    How did you discover Pet Talk?

    I was just wondering how everyone here found this wonderful site to talk about our beloved pets...Cats, Dogs or Others I personally found out about this site after a friend sent me a link to the Pet-Of -The-Day page a good while back, and I looked everyday day to see each beautiful pet(Cat,Dog or Other) that was featured for that day. One day I scanned down and saw the link for "Talk About Today's Pet in "Pet Talk" clicked on it, lurked for about a week , then signed up to be a member and have become to really enjoy this site as I visit numerous times daily OK...Lets hear all your stories too
    Nothing says love like a kitty purring in you ear

    I adopted Pouncer from Jenluckenbach (she was his foster mommy!) and I updated her when he was 7 months old. She mentioned the forum, I checked it out, and here I am two years later!

    I have occasionally in the past two years tried to convince her she wants her "favorite foster" back, but she refuses to take him, claiming I made him nawtee!!!!

    Ummmmmmm eventhough it was only a few months ago for me, I can't really remember!!! I remember wanting to find some dog forums to join and found a few others... I've known about pet of the day for awhile but I can't remember if I found the link to PT FROM the main site, or if I found it by a search on google! LOL

    EDIT: WOW funny, all three of us joined in September in different years!

    I found Cat of the Day after searching for cat photos through Google, but I didn't look at Pet Talk until about 2/3 years later when my Mum's cat was Cat of the Day (18 January 2003 ). I was tickled pink at all the lovely comments from across the world!

    I had searched the web for a long, long time, looking for just the right forum. I stumbled across this one and just lurked for a few years. I enjoyed it so much and it had everything I was looking for and the people were nice to each other so I joined... Been a member about a year I think. It just "fits" and "feels" right...

    I would look at Pet of the Day EVERY day for about a month. I never even noticed the little Pet Talk button! One day I was extremely bored and I was just clicking on everything and was transported here! I joined immediately and started posting away, little did I know how addicted I would become

    I clicked on it, and BINGO!!!! The rest is history

    btw, this is the home-site of my nephew Mario! You all saw the pics of his new cat Figaro! Please, feel free to look at all the pages, he will be thrilled if someone from overseas signs his guestbook(= "gastenboek" in Dutch!! )Oops, it is all in Dutch,but just click , and find the answer

    I was checking out COTD every day before PT was even around. Then one day when I was checking the COTD, I noticed the link on the bottom of the page - the rest is history.

    I was looking to post about a behavior problem I was having with Maggy. I did a google search on dog forums and behavior and it brought me here. I posted about the problem I was having and haven't left. That was almost a year ago.

    She still has the problem, though.

    It was well before Google, so I think I did a Yahoo Search or something. I was all over the internet searching for sites and message boards about dogs a few months after I got Kia.
