So it arrived damaged. Never mind, I thought, it's what's inside that counts...

Nothing? Sweet F. A?
This really is the calendar of disappointment and broken dreams. Grin
I love the way you're still laughing after 21 doors of shite and an empty door.
At least you have Ken.

Hedwig waiting patiently for her wedding invite.

Hedwig is almost as athletic as my cat, guns - maybe they could do a double act for the wedding.

Cheeseandcucumber · 22/12/2017 19:54

Mr Grey & Hedwig as an acrobatic double act would be fantastic!

DH had a rummage around the back of the calendar (not a euphemism) and pulled out two things we've already opened that must have slipped back there. I assumed Ken had stolen them.

So it looks like door 22 is genuinely empty Xmas Grin

I don't think they could top the shitter and funnel so emptiness is probably the only way forward.

Although I would have loved to have seen their eyeshadow, I bet it's really special. I imagine it's lumpy and stings.

Xmas Grin don't worry, sugar, Santa is most definitely real and Ken will be along soon once he's recovered from his catnip comedown.

Emptiness?? You mean 'negative space' Xmas Grin

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 22/12/2017 20:24

It's great that Mr Cheese is getting involved with the shitness. I'm disappointed his rummaging didn't produce another drug trumpet funnel but a valiant effort nonetheless.

Sorry Ken is feeling jaded tonight. Celebrity cats eh? Such divas Xmas Wink

Nan0second · 22/12/2017 20:50

Nothing?!
This may be the best thing in the calendar but I’m outraged by this. You deserve 1/24 of your money back

Annelind · 22/12/2017 22:28

I discovered this thread a couple of hours ago. I am in awe of the sadvent calendar, cheese, the other posters and the cats. My God, the cats!

Please may Edwin have a wedding invititation? Xmas Blush

Hedwig is gorgeous ...I’m assuming Ken is still sleeping like his furry fan clubXmas Sad

Good to know Santa is still alive and delivering cheese!

I’m worried that Ken may be stealing the glittery shittery as another poster insinuated.....especially as Cheese mentioned he wasn’t to be trusted previously (I haven’t forgotten).

I’m tired and hoping Sadvent will something shiney tomorrow..

I want a cat too!

sugarlost · 22/12/2017 22:40

Edwin is gorgeous too!

I think all cat wedding invite requests (with a picture) should be honoured unless Ken has specific criteria regarding guests....

665TheNeighbourOfTheBeast · 22/12/2017 22:57

Perhaps it was vanishing cream? And it leaked...
Sigh..I've been waiting so long to make that joke! At last, I can die happy.

Goodwill2Mandatorymongoosekind · 23/12/2017 05:35

You are being greedy. You got two gifts on 10/12 (or spider day as that date should now be known)

Nothing day makes you break even.

iwouldgoouttonight · 23/12/2017 08:40

Vanishing cream Xmas Grin

Annelind · 23/12/2017 09:15

Just noticed I managed to spell 'invitation' horribly wrong! Xmas Shock I hope this doesn't mean an automatic refusal from Ken who, I feel, would be quite dogcatmatic about this sort of error Xmas Hmm

kwick · 23/12/2017 10:38

catmatic 😂😂😂😂😂

Cheeseandcucumber · 23/12/2017 11:16

Xmas Grin invisible glitter, vanishing cream and catmatic Xmas Grin This thread has me giggling every morning!

Edwin is a beauty! Maybe Ken has stolen the items to get a start on the invites? I fear he's fallen back into his old ways and is probably using the eyeshadow to graffiti some walls with his threats for world domination.

Goodwill you're right. Instead of sulking I should have been playing with my dead spider.

Cheeseandcucumber · 23/12/2017 11:21

Door 23 is off to a great start as the item behind it is visible!

It's a blusher. I tried to swatch it and it took several goes before anything showed on the inside of the door.

So although the item is visible, the product barely is and I think it's supposed to be used with the invisible glitter/vanishing cream.

I fear ColourCature will be along soon to give us another delightful colour comparison Xmas GrinXmas Grin

Look who's dragged himself home, grubby and exhausted.

I don't know about you lot but I suspect that's the missing eyeshadow on his paws.

I think Ken is up to no good, seducing the local kool kittens with coscatmetics. This doesn't bode well for poor Misty Xmas Sad

ThePinkPanter · 23/12/2017 16:57

Oh no. If Ken's playing away when Misty's away it would be a cat-astrophe!

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 23/12/2017 17:03

Aw look at all the lovely purries on here & yes they can all come to the wedding.
Ken is having a 3 month stag do (he's so handsome with his milky chops......he reminds me of Aslan from Narnia

Actually Ken's been over today with Misty's Xmas gift, looks like something from CatCouture Grin

Ken is backGrin..I’ll bury my head in the sand regarding his shenanigans(he can’t upset Misty that would be shocking ).

Tracy only yesterday I was thinking Ken reminds me of Aslan too!
Did Ken stay long when he visited Misty? Did she have to wait by the window long?( I’ve joined the crazy club too)

Cheeseandcucumber · 23/12/2017 22:36

Ken is busy dreaming of his Misty.

Xmas Grin I'll be honest, sugar, I know Ken is my owner but I was starting to have my doubts so thank goodness Tracy has cleared up his whereabouts.

Should have known he would be spending time with his beautiful Misty. I had to double check he hadn't given the funnel away, I mean I know Misty is family now but the funnel is an heirloom.

Xmas Grin I think we've all lost our minds and HOF is to blame.

Aaahhhh I'm feeling all sad that tomorrow will be our last door. Never did I imagine the sadvent calendar would bring me so much joy through sharing it with you all.

I hope it's a good one, like an invisible funnel.
