My very first VR hoard was back in '11/'12, I got a liontail for the very first time, to be honest at that point on CS I barely focused on anything that wasn't for a collection, but that pet just made something tweak. If I remember right, that one pet set off the entire horde xD Though I got a set quickly, and back then with theIr low demand it was very easy to obtain them, the difficult part was getting the pets people wanted for them. I spent most of my time arranging deals with people for theirs and seeking the pets they wanted. It was a very satisfying activity, and every single one I hold dearly. I had completed the majority of my main collections by this point, just date swaps left, so it was something to spend my fodder on as well as feeling like achieving a dream pet each time. Though as I got more, and slowly had to accept that it's unfair to hoard a pet out of circulation, I moved on to some other hoards.
I have completed hoards of JubJubs, Green Dragon Cats and Lemon Dalmatians; I have always loved Alice in Wonderland, it ill always be one of my favourite animations and novels. One of my favourite video games is Skyrim, though after Fallout 76, Bethesda and I have fallen out 😂 My Character is a stealthy boss, I have another rare hoard for the Daedric Armour my character wears. The lemon Dalmatians have always reminded me of my baby sister, who I haven't seen for 6 years because of a falling out with my mumm Shes 11 next month.
I also have 2 active very rare hoards, Pink Sorbets because they've always been a favourite of mine, because secretly I'm just a big squishy, and that little heart of their chest just drew me in. And finally I also have a recently started hoard of the April '09 Gold/White Green Eyed Collie, it looks similar to my partners dog despite being a different breed (his is a lab/whippet/× rescue) and green is our favourite colour.
I would love to have a hoard for my dog but nothing quite fits, he's a blue saluki × greyhound, leaning more short haired saluki in appearance. He's such a big dope but I could knock him out sometimes 😂
I have a few rare hoards but this post is already massive so I won't bore anyone with those 😄
