hi! i have responded to a few posts lately to send birthday cards, well wishes etc. to RAOC folks' pets, and i have absolutely LOVED doing it. it's SO fun to write directly to a cat who I KNOW is going to be judgy about what i say lol. so i had this idea - can your pets write to meeee??

they can chirp or woof or mmrrrrp their way through a card, or you can translate for them if you'd like. but i'd love to hear about what they're up to. [pet photos not required but WOULD I SAY NO??? NO!]

My address is the same if you already have it, or please PM to get it. If you'd like a response card of me --> pet, i'd adore that! please add a return address and a human name I could address it to on pet's behalf.

THANK YOU!!
