What's a gotcha day?

It's the anniversary of the day your pet came home. Lots of rescue dogs and cats don't have a known birthday, so their families celebrate this day instead, and some celebrate both.

  • Their birthdayThe front says "Happy Birthday Biscuit", or "Happy 5th Birthday Biscuit" if you add their age.
  • Their gotcha dayChoose gotcha day and it says "Happy Gotcha Day", with the years since they came home if you like.
  • InsideStart from one of ours, like "The best day was the day you came home", or write your own.

How it works

  1. Say who it's for

    Mum, Dad, Gran, a friend, or your pet's own birthday or gotcha day. Add their age if you'd like it on the front.

  2. Dress them up

    Add a few photos and choose a party hat, a crown or a bow tie, and a party, a picnic or a pile of presents. We create their picture while you carry on.

  3. Make the card

    Choose from our birthday designs and see your pet on it. The greeting and the message inside are written for you, ready to change.

  4. Pick the day

    Choose when it should arrive, then check and pay. We print your card and post it in time.

It starts as "With love from all of us", and you can change it to anything you like.

Dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, horses, birds and most other furry or feathered friends. If we can see them clearly in your photos, they can have a card.
