Cards? grin going a bit far, but when the DC were at home we always had to have a present for the pets.Under the tree!

I don't buy cards for the dogs. They aren't ignored at Christmas though. They usually get a new bed and a package to rip open that has something tasty in it. Ridiculous I know but hey ho they are family members. (the are so definitely not Fur Babies, they are dogs)

Clever dog eh, Bluegal? grin

Hahaha.....personally NO Danni. I love all my animals but never buy presents at Christmas or cards from them etc. I do buy 'treats' throughout the year though. I've a basketful of toys for the dog and the GC get confused as to which are theirs as he seems to have more lol.

BUT when he was a young pup he would just attack any toy left around but now he knows which are his and leaves the GC's toys alone. SUCCESS smile

When my dog was around I don’t think the cards were, but I always bought him a present. ?

I do buy my cat an advent calendar. She's pretty adept at opening the windows herself though, so the treats don't usually last until Christmas.

I agree with Friday!

Well no Alima but that's the first thing my son said when I told him. I forgot you can get edible ones so next year I shall shop for her card in a pet shop and not W H Smiths!

Alima Thu 23-Nov-17 08:24:45

Possibly Danni. Will she be able to eat hers?

When he buys me one I’ll reciprocate ?

I was buying the family Christmas cards - Husband/Daughter/Son and I saw one for The Dog so I bought for her one too. Does any one else buy their pet a Christmas card? Or is only me?
