Crap for Our Pets

This swap is for all the pet-loving sisters out there!

We will send THREE items for ONE partner:

1 Handmade item for the pet: This can be a toy, collar, bed, stuffie, rope toy, catnip toy, chase toy, bandanna, clothing, sweater, hair-bow, or baked treats like biscuits or chewies, a decorative sculpture for the fish tank, etc. Point-of-entry crafting skills for this is pretty low -- see the links below for ideas. Sew, crochet, knit, bake, glue, stuff... whatever you like.

1 Store-bought item for the pet: Again, this is wide-open: treats, toys, accessories are all acceptable.

1 item, handmade or store-bought, for the pet owner: This should be a pet-related item, based on your partner's pet. But it's for the person, not the animal. This can be a craft -- a kitty ATC for a cat-lover, a fish stuffie for the fish fan, a crocheted puppy for the dog nut -- or it can be a fun thing you found at the store -- dog breed rubber stamp, cat notecards, potbellied pig pen... THis should be based on your partner's taste in pets, not yours. It should be species specific, but it doesn't have to be breed specific. (So you don't have to try to find a mug with a Cornish Rex on it.)

Here are some links for ideas to get you started:

You get the idea!

IMPORTANT: You must post below:

1. What kind of pet do you have?
2. What size is your pet? (ittty bitty kitty or fat cat? Teensy chihuahua or giant mastiff?)
3. Does your pet have any issues with allergies or stuff it (or you) hates? (Mine, for example, won't wear anything in the hat family for more than 5 seconds.)

I made it international because I can't bear to leave out our sisters in other countries. Everyone should just try to be conscious of international postage costs and understand that if your partner is from another country, you might get smaller/lighter items.

If you have any questions, please PM me or post below. Have fun!
