Who Inspired You..

[flamepony12]

To get the pets you've gotten since you've joined PT? (for those of you it applies to)

Mackenzie, Muffin, Zeus, Merlin, & Freckles: Had them all before I joined.

Baybi: Pops. I fell in love with her birds right away and knew I'd own a cockatiel sometime in the near future. xD

The Bettas: I think the three main people that have given my betta hobby a kick start are Kara, Erica & Ashley. Before I started to get to know them, I only had Harold. Now I have four, with two more coming on Teusday. >.< heh. However, I'm glad they got me hooked! ^_____^

[Buddy Blaze Lover]

I had Blaze and Domino before I joined, and then all the wonderful betta owners convinced me to get my butterfly betta, Fizz!

[binka_nugget]

I always knew I wanted more dogs but PT made me aware of the number of homeless dogs in shelters.. so we ended up adopting rather than getting another pup from a breeder.

I fell in love with PCB's birdies. I more I saw her birdies, the more I wanted a birdy of my own. Wanting one bird, turned into getting five LOL.

[Chilli]

I had Frisk, Melani, Ethan, and Khaith before I joined.

Marley: No one inspired me, no one really talks about hamsters on PT if they own them.

Norri: I always enjoyed seeing Star (Maltese_Love's Budgie), but she's not the complete reason why I got Norri.

Otto & Ventriloquist: No one in particular, though Miss Z's Tia has always sounded like such a loving little girl and had made me want some rats even more.

The Bettas: Every betta owner that talked about their bettas. Some inparticular, but I won't point any fingers. Eventhough it is all you guys' fault that I have four bettas now.

Basically the only people that fully inspired me were the betta owners. After my first three fish died, I had told myself that I wasn't getting any more fish. And look at me now! Four bettas and plans to get an Angelfish in a few months!

Hmm lol I was going to make a thread like this

But umm hmm lets see
I had Roxy,Thunder,and Rockee when I joined
noone inspired me but I then got Ted and my sister got Baby but he has like nothing rreally to do with PT lol and umm I'm same as Chilli just the betta people curse you evil betta owners look what youve done to us were begging and pleading to our parents to let us have more and more bettas!!!LOL

[Kfamr]

I don't think anyone's every inspired me to get an animal. Adopting my three dogs were a decision myself and my family made.

[Giselle]

I don't think anyone's every inspired me to get an animal. Adopting my three dogs were a decision myself and my family made.

I kind of have to agree. Nobody convinced me more than Giselle herself to make me adopt her. Of course, I adopted her a few weeks before joining PT so I guess she doesn't count. I did purchase another budgie, but I've been owned by budgies long before joining any forum

Orangutango's Winston reawakened my deep hunger for a Dobe, I do have to admit.

[Alysser]

I didn't get Star or Sassy while on PT. Already had them. No one inspired me to get the fish though. I got them because my dad felt bad that Petco was abusing them.

[~Ginny~]

My cousin (her hamster is a darling!) My best friend (Her goldie is the sweetest ever!) My other cousin (her bunny is just adorbil!)

[wolf_Q]

I had Reggie and Smokey when I joined PT

I've been crazy about siberian huskies waaaaaaaaay before PT, I think I was born with a wolf/husky obsession. But the gorgeous huskies on PT made me want one even more of course. It was a decision made on my own, I don't think PT "inspired" me to get him. Best decision I ever made of course.

Sydney coming to live here had nothing to do with PT, no inspiration there. I only fully blame PT for the betta, Atticus. I had fish years ago and vowed to never get one again. I'm glad I have him now though and I'll probably continue to have bettas (though the thought of getting another right now is tempting, I don't have room for another tank.)

[dab_20]

I got my RB hedgie boy, Spike, because of Steph. (jesse_3) She gave me lots of info and help when I first got him.

[IRescue452]

I hope you have a big tank for an angelfish Chilli.
I got a betta to jump in the bandwagon with PT. Then I discovered the joys of female bettas and probably won't have another male until I've got time and space for breeding, which will be done to produce bigger quantities of females. I've always had comets and always will. I have platies because I wanted to dabble in the arts of tropicals after joining an aquarium society. I was inspired to look at giant millipedes because of this board.

[lute]

i don't think anyone inspired me to get any of my animals. although because of PT i never would have started Pike County Pets(rescue). Mugsy helped me realize that i CAN help with rescue dogs even though i'm only 17.

[k9krazee]

Hmm...I had all of the dogs already...and the guinea pigs...and the gecko...and my RB cat ...

I think the only animals that I have gotten after joining PT are the cats. And I really wasn't inspiried

[Roxyluvsme13]

Haha..Rox, Skye, Rufus before PT, then..there was Tink. Nobody really inspired me for her, or Lily either..
The bettas-All the pretty bettas! Especially Ashley's Opaques, and Kale and Akela..I blame it on you all!!!
