So what was under your Christmas Tree? 
What pet did you get/give for Christmas?
I gave my budgies some seed sticks and a toy mirror.
I gave my hamster a tube to run through.
I gave my rabbit a chewy toy.

My cat got a box of tasty (and expensive
) Gourmet Perle catfood in sachets as advertised on TV by a somewhat aloof white cat.

Betty Chihuahua got a little red hooded coat and Mollie retriever cross got a nice knitted jumper. They were very clever too because seems they managed to knit me a hat and scarf set (my niece may have helped them I am thinking 
)
)
Dogs got new toys and chews.
Cats got a box of Whiskas treats.
And of course they all got lots and lots of turkey!

Gerbils got some seed and treats and tubes and then I got surprise gerbils that my family had managed to hide for almost a fortnight.
No idea what to call them and am still a bit stunned

Dog got some treats/new bed/harness/coat and toys.
Bearded dragon got bags of treats.... kinda hard to buy for as he won't eat his greens or herbs. He got a big fake plant to climb up too.
One of my gifts was a big fish tank and stand, got money to buy something to out in it as they couldn't decide what to buy. I'm thinking about a couple of salamanders or perhaps mudskippers (with the heater and full kit).

I think everyone has misunderstood the OP. It's about giving/receiving a pet for Christmas (), not what an existing pet was given.
I'm just hoping that was not what was intended.

I was once given a wee female baby rabbit along with a pink rabbit tied around her neck. I wasn't overly impressed as I had my own 2 males and nowhere to put this wee one. She was gorgeous too.

That's fine if you were expecting it. But obviously pets should never be given as gifts unless you're sure the person wants it.
I'm probably preaching to the converted here
