Cat sanctuary blankets...lovely! 2 of my daughters volunteer at the 2nd Chance Pet Network here, they're very active trapping and spaying and neutering feral cats from the dump as well as adopting out cats, some dogs and gineau pigs too. My 3rd daughter works fulltime at a no-kill shelter in South Dakota and is really fed up that so many people won't fix their animals, they get swamped. I want to adopt another cat but we're so busy over the summer I must wait until fall so that I can be around when our current cat has a hissy fit over the "newcomer". But as Vincent is getting a tad chubby, he needs a lively 3-6 month old to get him going again and slimming down! :D

HI Christine... it depends really on what else I am sending... probably about 20 is a good number for squares, and I always send it surface mail as a small packet I think. It is helpful to get an up to date price list from the Post Office (or online) and I usually weigh first on my kitchen scales to make sure the Post Office gets it right!!!.. sometimes have to watch that one!
