Hello guest, I'm crocidilehunter53 a speckled Acara, but you can call me crocadee. I am 69815 hours old and now live life to the full.

I was kindly adopted from the pound on Friday October 31st 2003. Most pets get a fright from tricks on Halloween, me I got the best treat any pet could ever wish for. Which I think has to be the best day of my life so far.

Notdmoma says I must have been very traumatised when I was in the pound, because I can't remember a thing from my past. There wasn't even any clues as to where I had come from here on this page. It had been wiped clean apart from a short message saying

'I'm my Mom's fav pet! I think'.

I don't remember any of this, but notdmoma says not to worry about it, my memory will come back when I'm ready.

I'm now looking forward to the future rather than dwelling on the past. Being adopted as I said before was the best day of my life by far. It was almost magical, one moment I was sad, lonely, starving and wondering when it would ever end. Then in a flash, like a click of a finger, I was whisked away from the pound. Given a nice new home with plenty of food to eat until I was bloated. Hallowen will always be a special day of celebrations for me from now on.

This is a snapshot notdmoma took of me and my adoptive sister baba_b7 on my first day in my new home. Even though I'm 638 days older than baba it hasn't made any difference. We get a long great and do all the same things real sisters do. Like share toys and play games together. We even share our grooming brushes & accessories.
These are my new cousins, what a bunch. Actually they are great fun and we all get along fine. I also have lots of friends at the guild, we do allsorts of things there. The best part is when all my family and friends meet up, wow what a party.
To make me feel at home notdmoma made sure I had a pet of my own. We talked about getting a spooky petpet to reflect that I was adopted on Halloween. This seemed a good idea at first, but that night I had bad dreams about it. Notdmoma said that it might be too traumatic for me to have a spooky pet after all. So we had another think. We discussed the need for me to have a petpet that gave me happy thoughts.

pip the Christmas Harris
Then baba suggested Christmas, what better thoughts could you have than about Christmas. So that was it, the three of us went to find me a Christmas petpet. It didn't take a second to spot which Christmas petpet was for me. There he was in the corner of the petpet pet shop, the cutes little harris you ever did see. I called him pip, because he's a little pipsqueak, and I love him. We have lots of fun together.

This is my adoption papers of which I am very proud. Notdmoma said that its good that I am proud of it and of who I am. She also said that it's a brilliant start that I have a good outlook on the future too.

From now on I am going to keep a diary of special events in my life on this page. I may have happy times and sometimes sad, but the memories all make up who I am.

5th November 2003

Good news, notdmoma decided to foster a new pet. His name, roonne46862 the Skeith.

Baba and I weren't expecting a new addition to the family quite so soon. But notdmoma explained, that since she adopted me and discovered the problems I have had she thought she may be able to help others too. She also said that as we were such loving girls and understood how other pets must feel that we would be a good influence on them.

As notdmoma is only fostering roonne he will only be staying with us for a short time. But never the less that did not mean notdmoma was not going to treat him any less than baba and myself. The first thing was to make him feel at home, feed him and give him a pet to teach him a little responsibility. Well that's what notdmoma said. She gave him a walking carpet whom he called matt. Both baba and I giggled when roonne told us what he had called it. How original a carpet called matt. Notdmoma looked at us disapprovingly and said that it wasn't very nice of us to tease roonne about his pets name.
The next thing notdmoma got started on was roonne's training. Like all boy's roonne wanted to be stronger, faster and more intelligent. So every day notdmoma spent a bit of quality time with him to help him achieve his goals. Baba and I also spend lots of time with him. We discovered he likes playing all the same games as we do. He also likes playing with toys even though he prefers boy toys. Like all boy's he might look rough and tough on the outside, but on the inside he's still a little boy. The only bad side to roonne is his eating habits. Talk about eat, he eats almost anything. Notdmoma has almost lost plenty of things because roonne thought he could eat them. Now notdmoma is trying to teach him some manners and is keeping a close eye on his diet.
We have caught notdmoma saying that we ought to bring the little boy in roonne out more. So that we can see the baby in him. To me that sounds like roonne might be staying with us longer than we think. A long term plan like that sounds a bit like adoption rather than short term fostering if you ask me. Which I think would be great.

