Who Inspired You..

[Suki Wingy]

No one! The only pet I got since joining PT was Oslo and it was set up before. I WANT a betta or 2 or 6 but my parents say otherwise. I also want a skunk but they're illegal in Illinois (but not the surrounding states!) but no one on PT has a skunk.

I hope you have a big tank for an angelfish Chilli.

Don't worry. We don't have the tank yet, but we will get one and set it up completely before we get the angelfish. I've been doing research on Angelfish for a few months now!

I had Snowy and RB Taffy before joining PT.

Buttons - I had always loved birds, especially cockatiels. I'd see PCB's tiels and Logan's and just think "I want one of my own!" After a lot of PT help and information, I finally got Buttons! I'm not sure if I was really inspired, but more of 'pushed' in the direction of being a bird owner.

karen has really helped me out but sincei have joined someone was talkin about snakes and i got a ball python and his name is wizard

[Tollers-n-Dobes]

Nobody really inspired me to get any of my pets. I'd already had dogs and one betta (I now have 3, but that has nothing to do with PT) before I joined.


I do have to admit though, Labs were never really a breed I'd ever consider having and thanks to .Sarah's three, Riley, Malone, Emerson etc. I actually love the breed and hope to have one someday.

There was a thread about hamsters that *sort of* inspired me to get Hazel....well, more like it opened my mind to the possibility of hammies making great pets and then I fell in love with her...

Maltese_Love and Sassy have made me view Maltese (haven't had one in a long while, too long to remember) in a way that makes me ITCH for one.

but no one on PT has a skunk.

hey i want a skunk too!!! so cute, i almost got one from a vet friend but i cant remember for what reason i couldnt at that time.........

adn as for the question no one inspired me to get my dogs i´ve always loved Huskies and just as Amy said i´m also a Wolf/Husky all time lover, but...........when after joining PT i started looking at bettas in a direffent way, i´d seen them before but didnt paid attention and after seeing Ashley´s, Devon´s, Erika´s bettas something happened.......and suddenly i saw Ashley´s Opaque Angel and that was it!! i went for one.......needless to say i ended with a bunch of them

so that is my pet adquisition inspired by other PTers

i must say i´love all animals and have had most of them at one place in time, but i´m making my mind on a bunny (i´ve had way before PT, but there are such cuties around)

I had just lost my beautiful boy Sooti when i first joined PT but i had my old guy Ash, since then I adopted Lexie.

However i think being here made me take the stand i did with my neighbours kitties and get them spayed and now i have got them in my care for now at least, so i really do put a lot of that down to being here on PT, seeing the wonderful rescues that go on,and the care and devotion and how giving people are of themselves, so i did not just bury my head in the sand and was pro-active if that is the right word to use, and did something to help Duchess and Vicky and Zara and their babies, I have not regretted my decision once, all ten kittens have now been adopted, their life would have been as ferals, and we all know how awful that can be.

I guess the inspiration came from all of the great people here , especially the rescuers who I greatly admire, far too many to list but you all know who you are, and of course never forgetting Lisa Kuhio who made it all possible for me.

PT hasn't inspired me to get any of my pets. However I've fallen in love with Kimmy's crested geckos, I wouldn't mind having one someday.
