The critters have come bearing gifts. Unfortunately, one of those gifts won’t be tact… which will lead into another appalling version of the Shelf Critter Secret Santa exchange. It’s time for another name drawing…
CHIP: You know, I already had a bad experience on the receiving end of this silly game. Can’t I be excused from the giving half?
Oh, a selfish little prick, huh?
CHIP: No, I don’t mean it like that! I mean….. my gift was garbage anyway, so it’s not like I’d be gypping…. oh, to hell with it all!
CHIP: Oh, just end my miserable life right now….
Well, that’s a distinct possibility drawing that name. Good luck!!!!
CHIP: So…… um….. I have a gift for you…….
ZEEBA: YAY!!!! Zeeba likes getting gifts! Gifts of BLOOD!!!!!
CHIP: Well……. it’s……. um………. (Thinking to self) Crap, she’s not going to like this Slinky I bought her……
ZEEBA: Well!?!?!? Where’s Zeeba’s present!?!?!?!? Give it up, Fatty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
CHIP: Uhhhhh……………….. errrrrr……………. it’s…………….. I’m sorry! You can buy whatever you want!
Chip tosses his wallet and runs for his life….
BEARCAT: Wow, Sis! Look at all this money in here! We can buy us each a Barbie Doll!
ZEEBA: And a gallon of BLOOD!
BEARCAT: And a My Little Possum figurine!
ZEEBA: And a package of bottled BLOOD!
BEARCAT: And still have enough left over for an Easy Bake Oven!
ZEEBA: So we can bake BLOOD COOKIES! BLOOD BROWNIES! BLOOD CUPCAKES! BLOOD! BLOOD! BLOOD! BLOOD! BLOOD! BLOOD! BLOOD! BLOOD! BLOOD! BLOOD! BLOOD! BLOOD! BLOOD! BLOOD! BLOOD! BLOOD! BLOOD! BLOOD! BLOOD! (Stuffs a bunch of bills in her glittery Charles Manson backpack) BLOOD MONEY!!!!!
BEARCAT: Silly Zeeba!
Evil Squirrel's Nest 
wow that was a good way to get the wallet…..
Yes, it would be illegal in most countries, but not on The Shelf…
I wonder if that wallet trick would work with my husband……oh…..wait…..I’m the one with the $$ and credit cards…….never mind.

Beware of a certain cat and the laser eyes….
Gifts of blood! I’ll have to tell Vlad about this one.
Makes sure he gives O, the gift for every type…
Oh Zeeba…you seem to have a fixation on the red stuff. What’s up with that?
Ha, Zeeba is adorable!
Zeeba is the original cute but psycho!
Zeeba should go to England. To listen to the English speak, everything is bloody there.
Chip dodged a bullet there (possibly literally). Unless he ends up in the Easy Bake Oven…
Chip’s too valuable of an actor to die. Zeeba can have her pick among the red shirt possums to try out her new oven…
