Thread: Who Inspired You..

Hybrid View

  1. #1
    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!

    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.

    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.

    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.)

    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.
    Furangels only lent.
