It didn't even cross my mind that this might happen - otherwise I wouldn't have aked you to send one.

Silly Australian government...

As mentioned above though THANKS for the effort I really appreciate it!!

Did they even say why? I'm sorry


One time I had to send my mom her thyroid perscription when she was visiting oz, and it was crucial she get it by a certain time and the stupid australian customs stopped it!! I was so mad.. I called everyone and told them all off
They finally got them to her but a couple days late!

That really bites for both of you!!! What the f!!!! Call them and just blow their minds with some jargons! I can't believe that. Sicy that worries me because we need to send medicine to a relative in Oz for her Hepatitis C. Now I'm wondering if they would stop it and delay it

I told the lady what happened and this was her response:

Sicy,
This steams me. I've mailed my honeysuckle to Japan, England, Germany and I don't remember where else right now. Never a problem, but, often the honeysuckle bags get to the buyer (usually to the U.S.) with a note from the post office appoligizing for destroying the package (they put everything in a plastic bag). I really believe it is post office cats. This is the first time (and hopefully the last) I ever heard this. I really wonder if again it wasn't a (illegal?) post office/warehouse cat getting to the package and the post office trying to cover it up. I will send only one skinny bag and see if it can get there once more. I will not let the post office defeat me (...well, maybe after this attempt, I will).
I'll e-mail you back if I've lost the address.
Thanks for all this information and your friend's e-mail.

LOL@ post office cats!
I just think Aus customs are straight paranoid
They probly thought it was pot

I just saw this now, sorry for my lack in replying.


And I wish I knew why it made him so ticked off... I had a little catnipped cow I let him play with. He seemed really ticked off at the cow... swatting it, jumping back, then jumping at it again, going in for the kill. He's a fiesty little guy, he loves to beat up his stuffed toys, but he had a whole different attitude to the catnipped cow. I'm also unsure if I like the idea of 'drugging' them, even if it is safe. (No, it's not just you thinking it, I *AM* a bit weird.
)

Oh, and Sicy, thanks for the link of the just honeysuckle toys. I'll have to look into how it affects kitties, if it's mind-altering, etc. or not.

Hi guys, I'm a little late in reading this thread...

"honeysuckle wood sawdust" This sounds like it would get through the lining and into cats mouths. Anybody have this problem?

Hey Tamme,
Check out the link to honeysuckle information that I posted earlier in the thread. I believe it addresses this concern

I haven't seen these Zoey pics until today. They are some of the cutest yet! She looks like she's being a ham for the cam, but really, she's just doing what kitties do.
What a sweetie!

Thanks Hydroaxe!!


So far Zoey has not eaten anything from inside of these toys


Princess I'd be careful about sending things to OZ... if they're just collars n stuff though I really dont see how it would be a problem..
