I have noticed that a lot of gifts have disappeared! the combs both of the "new" flowers (for 15 and 20 points) the kiss, the yarn ball....etc. I can´t remember the others....why are they disappearing? I´d understand if no one was giving them but the cheapest ones? I really miss some of them (oh yes and the white bunny and tuna too)

Those gifts have just temporarily sold out, Lenaa. Don´t worry, they renew themselves every other day or so. Mark my words, they´ll be available again in just a little while. The problem is that they often sell out, because their cheapness causes them to be much in demand.

Guys: they are sold out, unfortunately.

13.June 2008 01:17 | changed 12.June 2008 21:19

but what does sold out mean then? because when I look at how much there are it said about 300 at least and after 15 minutes when I wanted to give the gift it was gone...so I don´t get it

and Muddy unfortunately I never noticed that a gift came back... (at least I didn´t notice...)

Yes I have to agree these days the selection for affordable gifts are a bit tight. I was wondering can there be any functions set up where user can create a gift and submit to the gift shop? (perhaps going through the mods for evaluation to see if they are acceptable, and to decide the points...)

If you click on a gift that is paler than the others, you´ll see a message that it´s been sold old. Admin will add a new supply some time in the future or replace it with another gift.

What gift were you looking at that said 300, Lenaa? If there were 300 remaining, you should have been able to give one. Please let me know - it might been a glitch in the system if it appeared to sell out so quickly.

(perhaps going through the mods for evaluation to see if they are acceptable, and to decide the points...)The title of this thread has been changed to include new gift ideas. Would everyone please post the things they would like to see available as gifts. Then the ideas will be collected and passed to Admin for their consideration.

I´ll go first with the new ideas. How about a butterfly, a piece of Swiss cheese, a ladybug and some pretty flowers and little angel wings for the rainbow cats. And please bring back the kiss and the ball of wool - they were lovely gifts.

How can a virtual item be out of stock?

I love the idea of the wings gift, Marcatmm! A few ideas of my own: tiaras, crowns, Clouds with a ´9´ on the side for rainbow cats, cute blankets, baby-bottles of milk for kittens, fake snakes, packets of dried catnip, etc.

I would like to see little balls (NOT just beach balls) that cats usually play with. And, MIracle said she wants anything with FEATHERS. So ...are feathered sticks a possiblity? What about bells? Chimes? Bags of dry cat food, cat treats? Yes, marcatmm...butterflies would be nice. And, more flowers.....too. I like the idea of angel wings or little angels.

13.June 2008 02:41

I love the idea of angel wings, too!! Also, a king prawn, creme caramel (flan), a scoop of ice cream (especially for the summer!), laser pen, and rubber ducky...

13.June 2008 03:08

I like the ice cream cone or scoop of ice cream for Summer.. What about a camera? to remind everyone to take more pictures of their kitties?

I couldn´t possibly take MORE pictures of my guys!!!!

I would love to see a ham for giving. They all love it so much!

How can a virtual item be out of stock?That´s a question right up there with "what is the meaning of life"? I´m continuing to ponder both.

I like the idea of an ice cream cone,thats a great idea

well marcatmm I honestly can�t remember but it doesn�t matter (at least to me...) don�t worry about it
hmm....maybe...we don�t have a scratching pole do we? maybe that would be nice and I agree with all the ideas for gifts that you mentioned the wings ice cream,cloud, milk and all that stuff

Petunia suggested maybe a dog in a doghouse as a gift idea, as personally, it seemed to her one of the more practical, yet valuable and greatly appreciated gifts she could ever imagine.

13.June 2008 07:08

we can also have those laser lights toys, cat bowls, colorful collars or even feather toys...
how about cat clothes...

This may sound a bit insane but the one thing my cats absolutely love is a waste bin full of paper and the ring that you get around milk bottles to seal it. Love the other ideas. Maybe nice frames my babies would love to see some of their photos in funny frames.

Marcatmm, could you find out if it would be possible to invent functional gifts, like the photoframes for putting pictures of your cat in? That would be just too awesome... and it would certainly feel more like the gifts were worth their cost if the person you were sending them to could interact with them, and not just stare at them... Just a bit of food for your thoughts... ^.^
