Happy Birthday, Pet Talk, and thank you Karen and Paul for this wonderful idea you had for such a great community.

I've met so many people and friends here that I never would have otherwise. I have laughed, I have cried, and I've gotten frustrated at times, but I stay because of all the great people. I've met many pets and learned so much about the health and welfare of all animals everywhere, and probably wouldn't have if it hadn't been for Pet Talk. I've traveled around the world in the pictures of different countries and events that members have been so kind to share, and seen places here in the states that I would never have thought to be so beautiful.

So yes - this site is a whole world within the big world that we live in. And what a nice place it is, too...
