leopardusweidii@yahoo.co.uk - 01 Dec 2007 19:01 GMT Folks,
It is with abject appologies that I need to change myself from being "Send and Recieve" to "recieve only" this year. Because of the owners having unexpected vet bills, I am not able to meet the financial cost of the cards and the postage.
I'm really sorry and am hoping I'll be in a better position next year.

Enfilade - 09 Dec 2007 22:18 GMT Hello everyone,
Since I don't have funds to send out a whole list of cards (out of Canada is so expensive, and there's so few of us in Canada!) but I do have a few dollars to spare, I'm adding a bunch of "Travelling Books" to the list, so if you'd like one, please post in my thread.

Steve Touchstone - 02 Dec 2007 04:33 GMT Unfortunately, I've been there and done that. Seems like the furry ones can pick the worse times to develop problems requiring a TED visit. Sending purrs that the new year will see your finances rebound.

I've had years where not only didn't I send, but I forgot to let the group know in advance. This year I bought the cards, but I couldn't' t find any with cats on them. This is the first time in ages that I bought season's greetings without owners on them. It don't feel right, but, thanks to Sam, I could at least buy cards this year.

I may have to send cards without cats on as well this year. I ordered mine weeks ago, the carrier admitted loosing the first ones and another lot should have been sent, they haven't arrived and if they don't arrive in the next few days I'll have to send ordinary cards.

My cards will have cats on them, but they are "Holly and Duffy cards" -- which means they are homemade (and look it), with pictures of Holly and Duffy. Definitely not professional and it actually costs more to make them than to buy some, but I enjoy doing it. And I hope all of you enjoy looking at pics of my furry twosome.

Mine are from the local shelter, so the money went to a good cause. I'm very pleased with this year's card - I hope you all enjoy it as much as I did when i first saw it. Yes, there is a cat. :)

I know what you mean about the cost, though I spent $180 for printer ink (3 full cartridges for each color and 5 for black). [My cards are much more elaborate this year than in the past - I can't wait for you guys to get them and tell me what you think]! And then the card paper and envelopes were $15 per 20 and I made 120 cards this year (my family and other RL friends get sent one - they won't let me stop, it's become my "thing"). So, almost $300 when I could have gotten 120 cards at the dollar store for about $10! ;>
BTW, when you get the cards as see the line "'Meow at the Moon' tour", remember that Ozzy was named for Ozzy Osborne (he had an album/tour called "Bark at the Moon").
