"Owl I Want for Christmas"
Event: Christmas 2016
Scavenger Hunt and Writing Contest

Read the story here!
Don't worry, it'll lead you back here in a jiffy.
Hi there! Misty's here, with my new fluffy friend, Snowy! Me, Bear and Lucy met her after a big snow storm calmed down--which nearly turned me into a pupcicle--but now she needs our help!
Codename: Snowy
Adopt pets at Misty n' Friends!
Do you want to tell our friend why, Snowy?
Yes! Well, you see, I'm one of Santa Paw's messengers, I-
How cool is that???
Misty...
Oops, continue Snowy.
Well, I deliver your pets' letters to Santa Paws himself! It's super exciting, but right now I'm just really worried. You see, one of your pets wrote a letter the other day, and I was assigned to deliver it. I was on my way today when the snow storm hit, and, well, I lost it!
And that's where you come in! You know the Hangout like the back of your hand, and since we critters don't have hands, I figured you would be the best help we can get!
I would be so grateful! ^v^
Snow Seeker
Scavenger Hunt
Optional part one of the Christmas event
Snowy, Santa Paw's messenger, has lost a very important letter to Santa, which your beloved pet had written. Poor little gryphlet. Would you like to help us find it?
How to Play
Your pet's letter will be hidden on any of the site's pages. Search around the Hangout until you find the letter, and then send me a message with a link to where you found it!
Rules
1. Follow all MnF forum and site rules and adoption guidelines
2. Once you find the letter, please don’t tell anyone where it is. Some people may still want to try and find it themselves, even if it has already been found.
3. The letter will not be hidden in posts, profiles, or signatures. So for example, you might be able to find it in the Adoption Den page, but it won't be on page 34 of the Jabber box in one of my posts.
Finding the letter will give you bonus points to win Snowy, but it doesn't mean you'll get to keep her as a pet (but you'll forever hold a very special place in Snowy's warm, fuzzy heart)! To adopt her, check out the second part of the event below.

Writing Contest
Hey, you found the letter! You deserve a nice, warm cup of hot cocoa for digging through all that snow (I told Meesh about the popcorn, she hasn't come around yet).
It looks like you're all set to deliver that letter, and just in time for Christmas, Snowy! ...Snowy?
Oh snowman...I, well, you see, it's part of my job to read Santa Paws all the letters, but I'm afraid your pet's handwriting is a bit hard to understand! Do you think you could help me one more time? I'll be your friend forever!
Well, we critters don't have hands, after all. X3
How to play
I'm sure you can decipher your pet's scribbles! Choose one of your pets to write a letter to Santa Paws! Then fill out the form below and post it here.
Form
Copy, paste, and post your filled out form within this thread
- Entries will be judged based on cuteness, funniness, and creativity.
- If you don’t have a pet you can always make up one, or write the letter in the point of view of an anonymous pet.
- Your entry should be in the format of a letter to Santa Paws, asking for something for Christmas.
- No more than 300 words (3 big paragraphs), please!
The winner wins Snowy, the mutant owl gryphon!
Event has ended!
Snowy sends a big thank you (she's at Santa Paw's workshop right now!) to both Brownie and TLOSpyrogirl for their huge help in translating those letters. They were hilarious! And thanks to your help, on Christmas morning they found in their stockings and under the tree just what they wanted. ^u^
After much deciding, and with much help from a second opinion, we've decided that the winner of the contest is TLOSpyrogirl! Who translated, quite humorously, the letter from her little pup, Soniki. We thought the added drawing was a creative bonus that we simply couldn't turn down. XD
I'll be messaging TLOSpyrogirl the codes for her new pet, Snowy. Congrats!

Meesh: Guys, I brought the popcorn!
YAY!!1!

And it's an owl, with a fancy scroll! But of course, may the best entry win. xD
