Hi everyone!

Sorry I have been unresponsive the last few days, I was away to a music festival and just got back yesterday afternoon and was way too tired to do anything but sit on the couch and relax.

The entry date is now closed and I will be matching up names now (and you'll receive yours by the 4th at the latest).

For those members who cannot view the social group I'll post all the rules here as well so you are completely up to date:

1. The deadline for signing up is July 1st. You will need to PM me: your name, address, number of cats and their sexes, sizes, any allergies or dislikes they have, and any other information you want to share. Also let me know if you are willing to exchange with someone overseas. I will send you the name you'll be buying for by July 4th.

2. The minimum you agree to spend is $30. You can spend more if you like, but you may not receive a gift of the same value in return.

3. Deadline for sending out the gifts: July 21st . PM me to let me know you've sent them out.

4. You may open the gifts as you receive them, so please identify yourself inside the package. Remember overseas postage time might be a bit longer, so try to get those packages mailed ASAP.

5. I think it would be fun if at least one small part of the gift is homemade. Don't stress about it--but be creative!


I would also like to get a slush fund going in case someone doesn't receive a gift. If everyone who agrees to this could Paypal me $1,00 or $2,00 that would be great. I'll send my email address along with your name as I prefer not to post it on a public forum.

If you have any questions just pm me and I'll respond as soon as I can. Thanks everyone for having confidence in me organizing this :ThumbsUp:

Let the fun begin!!!

Love,
Liz.

Just did the math with Susi and if we all contribute $3.00 to the slush fund it can cover one gift + postage. I hope that's ok!

Hi everyone!

I have sent out all the names, please let me know if you didn't receive one.

Also want to add that not everyone added info on their cats (likes/dislikes/allergies etc.) so it would be nice if you posted it here or in the "Christmas in July" social group to give people some inspiration.

Have fun everyone!!

Love,
Liz.
