Ok it's Sunday so here is the Compliment thread to honor Jessica.
We can do it a few different ways
1)I can compliment someone then that person can compliment someone else like a chain, so everyone can get a compliment.
2) We can all just compliment people

But I'll start it, I am very glad that Karen and Paul created such a wonderful site, So I want to thank you both, because now us PTers can enjoy this site and we can all chat about our fur and feather babies

I think Amber (CamCamPup33) is one of the most nicest, caring people on pet talk. She is never selfish and comforts people when there feeling blue. Thanks for being a great friend Amber. :)

I think that Ashley (binka_nugget) is one of the nicest people here. She's always very fun to talk to on AIM, and she is as gross-minded as me! :p lol. So she's alot of fun. :D

GROSS MINDED!??! EXCUSE ME!?!?!? LOL hahaha..okay well this is hard because I love everyone here like my own family.

I've gotten to know some people better than others..so I guess I'll mention those few.

Wolfsoul: She's always thinking of sick/evil things to amuse me with. And also..for that endless supply of information on ratties and doggies.

Goldenretrluver: Julie's always cheerful and knows how to brighten a person's day.

Camcampup33: An all round fun person to talk to. I can never go bored when I'm talking with amber.

Kfamr: For speaking her mind...I wish I could do that all the time.

Primabella: For always amusing me with mickey stories and pictures of that cute little sheltie butt.

Tikeyas_mom: For that endless supply of rattie info and for those amusing early morning/late night convos.

I'd be here all night typing something nice about everyone I like...I love you all :D

Sick and evil things?! I have no idea what you are talking about! ;) :p You cheater! naming a bunch of people...

now I have to do that lol. :rolleyes:

Tikeyas_mom - for being such a good friend to me. For the fun sleepovers and laughing so very hard at the stupidest things we can find on the internet. For being fun and understanding. :)

Goldenretrluver - always talking to me on AIM. She's always very nice to me and fun to talk to. :)

CamCampup33 - Amber is always very nice and fun. :) She has alot of spunk, and there is never a dull moment when talking to her on AIM. :D

RICHARD - Always being the life of the party! He has such a wonderful sense of humor, and I find myself asking myself how I couldn't have been so clever as to have said what he just did. :rolleyes:

Ilovemyabbeygirl - Always very nice and fun to talk to on AIM. She replies to threads that haven't had alot of recognition, and that's cool of her. ;)

Luckies4me always has something nice to say about my ratties or some tidbit of info to offer that I didn't already know.

PCB is a really good moderator. She's better at smoothing ruffled feathers than anyone else here!

Since I'm the sappy one...if I listed everyone I wanted to write about, this thread would be a hundred pages long. ;)

So, I'll just say this:

I enjoy each and every person here on Pet Talk. Even if we don't agree on something, we all have our love for animals in common and that's enough for me. :)

Love you all!

Love,
Kelly :D

:o :o :o Thanks WolfChan. :o

There are SO many people that are very very kind and loving here, and I have so many friends here, but at this time, with my mind on Jessica, its really hard to think of anything but her. :( She was always my favorite PT'er and always so sweet, cheerful, innocent, happy, and always had something kind to say. Rest in peace Jessica. :( We miss you terribly. :(

At this point, Noahsmommy and Wolflady come to mind, by always being so kind and loving, and for always being there for support and care. Two very soft hearted young ladies. Thank you both, and all my friends here, who I'm sorry to not name at this time, for always being there for me.

I have so very many friends here and can't name them all. With my mind on Jessica, I know I'm going to miss so many that mean so much to me, if I even start making a list, so until my mind heals, which won't be for a long time, I'd rather not make a list of compliments. :( In Jessica's memory, and for her always being so kind and generous, I just want to say that you all mean so much to me and that this is such a wonderful forum. I don't think there is any other board like it. :( Although we have differences and get in arguments sometimes, the support by the people here is overwhelming. I just want to thank you all for always being so kind and considerate.

I could not even begin pick out one, two, three or even ten people to write about from among all our Pet Talkers!
Pet Talk is so diverse, with different ages, personalties and views all brought together by our love for our pets. And once here, that love encompasses all the other people and pets too. I believe we have a truly unique community.

Agree with you or disagree with you, I love you all. And I thank each of you for all the help and concern you have given and shown, for the laughter and fun, for letting me see some wonderful pictures of some beautiful creatures and....well, just thanks for being you!

