Pet Thread? Yes Or No?

[Calico]

I totally agree with the no solicitation policy of Thai Visa Forum. I have better things to do with my time than read ads. Don't we all? Plus, in forums where ads are allowed, everybody who's got something to sell posts ads that nobody reads because they're too busy posting their own ads, and the non-ads get buried in all that rubbish.

However, what about pets? Wouldn't it be cool if we had a place where we could list some pets we'd like adopted, or pets we'd like to adopt, or other such non-money-making pet stuff? (Puppy mills and kitten mills are abominations, and I don't want to hear about anybody's pet store because I can find them all by myself.)

So here's what I'm thinking. If Thai Visa forum created a single page, perhaps in the mold of its Free Classifieds section and its Commercial Ads section, solely for Pet Stuff, that would be a very useful thing. Users could visit it, or not, as they see fit. This is by far the most popular Internet forum for Thailand's English-speaking community, and far more interactive and immediate than a magazine or newspaper. It'd be pretty cool if pet-lovers could post stuff and know that it'd be seen by a whole lot of people.

Thai Visa Forum serves many purposes for many people, but the bottom line is that it's an asset for many reasons. A Pet Stuff page would be yet one more way for Thai Visa Forum to be a useful asset to the English-speaking community here in Thailand.

What do you think?

People are often more likely (and able to) support such ventures when they are local.

The regular crowd who read the Pets section cannot support all the ventures around Thailand.

However, when other people read of something they can assist with in their own neighbourhood (i.e. via the "district" subforums), they often will.

How many people have never noticed the Pets forum, I wonder ?

Actually, since I finally heard about the Pet Forum, I've asked my pet question at http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/Cat-Sanctuar...ao-t206599.html Yep, you can teach this old dog new tricks...
