*Pet Talk GIFT SWAP 2004*

[Karen]

The usual rules have a spending limit, ($15) and the questionnaire helps with knowing what to get pets/people! It's not about money, really, it's about the fun we have picking out stuff for others, or even making stuff if you are so inclined!

Count me in, of course! I still have the little foam bunnies that decorated my last package here on my keyboard!

That exactly right Karen! I really enjoyed picking out stuff for Naomi in my first swap and Logan in the second. I feel really bad that some people didn't receive packages from the last swap. I first said I was not going to participate in any more but I love buying things for others and I love seeing the pictures of them with the things I sent.

Poor Rosemary really had to do a lot of shopping for my gang the last time around and she did GREAT!!!!! But, I would like to say that when you have as many different kinds of pets as I do, and as many, I don't think it is fair for the person who draws my name to have to shop for everyone. My idea would be that if I am matched with a "cat" person (like Rosemary, who has two cats), then I would be find just receiving cat gifts. The same would go for a dog person or bird person.

Count me in, Amy, whenever you plan to do it.

May I be a party pooper? I want to address the THREE people that didn't recieve gifts last time. This really steams me up. We are moving forward without addressing the non-recievers. I feel this is a slap in the face, really. (not to me, to them).

I understand that but you must see it from my perspective. I'm a jobless teen who saves every little penny for these things. Even just one item per pet (for someone with a few pets) could cost alot around here. I don't know about over there but where I am, things aren't very cheap and I'm not the most creative person in the world. I try to stick to the limit but then the pets would only get crummy things and I'd just feel horrible. I could always just buy general pets things for the whole group rather than per pet like logan said I guess.

I loved shopping for your gang Logan. I just hope the fur and feather kids liked what I sent. I hope you liked what I sent for you as well.

[Logan]

You know I did, Rosemary!!!

I am definitely in!!
I recieved wonderful gifts from Julie last time!! They are still playing with them!!! (they did destroy 1 thing, I feel sorta bad--it was orange and blue)

I had so much fun shopping for Angus, Huney, and Roxy--and it was well worth it when I saw their pictures with the noisy toys I picked out for them