Love
Chris

We've had a compliment thread before.... but, We can always use another. :)


I will be visiting back every now and then as I have alot of people here who mean bunches to me.

I will start off with my favorite.

Amy, Wolf_q - I'm so glad we had finally met. It was so awkward how we did meet. All of the sudden, dad and I walk out of the room to get things from the truck and bamm. There's you, Melissa and Nebo standing in the hall. We both froze. I crack up everytime i think of it. :p

I had lots of fun with you in the parking lot, even when Nala decided the black top was the best place to do her horse impression. :o I know, I know, I didn't talk much at all. I still loved spending time with you, Melissa, and Nebo.

Again, I am really glad I got to meet you in person. You're such a wonderful young lady and you have lots of talent. The cover you did for the "Guestbook" at the BarkPark was amazing, even though you had short supplies.

One day I hope to come visit you in Utah as well as you visit me in Florida.... One Day... one day.......;)



Oh yes... and a ShoutOut to Teh late nii!!ght PeTtalker AIM chat Krew cuz we R da KeWli333eeezz!!!!!!!!111

07-27-2003, 07:31 AM
It is sooo hard to pick out a few names...! There is hardly NOWEONE on PT that I do NOT like!! We are one large family, always ready to comfort each other! I know what I am talking about; last 2 months, I went through an extremely hard period with my operation and getting better. It is almost impossible to explain the impact of all the good wishes I got here from ALL of you. It made a real huge difference in lmy recovery!!
So, EVERYBODY is the best :) :) :) :) :)

puppygrrl4eva7~

Really, when I met you at the Pet Talk meeting, I thought you would be so much different. I guess I thought you to be just another little kid, since you are sort of younger ( not TOO younger ) You're a very sweet girl. :)

Corinna
07-27-2003, 08:58 AM
While I don't post much any more I do still read you all every day. I would be lost with out you. I "m very thankful for Karen and Paul for starting this home for us all. Also K9 Karen for being so kind when I first started posting.(after several months of just reading) I too will miss Jessica and her cheery posts.

Thank you Kfamr for the compliment, You seemed nice too I was just kind of shy because I though you would think I was just an annoying little girl, I am always so self concious.

07-27-2003, 09:39 AM
I'm with everyone else, there are just too many to compliment them all. Great idea for the compliment thread, it's nice to read all positive. Here are just a couple of the many I could choose.

Cataholic: What a great friend you are and a great person for saving Binxy boy and doing everything you can to get him right and healthy and for taking a feral cat and turning him into a pet. I know I can always count on you for the truth too.

RICHARD: An incredible wit that I wish I could match. Thank you for caring so much about my mom and her back. You always know how to make me come back to reality when I stray. OH, and of course our Thursday drink specials.

Cincy's Mom: A great friend who puts up with me calling everything I want to save an animal and for driving almost 5 hours to save Spotty Boy when I was desperate.

Sudilar: A great mom to Killi and Shiloh. She always is there when Killi needs her and she will move heaven and earth to make sure he is well and on top of all that, she helps with the rescue of homeless dogs.

Kfamr: Such a mature young lady who has grown so much over the last year who has wisdom beyond her years.

ramanth: You love Kia so much and put all on hold when she was sick. You've helped out with transports that I was desperately trying to help fill. You and Andy have become good friends. You tolerated our big bunch and our dirty house when you came to visit! lol

ChrisH: You're such a caring individual and always know when I need a pick me up and send me a private message (although I don't think I've ever told you that :) )

anna66: You helped me save Rose and allowed her to destroy your house before we found her a place at our shelter, for that I will be eternally greatful. You are a great mom to your furkids and others, like the time you picked up the last leg of a transport and then lived through my rotten directions and Mike and I had to meet you and Mark under an underpass!

Oh geez, I'll be here forever, I'll stop now, but please know that I could compliment so many.

I would like to compliment PCB on her sensitive, loving tributes to Jessica. Reading PCP's posts (as well as those of others) has helped me in dealing with my own grief over this tragic loss. You took the time to share your feelings and rememberances. The process probably was difficult for you, but I do believe it was a big help. Thank you.

Phred, I think you already know how much I enjoy your *channeling* for Cinder, Smokey, and Boots, always did, always will. Please, please don't ever stop letting them have their turn at the computer. The fun and laughs you have provided are truly priceless.

