I got into virtual pets when I was about 8 years old, and I was hooked right away. Something about the gameplay just clicked with me. From there, I found my way to online pet sites like Neopets and Subeta, and I loved the sense of responsibility that came with taking care of my pets. It just felt rewarding.



How about you? What got you into virtual pets?
 
I seen someone playing Neopets in computer class. Yes I'm that old. It wasn't longer after that I discovered VPL!
 
I discovered Neopets through a friend in high school. We spent hours creating accounts, and adopting pets. From there, I went into other virtual pet sites like Marapets and Subeta.
 
How did you get started with pet games? What was the first virtual pet site you joined? Did a friend tell you about it?

I'm old, and I seen a friend playing Neopets in computer class when I was at school, that's how I got started. How about you?
 
It have been a very long time since I started playing pet sites video games and also the ones on smartphone apps. It was a friend who introduced me to pet site games when he found out I love pets so much in real life.
 
It's either you researched with mum's phone about games and the ones kids our age can play then or some friends will tell you about one you need to know. That's how I started playing virtual pet games.
 
I can remember very well that I started getting into virtual pet games through online communities and forums like this. I get more interested when people shared their favorite pet sites.
 
I had a friend that always played the pet games on his PC and it always seemed boring to me. Never even looked at it. Visited him one day and the pet game was running on screen while he was in the bathroom. Casually got to play it while waiting for him. I got drawn in because I actually found the game interesting as I played.