P.S. I don't think this fostering thing is for notdmoma, she gets a little too attatched.

13th November 2003

Notdmoma is in a bad mood today.

She's been very proud of roonne lately. Hes been making good progress gaining levels and strength. Then today

roonne46862 grabs Super Toy Sail Boat from your inventory and devours it!
Boy was notdmoma angry. Ok it was a cheep toy but he has to look after his things like baba and myself. Roonne got a good long lecture from notdmoma. Then she told him, that from now on she was going to keep all her special things in her deposit box until he could learn to behave himself. Poor roonne, he did look sorry.

As nodmoma would say "oh well, boys will be boys"

17th November 2003

Yay, Happy Birthday to me.

Today its my birthday, notdmoma gave me some adpotables. They are sooo cute, I could pet um and pet um all day, Awwwww. Later we are going to have a party with friends and family, Yaaaaay

20th November 2003

Sad day

Three of my cousins have been sent away. They have been frozen in ice and it seem's that they may not return. Notdmoma was very sad as were we all. She told us that they had been sent away because they has supposedly been naughty. She also said that their innocence is being protested and that we hope they will return one day.

21th November 2003

Awww, a new cousin, orgho

25th November 2003

Poor roonne was ill last night.

Oh he did look bad, his coat was covered with lurgees that hop around and made him scratch. Notdmoma rushed him to the hospital. They said he had neomites, so he had to have an injection. Luckily it must have worked a treat because he's a lot better this morning.

To cheer roonne up notdmoma gave him another petpet today. As well as matt the walking carpet roonne has george the slorg. To show how pleased he was, roonne told notdmoma "I love george, my Slorg. I will look after him for at least 100 days, because I would like to help you get one of those avatars you like so much".

Maybe roonne is trying to make up for some of the naughty things he has done in the past, plus say thank you, in his own little way, for the care notdmoma gives him. As Notdmoma brushed a little tear away, I could tell she was touched by roonne's comment.

26th November 2003

A new sister

The family grows once again. This is my new sister saboreya, we call her sabie. notdmoma adopted her from the pound today, I think we are fostering her like roonne, but I bet we end up adopting her too. She's is very very shy and wouldn't hurt a fly.

I think you may notice that sabie doesn't quite look the same as when she first came to live with us. Although she was a beautiful kougra, sabie wanted to be different, she wanted to be braver. After a short chat with her, sure enough notdmoma was rushing out to the shops. On her return notdmoma handed sabie a Chia Transmogrification Potion. Notdmoma told her that this should give her the confidence she needed. Hoping that with time her inner confidence would grow. Sabie was sooo pleased, she rushed out to find new friends. But whilst she was out ...

Something has happened! saboreya says 'Im scared, there are so many horrible monsters out there'
Notdmoma gave her a big hug and sat her on her lap. She explained to sabie that there not all monsters and never to judge a book by its cover. They may be beautiful creatures inside, just like her. Friendships take time as will her self-esteem. It has to grow, like a little flower, as each day passes it slowly gets stronger and eventually it will begin to blossom. Sabie looked thoughtful for a moment, then agreed that these creatures she called monster looked a bit like her.

So that was the beginning of sabie's new life. I'm not sure if she will stay as a mutant chia or as her confidence grows she will change with it, accepting herself and those around her for who they are. I'll always love her what every she looks like

roonne's birthday

As a treat notdmoma took him to see Chomby and the Fungus Balls at the concert hall. You should have seen his face when he was given a pink cap as a souvenir. After a while he saw the funny side and wore it all the way home with pride.

25th December 2003

Yay Christmas!!!!

We got up realy early this morning to see what Santa had brought us. Notdmoma said that 4 am was a bit early for her, but for four young pets like us it was to be expected.

Our little stockings were full to the brim. One of the best prezie's I had was my new adoptable, its a zuff. We all got one each, there were zuff's

running all over the place, lol. We also had food, candy, toy's, books, plushie's and lots more. We visited all our relations and had Turkey Dinner. After that we went to a Jazzmosis concert, It has been the best day ever.