Tikeyas_Mom~ For always being a fun person to talk to and for always being a good friend.

ILoveMyAbbyGirl~ For helping keep sanity in Mike's chat rooms, lol. ;)

Shellonabeach~ For helping me so much with my gerbils. :D


Yeah there's tons more, but I can't post them all so just know that each and every Pet Talker means something to me. :)

Karen
07-27-2003, 11:55 AM
I can't believe I get to be the first to compliment Sandra, (Tatsxxx11) who as well as having more than 9,000 posts, always has something nice to say about each and every Pet, Dog and Cat featured, and is always kind in her other posts toward humans as well.

Thank you to all the anonymous lurkers, may you someday get brave and join us!

Thanks you to all the members of Pet Talk, those I have met in person and those I have never met, for making Pet Talk the very special community it is.

And thanks to Paul most of all. Without his hard work, talent, and nearly infinite patience, this place couldn't exist at all! You all may not see him post as much as me, but I'm also more of a blabbermouth in person! He does a lot of work to keep Pet of the Day, Dog of the Day and Cat of the Day running, as well as Pet Talk! Thanks!

PetTalk in general. Thank you for being such a wonderful place to talk about my babies.
Molly/Mike, your HUGE HUGE hearts to rescue and save so many that need it, now if we could just get Molly to like Cats! ;)

The thought that came to my mind is that everyone on this board should be complimented.

When I read the post by Jessica's Mother I was shocked. Then when I continued with that thread and saw the second post by her Mother, I literally could not breathe for a moment.

How brave indeed for Mary to come to this forum, her daughter's favorite, and share her grief.

Whether the "right" words came to mind or not, look at how everyone has responded to this tragedy. We have lost one of our own and it breaks our hearts.

We came from all over the world as one - to offer our sympathy and prayers to Jessica's family.

Compliments go to each and every one of you.......for being the caring, loving people Pet Talk has become.

Foam
07-27-2003, 01:20 PM
I couldn't even begin to pick out somebody! Buutt....

Julie (GoldenRetrLuver)- Thanks for being a crying shoulder in this horrible time. I really enjoy talking with you :D

CamI's Mama ;)- Fuuuuun to be with! Lookie all the compliments you have already! :)

Kayann (Kfmar)-I ilke reading your posts, and looking at your beautiful babies. :)

PCB-I admire how strong you are. We all know what great friends you were with Jess, and you're pulling yourself through it. -hugs-

And EVERYBODY else on Pet Talk! I LOVE you all SO much! You guys are close to me as family. I couldn't even begin to explain how much I care about you guys, and how close you are to my heart. I lvoe you all soooo much. So does Darlin. ;)

I love you all! Because of my arthritis before I found PT, I spent most of my days in bed, just doing what I needed to do to keep going. Now, besides my cats, I have you and all your adventures and furry, feathery and finny babies to brighten my days and ease the pain. I've laughed with you, cried with you, and am totally nuts about you all. I bet when computers were invented it was never dreamed that people from all over the world could come to care so much for each other. I thank God for you all and ask him to bless you daily.

Tats/Sandra: I'll say it again hehe, your such a kind person and always take the time to say something nice to everyone

PCB: Always making neat sigs for everyone, always trying to help ppl out :)

Camcam/Amber: You always have such nice things to say!

Catnip: For being..er..interesting. hehe :p

I don't really talk to a lot/really anyone so I'm just going by what I read :)

So many people have made my life more bearable and joyous in this community! This is what the internet was made for!!!!!!! Thank you so much, Karen and Paul!

I think fondly of groups I've had fun with when I was online (which isn't as often as I'd like, sadly - so I often miss posting to delightful Cats, Dogs and Pets of the day :( )

I remember the eclectic group where I got to know the delightful Mugsy and her family of 22 (people count, right ;)?) from whence came the wonderful Doghouse!

I always have enjoyed you, Frostfrog - thank you so much for photgraphing my beloved Grasshopper with such sensitivity!

And the Christmas Card exchange last year - what a great Christmas I had with my *HUGE* card collection, from all over the world!

The fun adventures of the various PT Meetings - and wouldn't you know I had to miss the one here in CA!!!
:( :(


My compliments to all of you for being who you are, citizens of this wonderful PetTalkLand we share our love of animals in.

Each and every one of you play an important part in pet-talk and I feel very blessed to be part of this family.

Just wanted to stop by and say I appreciate every one on Pet-talk, and may this day be special, in our love for Jessica and rememberance of such a lovely young girl.

koneko_kokoro - For being my best friend since I was two years old! Always talking to me about things that I could never talk to about anyone else. Always admitting to what you feel, knowing not to be embarassed around me. Showing kindess, even in the horrible years...Ah, when we were 4...When I bashed your head into a post of nails...:rolleyes:

I could go on forever if I named names, so I'll just keep it short.

To all of you, we all share one common bond--our love for animals. Who knew it was a bond that would make us all a family, for that is what we all are.

I appreciate every single one of you on here for many reasons, advice, sharing stories, pictures, and even disagreements--all of our opinions is what makes us all interesting.

A big huge thank you to Karen and Paul for creating this site--I feel as though I have friends all over the world, and for this I am grateful.

07-27-2003, 04:02 PM
To Lovemyshiba: Thank you for telling me about this wonderful site.

To Anna_66: Thank you so much for all of your help when I first started and kept bugging you about the sigs!

And to everyone else here on Pet Talk...Thank you all so much for all the advice and for accepting each and everyone of us into this wonderful family. Although, I have never met you all personally..I feel like I have one big "cyber-Family" and Friends all over the world. You are always here to listen to us complain and also here to share in our joy with all of our posts.

A special thanks to Karen and Paul for starting such a wonderful site.:D

They are great friends, and I love to talk to them. They always have something to say, and stories to tell. Anyway, they are great people, just like everyone else on here.

I agree, there are so many wonderful people here that it would take forever to name them all, but each and every one of you make Pet Talk the wonderful place it is. We all are here for a common reason: the love of animals, and it's amazing that a forum such as this can unite so many people all over the world. Here are a few that come to mind, but the list doesn't stop here. Like Noahsmommy, I would be writing a long long list for each member, but I just wanted to recognize some very special members that come to mind...

Noahsmommy: my kindred sister:) Thanks for always being there for me and being one of my best friends! No doubt we'll be lifelong "sisters" :D Sergei misses you!

{{{PCB}}} You are so sweet :) I really admire your caring nature and your love of birds. You have opened my eyes to having birds as pets and their wonderful personalities! Thanks also for the great siggie! I just love it! I'm so sorry that your friend has departed, and we are all here for you too. Jessica will really be missed.

Sandra (tats) for always saying something kind for each and every pet of the day, and being the biggest blabbermouth ever! ;)

Aly, for being a guardian angel to all the animals she sees and takes care of in her shelter and at home; also for your advice every time I PM you! LOL :o

Gini for your fun-loving attitude and kindness to everyone you meet, also for being the "hostess with the mostess"! :D Oh, and also for Mr. Fish ;)

Pam, for being one of the first PTers to respond to my posts and PM me! ;) Also for being another "white cat" mom:D We are a special breed! LOL

Amberlee and KAK for your creative wit and caring nature

Karen and Paul for making it all possible! We couldn't have done this without you!

Jessica: for reminding each of us here how precious life is. Rest in peace dear

and to everyone else that makes Pet Talk the haven that it has been for me through the past couple of years. I have been here through some really sad and trying times and through happy and joyful times. Thank you all!
**hugs**
Karen

The passing of Jessica has reaffirmed in my mind what I've always known in my heart, that life is fleeting and unpredictable, sometimes sweet and often unbearably painful. Our friends, our pets, are gifts given to us by God to grace our lives with love, laughter and companionship. During her time with us on Pet Talk, Jessica, our friend, graced all of our lives with her kindness and compassion. And with her passing, she has given us all a very special gift..a bit of time to pause, reflect and to give thanks for the wonderful, caring, supportive circle of friends we have in our very special Pet Talk family. Thanks to you all for the countless times your love, support and generosity of spirit have given me hope, made me laugh, brightgened my day, and eased my pain. I treasure EACH and every one of you and for me, there are no finer friends on earth. There are many with whom I have developed a very deep and special bond over the past few years. To them, my heartfelt thanks for always being there for me. And of course, many thanks to Karen and Paul for making this all possible:)

As ususal Tatsxxx11, very well written. I have always, and still do, enjoy reading your posts. You have such a way with words, that bring tears, joy and most of all comfort to whoever reads them.

I myself have only been here, off and on, for a few years. I cannot single out any one person. I feel we are united as one.
I truely commend those who are devoted to rescuing these poor defenseless animals that have to try and fend for themselves.
I really treasure the love and care that each and everyone of you express for your furbabies.

Also to Karen and Paul, who make this place worthwhile to come and visit everyday.

I want to compliment all the furry, feathered, and other pets in our lives that have brought us all together. Without them we wouldn't be here, and our lives would be so much darker.

I don't really talk to people in PMs or on AIM or anything, so I am going by all the posts that I read here every single day.

EVERY single PTer has at least once made my day...every single one of you are special and caring. I love coming here every day and looking at all of the wonderful tight-knit friendships that I see everyone has formed with one another. Frienship has to be one of the best things ever! I can't imagine life without friends, and it is truly wonderful that Paul and Karen made a way for so many friendships to form.
I don't specifically have any favorite PTers because I love you all, but...hmm, a few specifically come to mind.
Kfamr-I agree with whoever said she spoke her mind. I really admire that, and it is something that I wish I was strong enough to do.

Tatsxxx11-You are so sweet and caring!!! You have a great heart, and are a wonderful writer, and I love reading your posts because everything comes from your heart and is always SO well-written!


Airedalekisses-I *think* i got it right! You're so nice and so caring!

Wolfsoul-You are very smart and very informative, and you always stick up for your friends no matter what, and I greatly admire that.




REMEMBER! EVERYONE here is wonderful! :)

Oh, and a special thanks to Jessica, for teaching so many of us how special life really is, and to not take it for granted because you may have it one instant, and in the next...:( We will miss you, and I am sorry I never got to know you. :(

Okay, well my computer is having problems and I think this is the only post I'll get through today, so I hope it sends. I figured if I had to post anything it would honor Jessica in some way.

First of all, there are just too many to post. Even if I don't mention someone here you are all very important to me. I can't even list all the compliments I would like to give. Thank you to all who mentionned me (even if it were two but I know you all just love me ;) )

Sandra - For always having the sweetest things to say in the nicest way possible. Always there to bring a smile to anyone's face.

Amber - For being a great PMing buddy and a really good friend.

Ashely - For being my fluffy sheltie butt friend and helping me do stupid things like download fonts and learn HTML (tutorials).

KayAnn - Even though I don't know you to well I know you are a great mommy to your pets and a great member. You stand up for what you believe in and I think are very mature for your age.

PCB - For always being there to give some extra advice on anything and helping out when needed. You are a great member and all your tributes to Jessica were just beautiful.

Emily - You know I just love seeing your pictures and hearing your stories about your crazy pups!

Julie - I love reading your posts and seeing pictures of your gorgeous pups!

Sara - For being such a sweet girl and PMing me when I needed some extra advice.

Jessica - For teaching and showing me so much about life. Your posts were always filled with so much kindness and love for animals. You will be greatly missed.

I know I didn't mention all I intended too but a special thanks to Karen and Paul for setting up this website. This place is like another family and I love it here. Thank you to everyone for putting up with me and always givng me some extra advice. You're all great! :D

Now let's hope this sends...*crosses fingers*

I want to thank all of you for being animal lovers and helping make the world a bit better for being so. I'm grateful for each and every one of you every day. It's so wonderful to have a group of friends that understands the special bond I have with my kiddos. :)

A special thanks to a couple of people:

Aly, for always being there when I need her. What a great person you are, always willing to help in anyway possible.

Cheshirekatt for your concern and excellent advice. Not to mention your wonderful sense of humor. :D

Parnone, I always enjoy reading your posts and I adore your furbabies.

I have not posted for a long time due to being so sick - but, what a better time could be as today. I felt so heartbroken after reading about Jessica's death.

This board has brought me much comfort since I joined - so many good people on here. A big thanks to Paul and Karen for starting this message board. I hope to met more people in the future. Thank you everybody.

Ok - Now I just don't know where to start.

Thank You all for saying anything about me in this thread.

I can't list anymore people, there's just going to be too many to list.

Hugs, Kisses, Slobber, Tail wags to ALL of you from Simba, Nala, and I. We love you all. :)

I don't know what I would do without Pet Talk.:cool:

Thanks Liana :)

I'm gonna go with you on this one, and hope the only reason I was mentioned once was because everyone knows they love me anyway ;). But it's Jessica's day, not mine, so here are the compliments regardless:

PCB for being so genuine and so sweet, and always taking the time to help me out with any project I may be working on. She always takes the time to respond to every birdy related subject out there, and never showers people with criticism, only advice in the sweetest way possible. I really value her prescence on this board and only hope she can heal from Jessica's passing with the same generosity and love for birds we know her for.

Liana (Primabella) for never laughing at me, when I make absurd suggestions through PM, and always taking me seriously. Also for mentioning me in this thread. ;) Can't get enough of those Mickey pictures, either!

Kfmar and Wolf Q, for basically the same reasons - you're both so honest, completely devoted to your dogs, and not afraid to say it how you think it. You also both always have such amazing signatures, and take some of my favourites pictures on the board, of the very gorgeous Nebo, Simba, and Nala.

NoahsMommy for taking the time to make me feel special...you know what I mean, and you were the special one for doing it. That made me very happy.

Cataholic, because I love to see pictures of Binx, and your sense of humour always cracks me up. I know we don't know each other that well, and don't really have the same opinion on some things, but I do enjoy reading your posts. :)
This list is to be completed...

Amy, Wolf_q - I'm so glad we had finally met. It was so awkward how we did meet. All of the sudden, dad and I walk out of the room to get things from the truck and bamm. There's you, Melissa and Nebo standing in the hall. We both froze. I crack up everytime i think of it. :p

I had lots of fun with you in the parking lot, even when Nala decided the black top was the best place to do her horse impression. :o I know, I know, I didn't talk much at all. I still loved spending time with you, Melissa, and Nebo.

Again, I am really glad I got to meet you in person. You're such a wonderful young lady and you have lots of talent. The cover you did for the "Guestbook" at the BarkPark was amazing, even though you had short supplies.

One day I hope to come visit you in Utah as well as you visit me in Florida.... One Day... one day.......;)



Oh yes... and a ShoutOut to Teh late nii!!ght PeTtalker AIM chat Krew cuz we R da KeWli333eeezz!!!!!!!!111

Awww *blush* thanks KayAnn. :) I had a very wonderful time with you also. I can still picture your face when you walked out of the motel room and saw us there. LOL I know I didn't talk much either, but it was great meeting you. :) Melissa thought you were very nice, and she kept saying how much she thought we were alike. :D I wish we lived closer! (I think Nebo and Nala would like that too!) I've gotta get you to Utah next summer! I'd love to visit Florida too!

Now I don't think the little cartoon on the guestbook looked all that wonderful, but thanks for the compliment! :D

Oh my, there's SO many people to mention.....I don't want to miss anyone......Ok, I'll come back later and add them all...too tired tonight!

I thought about not naming any people because I truly do love everyone here, but I have been fortunate to know some better than others. I hope to be able to get to know many more of you here on a more personal basis. The loss of dear Jessica has reminded me to take nothing for granted.

*Johanna (ScantyNebula)* You're so sweet and a wonderful furmom. Thank you so much for adopting Lily and giving her a great home. If only I could send ALL of my foster kittens to you, I'd be a happy camper!

*Karen (Wolflady), Kelly (Noahsmommy)* I love talking to you both. You have hearts of gold and we are all three way too similar :D Keep those pm's coming, Karen!

*Naomi* Thanks for being there as a friend and comfort. We will get not let our disease get us!

*micki* I have to meet you someday. Your pups are the cutest and you're always fighting to save a homeless soul. We live too close so we have no excuse not to meet :)

*LNCC (late night chat crew)* I love you all. You're all hilarious and keep me smiling.

*kimlovescats* Thanks for your devotion to your kitties and all the rescue work you've done. You have the perfect kitty home and are a wonderful mom. I'm so glad you're keeping little Casper (Skylar's long lost brother) so we can watch the two of them grow :)

*Emily (lovemyshiba)* You have always been so nice and you just crack me up when you join the chats. You ask about Peka, and that means SO much to me!

*AntiPam* You've always been just so sweet. Even though I don't get to talk to you a lot, I think you're sweeter than pie!

*Sandra, Rachel, Pam* Some of the first people I talked to here on PT. You guys made me feel very welcomed when I joined :)

JUST ONE?!?! Oh no! I would feel mighty guilty if I just mentioned one and left the rest of my very special friends out! I'll go against the rules and name several.

Jessica12345, for being such a sweet girl and a wonderful bird loving friend, and for always sending me PM's that make me smile. PT could never be the same without you and your Tiki and pups.

FloppsyLadySally, because she's such a sweet young girl and I always knew that, right from the start.

Logan, for being such a kind and softhearted person who has always been nice to me since the day I joined the board.

Zanzanfergie, for being a very sweet girl who always manages to put a smile on my face.

Captain, because no matter how much I bother her with begging for pics of her pink feathered kid, she never gets mad at me. :p

Lut, for being my one and only best Belgian buddy!

NoahsMommy, for being so open minded, kind, and softhearted.

Sara luvs her Tinky for being a wonderful and jolly friend. There are not many people like you.

Cataholic, for being the funniest and most entertaining PT'er. What would we do without you Hoola Holic?

Wolf_Q, Slliepnir, and Primabella, first for being such wonderful girls, and 2nd for being the ones who taught me so much about PhotoShop.

Rottielover for being such a sweet and happy young girl!

Soledad, for always being courageous, and for going through so much trouble to bring your precious Boo with you from New Zealand. Really shows your love and devotion for your kitty cat.

I KNOW I'm missing some out, but that's all I could think of right now. I'll be back when I remember more!

Cookiebaker, for being one very nice and kind person, and one who was one of my first favorites on PT.

Anna66 for being super nice and for doing a great job on quitting smoking. (How's that going btw?)

Wolflady, I don't know HOW I forgot to list you in the first list, because you were in my mind the whole time I was writing it , but thank you for always being such a nice person. I don't think there are many people as nice as you these days.

Iceyshiver for being a wonderful girl and very bright and intelligent.

Pam, for recently cheering me up when I was feeling down, with your kind PMs. They really meant a lot to me.




And I must add Cami's mommy, GRL, and Foam as my newest favorites here. Very sweet young girls, all of you.

Here's Jessica's words from that thread. Here come the tears again. :(

Amy(wolf_q), Kayann(Kfamr), Liana(primabella), PCB, Ashley(binka_nugget), Jordan (wolfsoul). You are wonderful people, and great friends.


Also CJ(Foam) is a wonderful person, great to talk to and to share stories with.

Amanda(ChloeLove), you are a great person, freind and mommy to your kids. I love talking to you, and sharing stories about piggies and how much Dexter and Rolo are alike;)

Ok, now it's my turn. (applause.....)

I'd like to thank the academy, my parents, God....(oh sorry, wrong speech :) )

First compliment is for the website for MEOW Foundation because they had a link to CatoftheDay which led me to Pet Talk last December.

Second compliment is of course to Karen/Paul for creating such a caring and supportive forum.

Last compliment is for everyone on PT, young and old alike. You all mean a very great deal to me and I care about each and every one of you and your pets. There's no way I could list just a few of you. Together we've laughed, cried and hugged our way through cyberspace and I do love you all!! If I had just one wish, I would wish that everyone remains healthy, for without good health you have nothing.

I'd like to also compliment Popcornbird who is maturing into such a wonderful, articulate, compassionate young woman right before our eyes.

PCB - we know you were very close to Jess - and you are being such a wonderful friend to her even now. You've shared your religion with us during these stressful, war-torn times when muslim-bashing has been too easy of a pass-time for too many people.

And a compliment to all PT people. Whether this is your first or 5000th+ post. I've never joined other boards, and this one has now probably spoiled me for life.

I Love Brian, Forever <3
07-28-2003, 03:11 PM
I want to thank EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU for tolerating me at times and being so nice to me after I have acted so immaturely. All of you are very understanding and extremely nice. You guys make Pet Talk a great place.

I wasn't able to come here yesterday but I still wanted to get a chance to say something. I found out about this site a few years ago by accident. I had nominated my dog Duke quite a few months earlier and had forgotten about it until I got an email from Karen saying Duke would be our DOTD the next day. It was that next day that I found out what great people are here and that's when I became a member. I come by every day now and really enjoy it.

Hey Dayna! Sorry I didn't mention you! :o My mind was like not on the right track! :o So. . .

I compliment Dayna because I really like talking to her about the guinea pigs we have! And isn't it funny how much Dex and Rolo are alike? :D You're so nice and cheerful, and you always have such great advice to share with everyone! You're an awesome mommy to your fur-kids, and I really enjoy talking with you! :)
