l wondered that too when l played it back. lt was squeaking when l was taping, but l guess my ancient 5mp Kodak couldn't pick it up. l could hear the paw steps, the tree, DS, etc, but not the squeaking.
Close up of the ornaments for Abby, Spencer and Katie! I didn't have a tree up this year, but I will definitely put these on one next year, or even hang them from some garland.
A very fun dragon fly toy for the kits, holistic cat foot, card, tote with tea towels and oven mitts, and a TCS tote
Close up of a few of the cat toys.
Spencer is crazy mad over the mop toy with feather, and of course the Da Bird refills are always a huge hit!
Another wide shot. I absolutely love that Nivea Body Wash! It smells of oranges. I've been buying it for a few years now and it's my absolutely favourite!
Another angle
I managed to get the bag of springs back from Katie so I could take a picture of it! LOL
A close up of the Japanese toy with the operation instructions, clear as mud! LOL
And finally, the toe with tea towels and oven mitts!
Thank you so much Andrya! It was so fun opening them. Once I process the rest of the pictures, I'll post some of the kits playing. I finally figured out how to do continuous captures, so I actually have some action shots.
They were 2 little sisters I'd adopted from the shelter. They were ill but I didn't know that. They both had the runs hence the bottom washing. It turned out they had IFP.Ahhh...that sort of bath! I just like that they can bathe themselves without my help! And yet the "potty!"
Thanks!!
Great gifts everyone!!
And ... erm ... where are the TimTams????
I have to say I did
Oh my goodness, Nebula! I am so sorry to have put you through all of this! Normally, I watch the Secret Santa thread like a hawk. Secret Santa is, after all, the highlight of my year. This year, I've had a few complications and haven't been keeping up with it as I should. I do hope you enjoyed your gifts...I had a wonderful time picking them out for you and actually got to meet the author of the book. When I found out it was for a children's charity, I knew you would approve of the cause. Get well soon,
Loving going through all of the updates and seeing the pictures everyone has posted! Secret Santa is such a fun, happy time of the year I always enjoy and look forward to![emoji]10084[/emoji]️[emoji]10084[/emoji]️[emoji]10084[/emoji]️
We broke out the catnip bubbles our SS gave us last night! They were a huge hit with both our cats and dogs lol! I need to get pictures of that!
So glad to see it hanging! I found it back in October for you at a little home good store called, Kirklands! [emoji]128151[/emoji]

Haha poor Rico doesn't understand why he can't have that toy lol!So....I hung up my beautiful sun catcher hummingbird from starryeyedtiger:
But it wasn't five minutes before Rico discovered him. He started to bite Hummie's beak! So I quickly stuck the first thing I found between him and the bird, a foam rubber block:
Rico wasn't quite sure what to do about that-- I hope hummie survives! :lol3:

Long gone! LOL I totally enjoyed those!

I'm so glad you liked everything! Just have to point out that the bracelet is actually a hair tie as well. But, I use mine as both. It's perfect because when I have it on my wrist it looks like a bracelet instead of a plain, boring elastic, but when you put it in your hair it just adds a whole other level!
I had lots of fun shopping for you and so glad you and the felines were happy! I LOVE all the pictures of them testing out the new toys!

@ nurseangel, no problem!
This was a lot of fun this year, after the wreck and everything else that had happened it was hard to get in the Christmas spirit (wreck, uncle dying, grandpa dying and more) and this helped a bit. Christmas still wasn't the same, but we really enjoyed the gift- I am wearing the butterfly necklace and, yes I LOVED the fact that the book supported a Children's Charity. Children and cats, the best combination

I'd love to but it's too expensive for me to send from where I live.
Wow, you started shopping early. Fortunately, kitties aren't allowed in my office unless I'm in there, so I can keep an eye on hummie! I don't want teeth marks all over him. :-)Loving going through all of the updates and seeing the pictures everyone has posted!

Poor hummie lol
You can always request that you get someone in your own country
I did overseas one year and shipping was horribly expensive, but this year I requested a stateside Santee, and had no shipping problems.
In getting ready to go for the annual family get-together, I neglected to post that I did get the other package. It was a black T-shirt with The Ladies' Personal Gentleman on it. I wore it home from OKC yesterday and never explained it to anyone that saw it. I did get a sneer and an unprintable comment from a Mr. Macho type, though. I just ignored him and thought to myself, "I bet you are a person that beats your animals and family."
How on earth would that work?You can always request that you get someone in your own country
They hook you up with a person in your same country.
