    How'd You Get To Pet Talk???

    How did everyone find out/get to Pet Talk?? I just thought it would be interesting to know! I found out because my friend told me that every day they feature a different pet on this site so I went. Then I entered Floppsy in and when he won I saw at the bottom "Talk About Today's Pet in Pet Talk!" and so I went to see what people were saying about Floppsy and a few days later I joined. My first post was a compliment to Steinway (POTD).

    I saw at the bottom "Talk About Today's Pet in Pet Talk!"
    That's how I found PT, too! I was looking at a COTD, and I decided to see what PT was

    It wasn't at the bottom, way back when, when I joined. Just, all of the sudden, there was a Pet Talk tab, and I checked it out. I think I was one of the first members, but not THE first. Am I correct that Freckles (Joan) was the first offical member, other than Karen and Paul???

    I do know that Sandra, Pam, Rachel, Karen, Carrie and Jackie followed close behind. Whew!!! I'm glad about that!!! I have 6 of my very best friends coming from Pet Talk now!!!

    I think I did a search on a engine for "pictures of dogs" and I found Pet Talk. I only looked at the Pics for a while, then I ventured into here. And I havn't left since LOL

    That's how it was when I came too. I was sent the link for Cat of the Day from my brother-in-law who stumbled on it accidentally one day. He never returned and I never left! LOL!

    I don't remember how I got here...and no, it isn't early senility. COTD has been bookmarked on my favorites forever..one day, not too many months ago, I snuck in, looked around, and here I am!

    A loooong time ago Rachel/Countrywolf07 told me about the Dog of the Day website. I bookmarked it, looked at a few times. I'm not sure when exactly I chose to click on the Pet Talk button.....and I'm not sure how Rachel found DOTD......but I'm glad she did. And I had to convince her to join Pet Talk lol.

    About a year ago, I did a search on yahoo for cockatiel pics. It so happened, that that day's POTD happened to be a cockatiel! It turned out on the search and I clicked on it, and was pleased to find a great pet site. Every day after that I would return to see the new pet. I did this for several months, until I began to wonder what this Pet Talk tab on the left was all about. I clicked on it and enjoyed reading everyone's comments on the POTD. I returned everyday to see what people were saying about the pets, and a day came when there was just the cutest pet bird, that I myself, HAD to comment on. So to comment on that bird, I became a member. I never left.

    I found COTD on a search engine. I looked at that EVERY day for a while. I ventured into Pet talk one day and saw I needed to register. Ok, here comes the part that shows how naive I am, I did not know if I should or not. So I continued on looking at the COTD and when I felt the NEED to comment on a POTD, I decided to GO FOR IT and register. Well, the most addicting thing I ever did in my born days!!

    I found dogoftheday.com way back around 1998. But we had the slowest computer ever, and an even slower connection. So I hardly ever connected to the internet, but when I did that was the first thing I checked out. Last summer, we updated to a new computer/cable connection and since then I checked dog/cat/pet everyday. After Azure was petoftheday, I clued in that there was a talk section and read everybody's WONDERFUL comments about him. A few weeks later I joined, and here I am still blabbering...

    I did a search for cats and found COTD. I actually have been checking COTD out for a long time now (at least a year). There was one abyssinian last month though, that I just had to comment on and that's when I became a member.

    In my case I had been lurking on a different site (for around 2 years). I did not like the way the people on this site were always arguing.(sp) I found Pet Talk just surfing around. I lurked for maybe one day before I joined.
