I will always get my future pets from shelters. <3

Thamk you! Aw, good for you! Even though that dog was from a breeder, it still didn't have a home, so that is still a very good deed! Good for you! The world needs more people like you! Thanks for posting! I really appreciate it!

Aw, thanks - That is one of the nicest things anyone has ever posted to me. It really made my day when I read this. Thank you, that means a lot. I hope they are too! It is people like you that make Ganz want to do this! I really can't think of a better word to display my appreciation, but . . . thanks.

I love this idea, and I would definetly buy more than one. Except, why inlude this to just cats and dogs. I know that they're the most common, but what about everyone else? The horses, cows, sheep, pigs, hamsters, birds, snakes, lizards, turtles, tortises that spend their time cooped up in a shelter, maybe even longer than the average dog or cat, because they're not average. I love this idea of shelter pet Webkinz, but I would be extremely dissapointed in Ganz if they only made ones that were and supported cats and dogs. I would think that just supporting cats and dogs would be a little closed minded of Ganz, I mean, they came up with a Puffy Lipped Fish and they couldn't think of supporting more than cats and dogs! I have nothing against cats and dogs, I'm all for giving every shelter pet a fabulous home, it's just that not every shelter pet is a dog or cat. Thank you for bringing up this great idea! I'd be happy to support the USPCA in my purchases. I makes me happy just thinking of the cat, dog, horse, or whatever I would be helping out.

Wow, first of all - Thanks for such a well-thought-out post! In no way am I saying that this should only include dogs and cats. I just gave that example because most people can relate to cats and dogs more than sheep, etc. There is more of a chance that they have a cat or dog, so this idea hits them close to home. Also, I think shelter cats and dogs would be the best starter for this idea. But yes, if this works, I totally want to see more than dogs and cats, and the list you gave me would be great for Ganz. You are very welcome. Thanks for posting your thoughts!

Aw, thanks! Good for you! Boe is a cute name! I hope Ganz is reading this too. Thanks for posting!

I am so happy that you would love to buy one! Aw, thanks so much! That means a lot, people like you help spread the word! Thanks for posting!

Someone did recommend doing this so everyone who wishes to, can easily let Ganz know that we want ShelterPetz.
{ & it's an excellent idea ! }


I have a rough draft of one, if no one else has done it.

PM me if you would like a copy.

IndyandLucky, if you would like me to post it on here, PM me for a copy & your permission.


Best of Luck !

Hi,
Yes, the thought has occurred to me. I will look further into this, and let you know when I make my decision. Thanks for all the hard work relating to this cause!

Haha! That is a good idea! Me too!

Thank you! That really means a lot! I totally understand - allergies can really make it difficult to have a pet in a home. Yes, there are very few non allergenic pets out there, especially in states with limited shelters. Good for you! Thanks for posting!

I think this an awesome idea.all my animals were saved either from the streets on thier way to the shelter or from a shelter. just about all of my friends are ww members so i'll get everybody i can to suggest this to ganz,and maybe,just maybe, this idea can be a reeality.

[RexfordButchBD]

Wow, this is awesome!
Great thread <3

[WebkinzBatRulz]

Oh! I know! We like buy the special pet and stuff and like I know we could like have a special area on Webkinz for that like the Caring Valley only with animal associated!

and you can win a prize each time you get a pet with the special tag like the Caring Valley

[peggios]

I just thought I would share the pictures of my three precious pets that I adopted from the shelter!!! White Jack Russell Terrier-Poppi, black and white Jack Russell Terrier-Tessi, Kitty-Pollianna
