We’re still shooting for 2023 Balloon Juice Pet Calendars to be available for order on December 1.
We need your help TODAY in order to make our deadline!
We have over 300 pet pics for the calendar, so there are TWO BJ Pet Calendars again this year. We are calling them Calendar A and Calendar B, just as we have been doing.
If you submitted photos of more than one pet, all of your pets will be placed in either Calendar A or Calendar B.
Please check the Pet Calendar links in the sidebar.
*The calendar files in the sidebar have been updated with all changes requested yesterday. Please check for your changes.
This is your chance to make sure we get it right.
If your pet is no longer with us, you can have a heart next to their name, if you like.
Please check for:
- Are all of your pets listed with your nym?
- Is the spelling of your pet’s name correct?
- Is the word “heart” there if you should have a heart for your pet? And empty if it should be empty?
- Are ALL of your pets listed with the same calendar? (look for either A or B)
- Even if you find your nym in Calendar A, please check Calendar B to verify that one of your pets didn’t accidentally land in the other calendar. (and vice versa).
If anything is incorrect for your pets, or if you have questions, please comment in this thread to let me know about it.

There are issues with a few of the photos. If you don’t regularly the email I have for you, please check your email.

*The calendar files in the sidebar have been updated with all changes requested yesterday. I think I got everything, but it never hurts to double check.

@WaterGirl: Thurston ate the calendar B L-Z page.
WaterGirl
@OzarkHillbilly: Wow, based on the error I just caught, that must have been broken yesterday, too. And not one noticed or no one said anything.
Go you! Fixed now.
Tom Levenson
All good for my overlords.
Steeplejack
Everything is perfect for Chip of Sighthound Hall in the B calendar. Thanks!
WaterGirl
@Tom Levenson: @Steeplejack: Yay!
Tom, I can’t wait for folks to see your two. That is one crazy/amazing picture.
Tom Levenson
@WaterGirl: ;-)

@WaterGirl: You’ve got mine appropriately marked in Calendar A and none for me in Calendar B. I cannot wait to order one of each, just to see all the overlords past and present. 🙄
RedDirtGirl
All good for me and Nola!
beckya57
@WaterGirl: ok thanks found it looks fine
Miki
All good for Sully (💔) and Ty, too – thank you!
OzarkHillbilly
@WaterGirl: Hmmm… It actually did work for me yesterday. The only reason I went there today is I had a nag I needed to satisfy.
zhena gogolia
Looks good for me. Thanks.
WaterGirl
@OzarkHillbilly: That’s strange. But glad to hear that, as long as it’s working now!
edit: Was your nag satisfied? Or is there something we should change?
Alison Rose
It’s not gonna throw anything off that it says “No heart” for Briery instead of being blank, is it?
WaterGirl
@Alison Rose: Nope!
K488
All look good for me!

In Calendar A, RC Gizmo should have a heart.
Sherparick
It was my mistake, but could you change “Farley” to “Harley,” so my sister does not kill me. Thanks and what a great job.
Alison Rose
@WaterGirl: Okay :)
WaterGirl
@wmd: I’m sorry. :-( Spreadsheet updated.
WaterGirl
@Sherparick: Rut roh. Spreadsheet has been corrected!

I see Bella and Mikey on calendar B, everything looks fine and I can’t wait to order! Thanks again for all the hard work putting this together!

Katie came dressed for the part.
She would like to thank the director, writer, producer and her loyal family fans for the opportunity to further her calendar career. 💐
WaterGirl
@eachother: hahaha.
Barbara I
Everything looks right for my gang. Thank you, Water Girl!
WaterGirl
Yay for all the reporting that everything is correct for yours!
oklahomo
Both of mine need the “heart.”
something fabulous
All present and correct! ….And, not-present and correct as well! :)
WaterGirl
@oklahomo: Spreadsheet updated, thank you.
WaterGirl
@something fabulous: I know, it’s sad without Milo.
something fabulous
@WaterGirl: yeah, thanks. I decided him with a heart would make me sadder this year. But i was trying to be clever and say I checked there were no random appearances in B!
Maybe next year, more fosters!!
WaterGirl
@something fabulous: Oh, i get it now! Oh well. Your cleverness went right over my head.
sab
Well I know which calendar I want. Best dog is best dog’s owner.
something fabulous
@WaterGirl: Nah, not so clever! You know the saying about if you have to explain the joke!
Gig sends warm greetings from her spot refusing to let me get up and get more coffee. 🦆❤️😈
GBinChicago
All looks good on my part — only error is one nym is Gary in Chicago and the other is GBinChicago, but that doesn’t affect the identification of the overlords in our house!
GBinChicago
My niece (bald dachshund) reports that everything looks good for her in Calendar A
Manyakitty
Posted in error
Manyakitty
Mine looks good. Can’t wait to see the calendar!
WaterGirl
@GBinChicago: Okay, I changed 2 from GaryinChicago to GBinChicago
GaryinChicago must have been an autocorrect – because the files themselves were labeled correctly!
