I gave it today as well as I knew I had one other thing stuck with couriers since before Christmas and that came today. Still no sign of this food, reckon whatever courier did the pick up has a hungry hoard of ferals and kept it for themselves :evillaugh:

DOG FOOD! And now that I've looked at that pic at the bottom, I think that's a pic of doggies on the packet so maybe they intended on doing this all along!

I just googled to make sure they did both Gill and they do. Don't know what I'm going to do with a bag of dog food, I don't even have a rescue too close by without making a trip especially. Oh well.

Marvellous.
I have just the following email to Bern ... hopefully they will reply.
Hi Karen,
Me again LOL. Just to update you on the auction items. Both the winners of the CAT food have received parcels ... however both of them have received DOG food which is of no use to them whatsoever as neither owns or knows a dog.
The cat litter has still not been delivered and the auction winner has asked me to pass on her Mobile number in order that the courier can give her a call if they are experiencing difficulty in finding her house: 0781xxxxxxx
We really appreciate Bern Pet Foods supporting our charity auction, however the palaver involved in actually getting the items and then the auction winners receiving the incorrect items has soured their experience and potentially damaged the good name of Purrs in our Hearts and Berns Pet Food.
Yours sincerely
Sam Stiling
Marketing Manager
Purrs in our Hearts

message received from Karen today:
Hi Sam
The original deliveries are lost! Sent out when it snowed / Christmas time and caused lots of problems, we are still having deliveries turning up.
I have been off sick and my colleague has been using your old email address trying to contact you as the lady below address was incomplete and the courier company couldn’t deliver.
I will send some vouchers to the auction winners as an apology for the problems. I am so sorry it all has gone badly wrong.
Kind regards
Karen Rodger

Which address was incomplete? As if the second deliveries got here then that would suggest they were fine!
Vouchers is definitely better than nothing :shy:
