I was just wondering how you guys found out about petoftheday or pet talk. For me, I was just messing around on the computer and I saw this website and totally fell in love with it!!:p How did you find out about pet talk or petoftheday?

I was off of work because I was about to have my shoulder surgury. I was so freaking bored and I bumped into the POTD pics. I was looking at all the different DOTD's. I would follow that for a while, and then I eventually realized there was a whole site attached to that.

My friend Autumn who knows I'm a big animal lover told me about it. I'm not sure how she found out about it, though. She is actually on the board sometimes, I forgot her user name but her hamster Diego Joe won POTD. ;)

I found it through iWon as they post a POTD on their boards. As I love cats I just followed the links to POTD and the rest is history! And I no longer go to adware and spyware loading iWon anymore. That site really messed up my PC!

I met Liana and Ashley on another forum, and they told me about PT... I had joined months earlier but I never got around to posting anything, so I decided it was about time to start posting.. and I've been addicted ever since! >.<

I was looking for pictures of Tollers in google images and found a picture of a beautiful one and clicked on it to make it bigger and I found DOTD and Pet talk:D

Here's the girl that brought me to PT, she was DOTD on September 24,1999:D

My daughter, Missy (sirrahsim) told me about it:D It was the Cat of the Day she told me about. Then, I found the forum and starting posting and she discovered it at about the same time and we both started posting around summer of 2003.

my mom found out about it when i was like, 8, and I was checking POTD every day; it was a while before i found out about PT. I signed up as "merlins_mom" i think... but I never posted, then I signed up as flamepony12 on PT and now I go on every day! :D

I was browsing bunny pics on Google when I came across this DARLING little bun-bun...

Then I took a visit to the site... and almost daily had to look to see who was POTD, COTD and DOTD. :) Then when my RB kitty Perkins was nominated as COTD in March 2004, I joined PT!

Once upon a time, Paul and I were talking about what kind of website we would enjoy creating that others might want to visit every day. So in my case, I didn't "find out about," I was part of creating it! (A teeny, weeny part, Paul did - and still does - all the hard work.)

I found this guy one day after doing a search for 'siamese' or something along those lines, didn't find out about Pet Talk though until a couple of months ago.
POTD was a site that intrigued me, although I haven't submitted pics of my zoo for consideration, YET!

This is Tao, who looks very much like Masar - they even shared the same identification barrel (Masar has an engraved tag now though).

I bought a book about cat websites! And then I checked them out and found COTD. I started every day with COTD and then I submitted Filou. He was COTD in August 2002. When I noticed I had to check his thread about 100 times in that day I thought it would only be fair to post for others' pets as well.:)

And here I am:D
