Before coming to Pet Talk I was up to date on my e-mails with family and friends. Since finding this wonderful site with all of its caring people who have the same passion for animals that I have, I find myself responding to PMs and e-mails from other Pet Talkers much sooner than I do to family and friends, not to mention trying to keep us with all of the threads. In fact I often get mail saying "where have you been?" I don't even bother to explain because they just wouldn't understand.

The love that we have for our pets led to our joining this site, but the absolutely fantastic people who visit this board are what has kept us all here. I can't imagine another place on the internet with such loving compassionate people. I'd like to thank Karen and Paul of course for creating this site, but also each and every one here for making up the essence of Pet Talk.