2nd January 2004

Oooo an exciting day for sabbie!

Today notdmoma managed to get the last piece of lab map. Because sabbie is still not happy with the way she looks. She was a bit scared but when the ray was fired at her she didn't change but gained 2 hit points. She will probably change eventually.

22nd January 2004

Sad sad day

George the slorg, roonne's second petpet has gone, he was 53 days old. The Turmaculus ate him, poor roonne is in shock. We will always remember george.

A message from notdmoma, baba, crocadee, roonne, sabie
& all pets in neopia.

PLEASE DO NOT DISOWN, ABANDON, CAST OFF, DUMP,
LEAVE OR PUT YOUR PETS IN THE POUND

Please be responsible owners. Thank you

Name : Unknown
Species : Uni
Age :
Occupation : Keeper of Adoptions.
Hopes to be :
This is obviously a good Samaritan who's name nobody appears to know. Some neopians fondly refer to her as Rose. Although seemingly wishing to remain anonymous, it is considered by many neopians that her work at the adoption centre be acknowledged. So I hope I may speak on behalf of the neopian population and simply say "Thank you Rose for your dedicated commitment to re-homing unwanted pets"

Neopedia : Dr_Death

Name : Dr_Death
Species : Techo
Age : Not anywhere near as old as he looks
Occupation : Keeper of Disowned Neopets.
Hopes to be : Anything but a Vet!

As a young boy, Dr_Death had an unusual interest in caring for animals. He would take home injured Puppyblews, nurse them back to full health and then find good homes for them all. After years of medical training, the enthusiastic doctor set off to find a job where he could make a real difference.

After much consideration, he accepted a position at the local pound. It was up to Dr_Death to find good homes for all of the unwanted Neopets. Many years passed and Dr_Death became sadder and sadder. Each month more innocent Neopets were abandoned by their heartless owners. Some because they were too playful, others because the owner couldn't feed them. Even worse, some were dumped simply because a new type of pet came along.

Eventually after dealing with more cruel people each day, Dr_Death gave up hope. The once happy Techo is a now a grumpy old fellow, who wishes he didnt have to see all the helpless young Neopets that are left to starve each day.

Quote Neopets.com does not promote the idea of disowning or throwing out a pet in any way. A pet is not just for Christmas or any other time of the year...a pet is for life! And keep it that way! '

Adopting and Disowning FAQ

If I want a new pet, do I need to create a new one? No, you can always go to the pound and adopt one of the many pets that are looking for kind owners.

How do you get to the Adoption Centre? Click on 'Pet Central' and then the large image to the lower left. It says 'Visit the Neopian Pound and adopt me' and has a sad purple Bruce on it. Note, you cant adopt that particular Bruce, but there are many more pets waiting for adoption.

Can I start an Adoption Agency? Yes you are quite welcome to take Neopets out of the pound, nurse them to health and them return them to the pound. This will increase that Neopets chance of finding a good home. You can even advertise that pet's name in your guild or on the message boards. However, you CANNOT charge people to adopt a pet you have nursed, nor can you ensure a particular Neopet will go to a certain person. As soon as a Neopet is placed in the pound it is available for ANYBODY to adopt.

notdmoma wanted me to tell you a few things that might help with the caring of your pets. I don't understand all the big words but this is what she said.

The first thing you need is a large helping of TLC. If you have this then you can't go far wrong.

T is for treat your trusting pet tenderly,
L is for lavish your loyal pet with love,
C is for cherish your cute pet, cuddle and care.

Once you have mastered the art of TLC you can move on to the all important general needs of your pet.

For many neopian's stats are all important.
For me a happy, well rounded and most importantly loved pet is all that counts.
If you cared enough to have adopted a pet or care greatly about your pet then you deserve a reward.
I care award for deserved pet owners
*Please help yourself*

Please note, although we love all neopian species the decision was made that they are cute as they are. We do not wish to create look-alikes. So we have discovered a few new species for you to adopt.
