An Item and Some Announcements

Items



Shadow (#29394) has asked that this item be placed into Trash for Treasure until 11:59pm 16th June, in honour of their dog, Sobaka, who passed away due to bloat - an illness that could have been prevented if they had known the signs in time. To safe-guard your pets, she has asked I also include a link for you to read about this condition.





As you are probably aware from this week's current Art Gallery theme, tomorrow is Friday the 13th, and also coincides with a full moon. Due to the superstitions surrounding this day and the harm that often befalls pets because of them, we wanted to post a friendly reminder to keep an extra close watch on your furry friends (especially free-roaming cats and dogs outside) and to keep them safely indoors during this time if at all possible. <3





The final announcement I want to make is that apparently June is a very busy month full of anniversaries and things that people want to celebrate, and it's getting a little spammy up in here with my posting every few days. As such, until the volume of requests peters out I will be making one announcement every Saturday for all items that will be released that week.

This means that if you want an item stocked on a particular date, it must be in the Custom Item queue by 11:59pm the preceding Friday. For example, if you want to release an item on June 26th, your request must be in the queue by 11:59pm on June 20th.

I have also updated the guide to note that any future requests with no price or time limit added will be put in for the cheapest price for 24 hours - it is specified in the KB that these are important factors in your submission and are repeatedly missed =)

My condolences Shadow (#29394). Bloat is a terrible thing, thank you so much for taking the opportunity to educate the community. Knowing the signs can make a world of difference. I'm so sorry that this terrible thing happened to your fur baby. Thank you for the scarf. I hope your fond memories can bring you peace during this difficult time. �

Awww... I'm so sorry to hear about Sobaka :( Thank you for sharing and caring by making everyone aware of the conditions and symptoms. I've lost pets too as many here probably have as well, and understand your pain of the loss - of a family member.

Thank you so much for including the link!<3 I don't want anyone to experience the heartbreak and frustration I've been feeling. And if anyone wants to see what the scarf looks like, my HA will be modeling it. It's based off of the scarf I bought her on my trip to paris. She was so short I had to tie it like a bow so she didn't trip!

I'm so sorry for Shadow's loss. My family has lost 2 dogs in the past to Bloat . A third dog we were very lucky with; she got bloat, and as we were getting her into the van to take her to the vet, her stomach righted itself and she was able to survive without resorting to surgery. (we think it was her having to stretch up to get into the van that caused her stomach to untwist itself)

I'm so glad your dog avoided anything bad, wolfsgazeinthenite! It's nice to hear a happy ending.
