View Full Version : What are your pets getting for Christmas?
:D I am so excited already about Christmas, I love spoiling my animals. We always send something to our sponsor dogs too, and I enjoy picking things out for them too.
What do you plan to get your animals for Christmas, or do you not do Christmas for pets? I know some don't.
I don't have children, so I spend all on my furbabies instead!
Only 45 days to go! :Razz

Well it won't be one of the £1.99 meaty bones from Tesco, got one tonight and it was gone in less than 5 mins, and I do mean gone, not a trace of any bits anywhere.
Bliddy expensive treat that he won't be getting again.

We will have our puppy by christmas, but havent really thought about it. Because he is our first, and its so close to christmas, everything is brand new already, so maybe a few little treats and a new toy!

eeek! I'm a huge animal lover but draw the line at buying them christmas presents - they get fed bits of xmas dinner so thats enough for them lol
dogs are getting new flashing lights for there collars for their night walks ,the cat will get a new toy ,horses will get a loaf of bread each and a neep . they will love it oh and dogs will get a squeaky toy too
We have a few dogs, as most of you already know and of all ages, so depending on the dog itself,
we don't in general give our dogs meat unless it is freshly cooked by me, but at Christmas they all have a meal of meat,
treats are those jumbones and Jed (the springer spaniel, usually gets a new ball) a day out, usually at the beach and then onto the forest.
We never leave them out, and as someone earlier said that they have no children and that their pets are their children,
actually when I come to think of it, all of our animals get treats and more especially at Christmas,
one thing I won't be buying this year are those hard fruity treats for horses
as Jocky (one of the clydesdales) spat it back at me last year! cheeky thing.
At bed time, no doubt they will have their fair share of chocolate drops.;)

We love christmas too and the dogs get spoilt rotten.. Our christmas present this year though i dont think the dogs will like it so much to begin with.. its a little 'baby brother' to join the pack.. a french bulldog, he is 5 weeks old today and we wll be getting him late dec (all being well) he is soooo small
Apart from that the dogs get lots of presents wrapped under the tree. they love opening their presents. Ive not bought them yet but will start soon getting them (usually more kong toys) ropes etc.:Razz lucky dogs
Easy..Poppy dog will get some chicken (her restricted diet makes treats a no no)...and definately no sprouts!
Frodo will get another collar chosen by a small girl (probably something an adalt male cat wont want to be seen in and pink)
Hamsters will get new housing after the near death fight they had..and the emergency cage being dug out!
Fish...bloodworms.
Hubby will get pants or socks from the dog and hankies from the cat:lol:
Kids the usual pile of bits and pieces....from that fat man in the red suit!
My dogs will get a toy and a treat each. The cats are getting catnip and some new toys, no treats as one is slimming and its not fair :p
The rabbits are getting one of those water bowl with dispenser things, its heavier so they won't knock their water over.
Guinea pigs will have some hay rolls, they love those!
Hamsters, well I haven't decided yet, but they will be spoilt too! :)
Benjy will be getting some squeaky toys.
The cats are more difficult as not really interested in toys apart from sponge balls.
I'll be getting them some nice wool blankets to lie on to keep them warm and snug for Winter but these will be an early Christmas present.
Oh Bullielove how exciting that you are getting a puppy!!! Looking forward to some photos. x

And there was me thinking Matilda was your pig :)
We have similar as you know, we have 2 horses, 14 dogs, 1 cat, 5 geese, 30 white doves and those are just the pets.
Me thinks, a day away from the croft will be a good as any present we could give our furry / feathery children.
