As Dr. Larry's daughter continues her search for a new puppy, I have to share some fun new pet sites I've discovered. As one would expect, pets online are a big deal these days, what with Dogtime and the Alltop pet channel, and numerous other pet communities, including the fun ones at Purina.

As I build my connections via Twitter, I get the pleasure of meeting a whole lot of new pet owners and pet bloggers, and I really can't help myself from sharing. Over at the Shine pet blog, I wrote a post about cat massage - and it comes complete with video. Who knew you could -- or should -- massage your pets, rather than merely pet them?

I also like visiting Pawfun, cause the crew over there finds all sorts of interesting and fun videos and facts one never knew. Then there's Pets are talking with Bridget Pilloud, who is an intuitive animal communicator. That's pretty fascinating to me. She listens to dogs and cats - and teaches pet parents how to communicate intuitively, also. I wonder what Bella, my daughter's cat, is thinking in this picture of her on the family bed. It's likely an invitation to have her belly rubbed...which brings us back to cat massage.

I know there are a lot of links in this post, but they're all good pet sites. Hop over and visit'em today. You'll be glad you did!
