Applications will be accepted until November 15th. 

​

Santa's will be paired up by November 18th.

​

Gifts need to be sent by December 9th.

​

All animals are accepted! Dogs, cats, reptiles, farm animals, you name it. 

​

THE BASICS

​

You can register each animal separately or as a family.

​

Separately:

Each animal will be paired with a secret santa. (For example, if you register 3 pets all separately.. you're then required to get a gift for 3 other pets. Also each of your pets will be paired to receive a gift from a santa)

​​

Please fill out a form for EACH pet that is applying separately!

​

Family:

All your pets will be classified as one group. (For example, if you register 3 pets as a family, you would then be required to get a gift for 1 other pet. Also, your pets will be be paired with only 1 other santa, to receive one gift to share.)

​

* If you get paired with a FAMILY, you are not required to buy a gift for each pet.*

​​

​Gifts can be bought online or locally!

​

Online:

Chewy and Amazon are great online options for pets! Though any website will do.

When shipping directly through an online website, try your best to change your name to Secret Santa, to keep anonymous.

​

Locally:

Feel free to shop locally! Some people prefer the in person experience which is great! Be sure to package and ship them at a local post office with your name as Secret Santa to keep anonymous.

​​

We ask a minimum of $10 is spent on gifts for each pet.

​

Receiving Gifts

​

Some gifts may be delayed during holiday season. If you haven't gotten your gift by December 25th contact us and we will get ahold of your Secret Santa.

​

You CAN open gifts as soon as you receive them, you don't have to wait until Christmas. If you want to wait, that's fine too!

​

Backup Santa's

​

You can also apply to be a Backup Santa if you like. 

Backup Santa's provide gifts for pets that for some reason never received theirs. (For example: Santa ghosted them, package was lost in the mail)

​

If we end up needing Backup Santa's we will contact you regarding the situation come December. Usually right before or after Christmas.

​

If we don't need Backup Santa's, and still want to gift an animal we will ask for cat and dog toys to be sent to us for local Shelter animals!

​

Notes

​

We cannot guarantee gifts will be sent. (As some people take advantage of this event, and fail to follow through.) We DO keep note of all names and addresses that fail to communicate, not send gifts or send gag gifts. Those participants will not be accepted for any future events.

​

If your Santa states their pets have allergies, please take note. If you aren't sure of the ingredients in treats, it's best to stick with toys.
