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" 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

Gini for your fun-loving attitude and kindness to everyone you meet, also for being the "hostess with the mostess"! 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 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!
