he really did love them, I only ordered 20 because I was going to send them to cat people only and the rescues/breeder that our cats came from but he wants me to send them to loads of other people so that's why I need another 20!

Well i think this design is perfect for say a mug shot perhaps even 2 but maybe abit harder for 3 or 4 + cats, I like this years one myself but i suppse if i was ordering next year i'll need a different one coz i wouldnt want peeps to think i was a cheap skate and using ones left over from this year  :evillaugh:

I reckon these cards will be even bigger next year (orders not physical size  :evillaugh: )  So atleast you'll have a better idea of popularity and what to expect, we could also maybe think about ordering fairly early on to prevent you living in front of the printer and in the post office, We mustnt forget you have a full time job that you do aswell  ;)

My cards arrived yesterday Tan and they are just so LOVELY, infact they are FAB  :Luv:

We had our mate round last night with his partner and she loves cats and thought they were absolutly fantastic.  (she's also just about to get a kitten or cat from the local cpl  :)  )

The purrsnip fish well....... :shify:   Cody was being a bit of a pain with my guests and exhibiting yob like behaviour attacking their feet and licking them so i was naughty and gave him his fish (meant to be xmas pressie)  .... The um er fish doesnt look so much like a fish anymore and i had to take it off him in the end  :shocked:
I'll have to get him some more  :doh:

Oh dear this is silly.

Spent £43 on Christmas cards on charity card site this morning, then saw this thread and couldn't resist. I swear I was going to skip sending cards this year and give money to charity. Now I've got to write them all  :doh:

Thanks Tan
Just ordered my cards..

Well it would seem you have lots of things in the pipeline.. Another idea what about a Identity tag for cats one side purrs logo the other people can go and get engraved with cats name etc.. Although of course all cats should be chipped as well...!

The notepaper would certaintly be used by me.... if you get a decent price could sell stationary sets of notepad, envelope and labels. Great present for Christmas...

All thoughts i keep thinking up...while doing the washing up...!

Keep doing the washing up then hun  :evillaugh:  ;)

Id tags!!  ;D well lol this is something i also have here already  :evillaugh: They are 25mm wide in diameter and have a photo insert on one side and a metal back. I thought that i would have to put all the details in the photo insert side so there wouldn't be room for any Purrs logo or persoanlized pic but Hun you just solved by having the metal back engraved with the info  ;D The engraving is something i couldn't do from here though.

Here are the pics of the products cat bowls and the id tags i have as example products not in shop yet.  Wasn't sure if they would be liked or not.
