Since both calendars were designed and ready for 2023, we are going to make the 2024 calendars using those designs, with covers updated for 2024.
Please check for your pets. Let us know in the comments if:
- all is good
- if we need to add a heart
- or if you no longer want your pet in the calendar
If there is a change to be made, let us know which calendar, your pet’s name, and what change you need.

Questions?
Alison Rose
My baby looks good!
Whomever belongs to the pupper named Smedley: Those are some looooong legs. Maybe it’s forced perspective, but it looks like that doggo would be taller than me on all fours.
sab
Yay!
cain
I got 5 cats this year to put into the calendar:
and then there is:
My daughter’s roommates have 2 more cats that we could add
My ex-wife might add hers. But we should have plenty of pets for the BJ Pet Calendar!
Di
Max and Minnie are looking good!
CaseyL
Jeannie (of beloved memory) and Oscar look fine!
Alison Rose
@cain: I don’t think we can add more? WG can correct me if so.
Miss Bianca
Mine are all accounted for! Thanks, WG!
geg6
All the geg6 pets are accounted for, so good to go!
Wolvesvalley
All is good with Daphne and Chloe in Calendar B.
Dan B
Wobbles, Miss Peach, Oscar, and BaBoo are fine as they are
Calendar A
Joy in FL
Aziraphale, Eowyn, and Hermes are all there in Calendar B.
I really enjoyed looking at all our BJ pets in these calendars. They are each so wonderful.
ann
May I add Theo, my one-eyed pirate kitty boy? (glaucoma) If so, where may I send a photo?
beckya57
Rocky and Scribbles look super-adorable, so we’re good.
Juju
Calendar B is fine with me.
persistentillusion
Spec and Phoebe look fine and dandy.
HumboldtBlue
Aristotle, oh my!
Memory Pallas
Can we add a pet if we’ve never been involved before? (Not sure if this is the same question as cain is asking – or if they already have some pets in there and want to add more.)
-big smile at seeing someone has named their pet “Aziraphale.”
Josie
My two (Teddi and Duncan) look good.
HinTN
Franklin and Phantom are right where you left them.
Thanks for doing this, WG.
eclare
Thanks for keeping up with this, WaterGirl.
Not my pet, but I love the kitty in the Christmas tree in calendar B.
bbleh
A / October / Mushy is alive and well and increasingly demanding. Thanks!
Any idea when it’ll be available? Will pick up a few as Xmas gifts if I can.
NeenerNeener
Calendar A looks good to me.
Tinare
Mine – Jackson and Callie in calendar b – are good.
zhena gogolia
I see Duby in both calendars — this is great! His mom will be delighted.
Sfinny
Boo and Caesar in calender A are good.
WaterGirl
@ann: @cain: @Memory Pallas: The designs are already done, using the photos from last year.
There didn’t seem to be much interest in adding new pets in the previous pet calendar post I put up last week.
If there are a TON of people who want to add there pets, beth and I will talk it over and make a decision.
So if you DO want to add someone new, go ahead and let us know in the comments, and let us know how many pets, and let us know if you have any pets already in the “2023” version.
Miki
The late, great Sully and current heart-throb Ty both look fab in A – ty WG!
WaterGirl
@bbleh: Since the design is basically done, they should be available soon.
Unless we have a TON of people who want to add photos, in which case beth and I will talk.
Kristine
Please add a ♡ to Gaby (Calendar B-looks like July).
Miss Bianca
@WaterGirl: Er, when I say “my lot”, I mean Roxy, Watson, and Iron in Calendar B. Thank you!
zhena gogolia
@Kristine: Oh, I’m so sorry.
raven
Artie is right.
kalakal
Burma and Cobweb look good, funny I could have sworn I sent ones of Peaseblossom and Virgil, but I obviously didn’t.
So all good
Joy in FL
@Memory Pallas: So cool of you to comment on that. He is so good, with enough mischief to be fun and interesting. It’s the perfect name for this particular cat.
WaterGirl
@kalakal: I don’t recognize those names, so I am pretty sure you didn’t send them in.
Manyakitty
My three (Manya, Asimov, and Heisenberg) are all rocking calendar A. Yay!
daize
All of our pets in calendar A are good to go. Thank you again for all of your hard work on this.
Alison Rose
@kalakal: Peaseblossom! We have a AMND fan :)
K488
All three of mine, Simon, Martha and Paul, are in Calendar A, and all are still with us, so no hearts needed. Of course, Simon is the youngest at 14, with Paul at 18 and Martha at 23(!), so you never know, but they all are healthy and we are enjoying every day with them.
TMinSJ
My pets are in calendar B, please add hearts for Chatty and Belle (both in May) and Maddie (September).
It’s been a tough year.
jackmac
My boys Bailey (dog) and Rocco (cat) are looking good!
Thanks.
Lord Fartdaddy (Formerly, Mumphrey, Smedley Darlington Mingobat, et al.)
I need B. Everything is the way it needs to be, as far as I go. Do we have to buy it again, or will we get it automatically?
