Collection Discussion Thread ♡ NEW Poll!* ♡

[Dryadalis]

Since i've been super focused on collection all of the dogs my other collections fell behind
I even removed them all from my wishlist
However I have decided to reopen a few
And I even noticed some complete ones I'd forgotten about c:

PPS Birdies
Missing: 13
Gosh I forgot how cute these guys look together
Question: Would you guys keep the penguins in there??

Adult Bunnies
Missing: Unsure, I've decided to keep this closed till I've completed the dogs
Will come back to it as my next main quest

PPS Bunnies
Complete!!
Love these sleepy souls

Caterpillars
Complete!!
Question: Would you guys put a double in there so that the guy on the second page isn't alone?

Blanket Cats
Missing: 1
Cannot cope with how cute these are or how much it cost me for the dragon cat PPS :c

PPS Cats
Missing: 9
I should be getting the UR Bengal in an offsite trade in a week or so which is so huge
However I'm not sure if I'll have to trade it to complete the dog collection

Chameleons
Missing: 18
These are actually so hard to find or are they hiding from me XD
Question: Would you keep the PPS in with the adults or separate them?

Adult Deer
Missing: 24
These are also super hard to find, good job they are cute

PPS Deer
Complete! (I think)
I'm a sucker for these guys

Teen Deer
Missing: 4
Question: Would you put all the deer in one group or keep them separate?

Eggs
Missing: 5
How do I find eggs cute

Dwarf Hamsters
Complete!!
These guys were my first complete collection c:

Syrian Hamsters
Complete!
These guys are so special to me, every single one was a gift or from the pound

PPS Lions
Missing: 3
Getting the August PPS in an offsite trade in a couple of days, so excited
These were accidental, I kept telling myself not to trade for them but they were too cute to resist

Malk Wolves
Complete!!
These guys are so majestic I love them
Also an accidental collection
I fell in love with the VR after lots of offers and then went and got the whole set to keep him company

Monkeys
Missing: 4
Question: Would you put the 2 PPS monkeys in the group or keep them separate?
Question2: Would you group them with the chameleons as the lineart is the same?

PPS Squids
Missing: 6
Couldn't resist these guys

I feel bad that they have all been pushed aside whilst I collected the dogs
I'm gonna try and finish them off so that they are complete
Already stressing about collecting all the bunnies after I finish dogs up probably with no trade fodder left XD

Sharni obtained this beauty today! Her goal of a complete B-Wolf collection is near as this was her biggest hurdle to overcome ❤ Now she is only 5 easy to get B-Wolves away ❤❤(13 if including store pets)

Today was a wonderful day for me <3 I was able to strike 3 2013 Store Pets out of my WL, a bunch of WL Pets and my last missing Fennec Fox! Now I have a complete Fennec Fox Collection (excluding the UR) <3
Also has gone down to 24 pages WL over the last weeks and 13 pages Item WL. And I got the full DIY Cake Set in an offsite trade, never thought I would be so lucky :3

That was the reason why I opend up my PPS Owls Collection ^.^ I currently have 5 out of 13

Update:
So I've collected all 2016 and 2017 pets. I'm now just missing 37 pets for 2015 and I've started collecting pets from 2014. I'm struggling to get the rest of the 2015 pets. Been trying to get the pound ones but they're either gone or there's a R/VR showing and I pick those XD

Last week i completed my 2017 collection and now i have around 240 pets to go in 2016. Starting to regret trading away my collections last year. At least i kept most/all of the rares from 2011-2017 so it’ll be easy to catch up again.

Have you ever restarted most of your collections to focus on one specific collection? Was it worth it in the end?

I feel like giving up on my pony / horse collection... - any tips to get a collector back their motivation ?
(the thing I'm scared most about is the 12 store-pet horses from one year and the UR foal, all listpets or at least really demanded.)

my biggest motivation for a huge collection is to try and break it down into groups and try to complete those groups. Then you get the feeling of completing something even when there's loads to go. For example, break them down into years. Then you can focus on completing a year rather than the whole thing. I usually pick whichever I'm closest to completing XD

Only missing 3 pets from September 2008 now!

I've been praying for new rats so I can move faster on my collection - it's kind of at a lull right now, I've only gotten a couple of new ones this month since the majority of what I need is old and rare.

My 2017-18 Rat Collection is complete with 53 out of 53 rats!

I only need two more rats to finish my 2014-2016 Rat Collection. Both are rare, but shouldn't be super hard to get.

I'm at 228 out of 224 for my 2011-2013 Rat Collection and I want to finish it sooo bad.

And then. The beast. 2008-2010, here. I need something like 119 more. And I'm not sure that's right either, because of rereleases. I genuinely can't tell if I have duplicates in there, so woo, fun.

On a different note, my chameleon collection is almost halfway done!! The squids and guinea pigs have been going a bit slower, but they're still doing good.

Pray 4 me y'all, collecting is a lot harder than I thought it would be.
