Get those photos in – the deadline is coming up soon!
The parts in this color below contain the information you really need to focus on for now.
🐇
Please let us know ASAP that you plan to send photos in, and the name of each pet. Even without all the pictures, knowing how many entries there will be allows us to get started!
If you sent me email with your pet names, etc and did not receive the link to the photo upload area, please send your message again.
🐇
We are using the same system as last year.
It’s a 4-step process, start to finish. (for you)
- Start the process by sending me an email message
- Use the link we supply to upload your files
- Check for your nym and names of your pets in the spreadsheet we’ll post later on BJ
- Notify us if anything is incorrect
🐇
To start the process, simply send email to watergirl. If you need more info about the exact email addresses, check out Contact Us in the white bar up top, for details.
Your message should include:
- your name
- your nym
- the names of all each pet that is going to be in the calendar
- if you would like a small heart with the photo of a beloved pet that you have lost
🐇
Details and the link for uploading your files will be sent to you by email once you send the email with your name, nym, and pet names.
🐇
With the election coming up, we want to get an early start (and early finish) because we will only get more distracted as Nov 8 approaches!
Calendars will be available to order by December 1.
The last-date for submitting your pictures is Nov 1.
Oh, and all calendar posts are Open Threads.

Speaking of pets: Your Cat Recognizes the Special Way You Talk To It, Study Finds
Do they always give a shit? No. But we love them anyway.

@Alison Rose: That’s always been my take: cats know when you’re talking to them, they even know what you’re saying (the gist, anyway): they respond only if they feel like it. Which, usually, they don’t…unless the question is “Do you want a treat/scritches/the door opened?”

Quickly glancing at the title, I thought it said “Open Threat and Reminder”.
Ceci n est pas mon nym
Somehow we’ve gotten on the mailing list for America First and we’re getting these bizarre mailers, a tiny little glimpse into what MAGAs perceive as rational campaigning.
Today’s was a doozie about how left-wingers are performing secret experimental gender surgery on YOUR CHILDREN.

@dnfree: The threats don’t come until we are right up against the deadline. :-)

Tikka and Champ are coming!

FYI.
NotMax
Also too, FYI.

@Tom Levenson: Oh, yay!
I don’t think I mentioned it above, but un-cropped photos are best so beth can crop them as needed.
WaterGirl
@NotMax: I first read that as 75 years and thought “that’s fair”

FTR: I will be sending you some pics: 2 @ willie maybe, the best floatin’ dawg ever, 1 percy, 1 Billie jean. Maybe 1 Billie Jean/Percy.

@WaterGirl: Y’all did wonders with my awful snap of Ponyo.

I might send Ponyo and Dobby pictures, but you do know that I am a luddite and can barely work a camera.

@WaterGirl:
Sent mine in earlier this afternoon!
WaterGirl
@OzarkHillbilly: Always good to have options!
WaterGirl
@sab: Did you send yours directly to my phone last year? We can do that again if needed.
WaterGirl
@SiubhanDuinne: Got them!
The bad news is that they are low resolution. Were they from your phone? We need higher resolution versions. Write or call me so we can figure out how to do that.

Cobweb & Burma just sent
My apologies somehow it seems to have sent 2 copies of each photie, not sure how I managed that
S Cerevisiae
Sent pictures of Bella the happy German Shepherd with her bucket and Mikey the feline king of all he surveys, haven’t had an email whether they were received.
WaterGirl
@kalakal: Easily remedied!
