Signups are now over and we will pull names and get the emails out to you towards the middle of next week.

If you need help with what to buy once getting your name and seeing the hints, you can post more questions here. If the person you are buying for does not answer the questions, you can PM one of our snooping santas to ask them to post. The snoopers are here to help you.


ETA - for those of you that don't have the time to answer all at once, the questions are broken up into categories so it will be easier to answer sections at a time.

Currently, we have 7 resident cats (some indoor/outdoor), 3 older kittens about 6 months which we are TRYING to find homes for, and a kitten around 6-7 wks that we are weaning off of KMR and is eating solid food. Plus our dogs: a chocolate lab, a Samoyed, a lab/shepard mix, and a pug. The dogs love everything although plush toys with squeaks in them last about 2 mins. They love balls or those thick "tug-of-war" ropes. For the cats, they play with just about anything...until the dogs steal it when we're not looking. One thing I can't find around here for some reason is those Mylar balls, the crinkly ones. Monster goes crazy over them and it's the only thing she will play with. Treats for the kitties? Temptations!

FOOD

What are your favorite types of food?
*Almost anything -- I love food

Favorite types of chocolate?
*I'm a chocolate snob. The garden variety stuff is a waste of time and money. My strong preference is for dark chocolate, though nice milk chocolate is good too. Not much intersted in white.
Do you like tea, coffee, or hot chocolate?
*Yes, yes, and yes. Don't actually drink that much tea, or hot chocolate for that matter, and the latter I prefer to make from scratch with whole milk and nice cocoa. Coffee is an every day ritual, dark roasts, unflavoured, though we do spice our coffee.
Do you like flavored coffee or tea?
*In coffee, I prefer to do my own flavouring; in tea, the flavoured ones can be lovely. Don't drink that much tea, but I really do enjoy things like the Celestial Seasonings ones, particularly SleepyTime, Red Zinger -- that sort of thing.
Sweet or salty snacks? If so, what are your favorites?
*Snacks -- salty, or salty/sweet together. Nuts are good, or combo things with nuts as the base. We've recently discovered a line of such things "Sahale Snacks" -- not cheap, but verrrrry good. There are a few chips things that we like, but mostly not.
Do you have any food allergies, like nuts?
*No allgeries that I am aware of, for which I am very grateful!
Would you eat homemade cookies sent by a person you only know via the internet?
*Not just anyone on the internet, but anyone who's participating in TCS SS has my trust.
What are your favorite kinds of cookies, esp. holiday cookies?
*In general, chocolate chip; for the holidays, shortbread (and a few other things my Dad used to make *sigh*)
Are there any ingredients that should be avoided (i.e. something you hate or are allergic to)?
*No allergies, but my least favourite things to find in baking are peanuts, walnuts and coconut
Do you like to cook and/or bake?
*Cooking is my therapy. To a lesser extent, I enjoy baking. I don't do a lot of it, and tend to confine myself to "seat-of-the-pants" baking -- pies, scones, fruit crumbles -- and not do things that require careful measuring. I'm mostly not a recipe cook, though I have been inspired by many recipes -- they definitely have a place, even if I use very few of them as is.
Do you like cookbooks? If so, are there any in particular you would like?
*Love them. I love to browse and drool and imagine. Occasionally a recipe will capture my interest sufficiently that I will actually use it as is, but mostly they are a resource and an inspiration. Unusual cookbooks, especially if they have a particular connection to a person or place, are great.

PERSONAL CARE
*Best to avoid this category entirely. I have quite sensitive skin, and therefore use few such products.


GENERAL

What is your favorite color?
*Not a single colour, but anything at the intersection of blue/green/grey
Any colors that you don't like?
*Most pinks and oranges -- there are a few exceptions, but it's safest to just stay away
Do you like more vibrant colors, pastels, or more muted/earth tones?
*For clothing, any except flourescent lime or hot pink, or that sort of thing; for decorating, or if someone was thinking of getting me the Jag I covet
, earth tones.

If your SS is from overseas, is there anything special you would like them to include?
*Well, not knowing precisely where they're from, it's hard to be specific, but I'd love to have something that I wouldn't be able to get elsewhere.
Are there any scents (candles/perfume/etc) that should be avoided due to allergies?
*Don't wear scents, and prefer to avoid scented candles, since many of them are heavy smelling.
How old are you? (roughly will do fine) 20 yr olds tend to like diff things than 50 yr olds
*Over 60
Do you like homemade gifts?
*Certainly.
Do you live in a house or an apartment??
*House.
What are your favorite "comfort" things that make you happy?
*My sweetie, my kitties, my friends, good food, good scotch, good music.
Do you prefer not to get cat-themed gifts?
*Cat-themed gifts are fine.
Is there something you would prefer NOT to get from your SS?
*Can't think what that would be.
Will you open your gift right away or wait until Christmas?
*My preference is to open a little before Christmas, while everyone is still around to share, but I don't like to open way early. I can get into the spirit of shopping early, but want to save the celebration for much closer to the day. Middle of December is about the earliest I'd go, I think. Now, if there are perishables, that shouldn't be left, by all means I'll open them, with pleasure!, but I hope doing so wouldn't give the rest of the surprise away.

DECORATING
What colors are the rooms in your home?
*Rental Ivory throughout
what is your decorating style?
*Style?
Do you prefer solid colors or prints, and if the latter, what kind (floral, geometric, stripes, etc.)?

Do any of your rooms have special themes?
*Chaos
Do you burn candles?

Do you put up Christmas decorations, and if so, do you prefer secular or religious ones, or doesn't it matter?
*Either is fine
Do you like Christmas ornaments/etc as a present?
*Tree ornaments are probably not the best idea. It's a small tree, and I have the ornaments I want. Other kinds of decorations could be fun though -- I have a really neat crocheted snowman who visits every year

Do you decorate your Christmas tree/house in certain colors?
*The house is a hodgepodge, but the tree is mostly glass, clear or amber, with touches of white, pewter, and a few nostalgia items

PETS

How many animals do you have? What kind (cats, dogs, etc!) Tell us a little about their favorite toys/treats!
*Only cats: 2 resident - Cindy and Fawn
*They pretend not to be interested in toys, but I notice the honeysuckle socks are looking seriously the worse for wear, and move around the house a lot, despite their glaring lack of legs. Others move around the house in similar fashion. As for treats, Whiskas Temptations seem to please both of them. Pretty much everything else is subjected to the curiosity test, and then abandoned.
Does your pet (s) have any allergies to certain foods/treats that should be avoided?
*None that I am aware of.
Are there any kind of cat toys that should be avoided? (i.e. feathers, string, noisy toys that scare kitty...)
*They are not impressed by bubbles. They have a laser pointer and both enjoy it. Everything else, well, see above.

*They wear Tenth Life reflective safety collars. Cindy's is black, Fawn's is purple. There's always a spare in the drawer for each, complete with ID tag, in case someone loses one.

*They have a regular brush/comb, and also a ZoomGroom.
Do your cats like catnip, valerian, or honeysuckle?
