SillyMangoX

Got a package addressed to Master Cream today. He looks very smug about it. Thankfully our post woman is related to us so understands that most of the post i get is to do with cats

SillyMangoX

Just been sorting through my spreadsheet, there is only 4 packages left to be delivered! Never been as sorted this early :pac:

In case I have missed any PM's, could you please like this post if you have received your package? For multi-pet houses, please only like it if you have received ALL your packages!!

Ironically, I've got some temporary work as a courier dealing with the christmas rush, so I'm not at home now for the postman when he delivers.

Hasna the horse's package arrived yesterday! All three counted for!

Lady Haywire

Aw it's great reading all these! I didn't sign up this year as I went SS on Imgur instead so that was my money gone.
Panda is now the boss of the pen she's in so if her SS from last wants photos I can give them She's also huge now so 700kg of heifer!

I just caught Riggs on the kitchen table trying to open his package :pac: Somehow he knows it's for him and there is something very tempting in it...

I met one of the local posties out and about today, and asked if he had a parcel for me, his reply was "how did you know"? so I'm not sure how long they have had it lol. I'll go into the post office tomorrow and see what the story is.

I realised this morning that I'm waiting impatiently to see my secret santas open their pressies, but I haven't yet found time to buy a single present for human recipients or write a Christmas card...

January tasks: reassess priorities.

I went into the post office this morning, no, I was told, if there was a parcel there would have been a card left telling me. Then I met the other post man in a shop, and he told me he had a parcel for me, had had it for a few days, and been carrying it around as I was never in. lol So Max's secret santa is now safely in the house

Words cannot express how excited I am to see everyone's videos.

Peach got a treat ball to help her along with her diet (haven't used it yet but will give her dinner out of it tomorrow!) and a kickeroo which she drooled all over

Thank you so much to their secret santas! And also thank you so much to everyone who participated this year and was so co operative with everything along the way

Pics to follow- not very good ones as the dog would not hold still enough for long enough to get a picture! Presents must be vigorously shaken, you know.

She has been a bit under the weather for the past few days- she managed to get hold of uncooked rice and some wrapping paper and eat it. And then get diarrhoea everywhere and cover herself in it, and she had to have the dreaded b-a-t-h. So she has been moping with a bit of an upset stomach. Now she is carrying her new green ball around the house and looking a lot better and happier.

And, of course, repeatedly dropping it at my feet to trade for some of her new biscuits.

Thank you so much to her secret santa, you have made a little dog's day.

Present opening has been delayed here.... Husband has been called unexpectedly to work and dog and I are under strict instructions not to have all the opening fun without him!

We had the best morning ever! Thanks so much to our secret santas!!

Fergus was like a five year old child hyped up on sugar- as soon as i took one toy off him to remove the tags he was off and running with a different present to rip it open. Sass was very bemused by the whole thing but when we opened her box she trotted off with the biscuits. I need to get the recipe- she wont leave them alone! 😂

Both were so, so generous. I cant thank ye enough. I've a pair of delighted dogs here. Pics to follow. Merry Christmas!!

Well Milo is one very happy lurcher this afternoon!! His SS went above and beyond and spent a small fortune on him so I can't thank you enough! !

Also, I think I may have figured out who it is by the wax seal on the envelope as someone had posted about sealing their envelopes with a wax seal this year in another forum! I'm quite the detective (if I'm right!)!
Pictures to follow

Aw, Max just opened his. He's a very nervous boy, and lives on his own here, he allows Indy to share the bedroom with him and I at night, but thats why he was chosen to be a recipient. Due to his nervousness, he wasn't sure if he was allowed to open the wrapping paper, or look in the box, I have taken photos, but for some reason my photobucket account hasn't been working the last few days, so I'm not sure how to upload photos on to here now, flickr doesn't seem to work properly, so any help would be appreciated.

He got two cuddly, squeaky toys, and he has agreed to share one with Indy, but he is keeping all of the lovely dried fish treats all to himself. Again, I tried to take photos of him enjoying one, but he is so worried about things that he won't eat chews 'in public' he turns away and tries to hide, so not great pictures I'm afraid. I shall upload when I know how.

Thank you so much to Max's secret santa, he's a very happy boy tonight

With thanks to my technical adviser Sorry, my phone camera isn't great and no way could my rural internet cope with uploading a video.

Well all pressies are open & everything with fur, feathers and scales are very happy. Mind you it is difficult to type on your phone with a Parrotlet swinging upside down from it.

We have a very talented Boardsie among us who cheered us up after getting some bad news & made my kids laugh when they seen this.