MomSense
My grand kitty looks perfect!
emrys
All good in B for me.
danielx
Boris and Kiara looking good in B…..
strange visitor (from another planet)
hamilton and catie look dapper in calendar A.
grandmaBear
I just sent you an email with a photo of my Miss Lucca (formerly Lucky) who came to live with me this year, in case it’s possible to add one. Mac and Casper in Calendar b are fine, though Casper has found a new home – long story.
Elma
My pet pics in Calendar B are good, except that Eek (upper left on page 10) needs a heart.
Mel
@WaterGirl: Thank you, WaterGirl, for this and for all the time and hard work that you put into so many things for the blog. It is appreciated so very much!
Mel
@Alison Rose: Which fur kiddo is yours? I picture your baby as an awesome house panther!
Mel
All the kiddos look magnificent, but I have such a soft spot for ebony kitties after our beautiful tornado of a girl Brunhilde. Panther kitties steal my heart every time.
Van Buren
Fiona (Page 10, calendar A) needs a heart.
rekoob
Thanks again, WaterGirl, for doing this. My precious pup, Floyd the Barber (Calendar A, 6/13 in the PDF), looks great as always. The heart reminds me that his memory is a blessing.
Ann Marie
I found my Harley in Calendar B and all is good!
Alison Rose
@Mel: She is Briery, in December on Calendar B, posing on her red throne :)
Memory Pallas
@WaterGirl:
The calendars are great – did not mean to stir up anything. If you ever start a new design, I will add my cat.
WaterGirl
@Lord Fartdaddy (Formerly, Mumphrey, Smedley Darlington Mingobat, et al.): No one bought the calendars last year because Cafe Press didn’t have the calendar paper at the last minute.
A few people may have donated $10, I think, maybe that’s what you are thinking of?
So if you want a calendar, you will have to purchase it. :-)
WaterGirl
@grandmaBear: Got it! We’ll see what else comes in and then decide. thank you
WaterGirl
@Elma: Oh, no! beth and I both loved Eek! He made us very happy.
Mel
@Alison Rose: She’s so beautiful! I love her golden-green eyes and her lovely coat pattern!
WaterGirl
@Memory Pallas: Not to worry!
Alison Rose
@Mel: Thank you! She’s what they call a “torbie” — she’s got tabby stripes but also tortoiseshell markings, though I’d say she’s closer to a tabby.
Kristine
@TMinSJ: Oh my–so sorry.
Kristine
@zhena gogolia: Thank you–it was not unexpected. Not that it makes it easier.
A Good Woman
My girl Tabitha is in BJ Calendar A and all is good there. Thanks
kalakal
@WaterGirl:
I’m sure you’re right
They’ll be in the next one 😀
@Alison Rose: We do indeed 😀
WaterGirl
@TMinSJ: That’s just too much loss.
HinTN
@WaterGirl:
And so we will!
WaterGirl
@Van Buren: I’m very sorry to hear about Fiona.
WaterGirl
@Kristine: Oh, no, that’s so hard. I’m so sorry.
Villago Delenda Est
If Mocha is in the calendar (I don’t think she is, though) she’ll need a heart. Next year, Reebo and Zooty will appear.
Mike in Oly
All is good for ours.
Mrscoachb
Max and Sandy’s in their bunny ears are good to go, Calendar A
CliosFanboy
Please add a heart to Candy. She’s in September for calender A. Thank you.
Jazz is still good though. (March)
cintibud
Looks good! (Sonny, Nov, Calendar A)
KRK
Please add a heart to Clyde in the 3rd group for calendar A.
Thanks so much for persevering with the calendar project despite all the frustrations. They look great.
Shane in SLC
Calvin and Mia look good! (Well, Calvin looks fat, but no shaming here!)
GBinChicago
All four of mine in Calendar B looking good for this year (Seamus, Violet, Spooky and Max).
Butch
Scout and Ranger are in the top left panel of page 3 (I assume February) in Calendar B. All is good; I’ll be ordering several.
S Cerevisiae
Both our pets are in calendar B; Mikey the regal cat and Bella the goofball German Shepherd in her bucket. Unfortunately you will need to add a heart to Bella’s picture, we lost her in May at just over 12 years old. I will be ordering a few of them.
cvannatta
The photos of Mr. Stryper (Calendar A, page 11) and Princess of Quite A Lot (Calendar A, page 12) need hearts on them, as both cats have since crossed the rainbow bridge.
If there is room, I could send a photo of two black cats looking down from their tower, judgmentally surveying their kingdom.
Sis
Hi –
All the pets that I submitted look wonderful. WaterGirl, thank you so much again for doing this. It’s such a wonderful thing to have and save, and so special to give to family members.
The only change that I want to mention – if you have time, otherwise no big deal at all – is that on Calendar A, page 5, Angus should now have a heart. He passed away in February.
IF there is a lot of interest in adding other pets, I have a new dog that I could add, but we can absolutely wait for the 2025 calendar when that’s ready.
John Smallberries
All is good.
oklahomo
Muffins Cat and Monkey Toes look good.
shirk
