Pets

The Pets category contains websites with information about the creatures that live with us as companion animals.

The sites listed in Recreation/Pets are primarily informational in nature.

The first sub-area of Pets consists of categories that are species specific. Listed within each species category are sites dealing with species-specific breed information, clubs, forums, general and personal interest pages.

The second sub-area of Pets consists of categories, which address the relationship that pets in general have with us. Websites within this area are not species specific and usually address more than one species of pet.
Resources is a general pet interest subcategory.

The third sub-area of Pets is for Chats and Forums that discuss pet concerns and species-specific Organizations devoted to pets.

This category is for sites in English or with substantial English content.

Some sites involving pets are not listed in Recreation/Pets but are listed in other areas of the directory:

For example:
Shopping/Pets - Online stores and other sites focusing on online sales
Business/Consumer_Goods_and_Services/Pet_Supplies - Manufacturers and distributors of products for pets
Regional/(country)/(locality) - Individual animal organizations, veterinary practices, boarding facilities, local businesses
Health/Animal/Pets - Sites dealing with diseases, conditions and treatments
Health/Animal/Veterinary_Medicine/Veterinarians - Individual veterinary practices within the appropriate locality

Check the "See also:" listings for other areas of the Directory, which list sites addressing other aspects of pet concerns.
