the other two were entered last year.

    I also decided not to enter any of the chickens this year since I don't think they fully appreciated the importance of the occasion. :D

    I got one addressed to Oliver and Tiffi delivered to work a couple of years back! :o

    I won't be entering any pets this year, there's a fairly good (almost certain) chance we'd be away for around posting time and opening time, but will enjoy watching all the fun.

    I'll miss ss, loved doing it the last couple of years, and have already caught myself looking at stuff for it!

    Get yourself in there! That's not an excuse at all - you'll just have to be super organised :D

    Wish I could, but Waiting on a family member to have some pretty major surgery, haven't got dates yet for their op, so can't arrange anything, got dogs cats and teenager as well as work to organise. (And three more kittens to rehome)

    I will be back next year though!

    I make my cats nocturnal at midnight just so they can open them up :P

    I was doing my zooplus order this morning and kept seeing things I wanted to put into my order then realised I could end up shopping for something that wasn't a cat or a dog so I better hold off :P

    I've got a lot going on this year so I won't be able to do it this time around:(. I might be out of line here but I was just wondering if maybe one year we could do a Secret Santa for some animal rescues, especially the ones that some forum users are involved with? It would be really nice to get some goodies to the rescue animals.:)

    That's a great idea in theory but I could see it being difficult enough to pull off, especially with not being able to name individual rescues on here. I'm sure there could be a way around it like if someone wanted to enter a rescue or individual animal instead of their own pet and bring the present to the rescue after they received it or something along those lines.. certainly would be worth considering anyway! Not for this year though as there's only 4 spots left :P

    I think that's a super idea!
    Let me stew on it for a while :)

    Ah just looked at Lucy's vid of her opening her presents last year!! She looks so small compared to now with her dumbo ears too big for her head and unfolded tail lol!:p We still have all the toys - the Santa is banned from day to day play after it drove my mum and Bailey mad lol!! :pac:

    Oh god the temptation to put in the cat we haven't got yet (but who is being fostered for us until we move house) is immense!!!!
