1. It has come to the attention of forum staff that Dollshe Craft has ceased communications with dealers and customers, has failed to provide promised refunds for the excessive waits, and now has wait times surpassing 5 years in some cases. Forum staff are also concerned as there are claims being put forth that Dollshe plans to close down their doll making company. Due to the instability of the company, the lack of communication, the lack of promised refunds, and the wait times now surpassing 5 years, we strongly urge members to research the current state of this company very carefully and thoroughly before deciding to place an order. For more information please see the Dollshe waiting room. Do not assume this cannot happen to you or that your order will be different.

    1. My cats ignore her when she is on her shelf, but are a bit more interested when she is on their level. I was photoing her in the garden, and mummycat was interested/scared at the same time:

      And littlecat got brave enough to see if doll hands were good for scritches:

      I wouldn't leave her accessible to them if she had a natural fibre wig on, as I've seen how excited they get when I'm working with alpaca and wool fibres, but she just sits on her shelf and they ignore her, which is fine with me.
       
    2. Adorable pics Vampy!
       
    3. My dog wants to eat them! It eats evrythings in its path:sweat
       
    4. I don't kow if my cat is in love with my doll but everytime she finds my doll near, she gets closer to it and start to bit its fingers D:! I was really scared the first time I found her doing that.
       
    5. i'm sure my dog would be eager to either chew or hump my doll lol. ...
       
    6. My dog Xeros, a boxer boy, would be very happy if he could chew on my dolls. I have to be careful, he's adorable but he thinks everything belongs to him so if he can he steals stuff from the table etc, well just anything he can get:lol:
       
    7. My dog doesn't care for my dolls, and probably just passes them off as "another thing in mommy's cluttered room" XD She isn't remotely interested in anything that isn't tasty, her leash (walk time!) or squeaks.... haha!
       
    8. My cat is exceedingly curious and inspects every single thing that comes into the house. She will sniff and inspect any new doll that is brought in. After that, she'll treat them like ... miniature humans? She especially likes to rub against my SDs, not realising that they may fall over. She is also very fond of photobombing them :P. But I'm lucky: she doesn't steal wigs or tear at clothes, and she wouldn't dream of chewing the dolls. Whew.
       
    9. My dog growled at my first bjd, but now he's used to them. I have one cat who is completely indifferent, one cat who likes to lick the wigs and sometimes will try and chew the hands, and a kitten who is the reason I can't have natural fiber wigs or leave my dolls standing (even with a stand)!
       
    10. My cats are completely indifferent to them and I hope it stays that way. xD
      Still won't leave my dolls low enough for the cats to be able to get at them, just in case. >.<
       
    11. My cats love eating stuff they're not supposed to, plastic especially, so I'd be a bit worried about leaving dolls out unintended. If the cats want extra attention they can be particularly destructive to things they've ignored in the past.
       
    12. My cats love eating doll wig, It will get damaged regularly. TAT
       
    13. My cat Kanga only occasionallynotices my dolls. But if she likes one (for whatever reason) she wants to sleep on them.
