    Just what this person was thinking.

    This is the package I received in my mail this afternoon. The box is barely deeper than a VHS tape. And that bulge in the middle is the stone Tiger kitten I bought off eBay for a friend of mine. The seller just shoved it right on in there and forced it closed. Now, honestly! What could they have possibly been thinking?! The box was distended a full inch and a half on either side! The kitten came out unscathed, miracle of miracles, but really. It boggles my mind.

    This person was also selling an emerald hatching empress dragon. Wonder what kind of box it got wedged into ๐Ÿ™„

          Wow ๐Ÿ˜ฎ Iโ€™m surprised it came out unscathed. I would be curious and probably horrified to see how the empress turned out

          Iโ€™m wondering what the Postal workers were thinking when they let that one slide through. My postal workers always ask me if the box looks โ€œdistendedโ€ or if itโ€™s fragile or whatever. Theyโ€™re anal about packaging.

          Really? I guess so they donโ€™t have to deal with claims afterwardsโ€ฆ Itโ€™s nice to know some folks in the USPS care about doing a good job.

              Geez. And there *are* boxes that will fit the Tiger and Puffin kittens rather well, too. โ€ฆthat cost less to ship, even.

                  Oh gosh, Kalandra ๐Ÿ™ I hope to goodness they had a little more sense in regards to your empress. Obviously it wouldnโ€™t fit in a box this size, or even the smaller version of the square flat rate box. So hopefully they had no choice but to go with an appropriate box, and you will receive an intact dragon.

                  I definitely plan on mentioning to the seller how risky it was to send the kitten this way, even if it did arrive alright in the end. Itโ€™s just common sense, put the item in a box that fits it!

                    Oh no ๐Ÿ™ I hope she arrives ok. Let us know how it turns out. I hope you get her soon, and safely of course ๐Ÿ™
