Any name ideas? Right now it's 'Mento Maniac' but I really want to change it.

for all you old, rare+ pet hoarders, how do you get your inspiration? i want to challenge myself with and older & valuable hoard but i dont know where to start with finding pets i might be interested in ^^

my inspiration comes from my love of the designs and the emotional meanings, which my rare+ hoards all have. for example my bmds are the most important pets to me on the website, and they would be regardless of rarity. for me its important to have a sort of connection with the pet, even more so for rare + hoards which take a lot of time and effort in my experience! ;w;

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 😄

I personally love cards and any games involving them, and I used to always have a queen of hearts around with me as a kid. I had some deep meaning for it back then but I honestly can't recall it now. I saw the pet and immediately wanted one, and it took a while before getting my first (Silica) but now I try my best to hoard them.

rare wise, mine changed after the update, its a lot harder now

for list wise, i do it more casually. my hoard, blue roses, are pretty hard to find and i dont go out of my way to find them, just if i come across them

I usually just love the design! I have Malk Mutants and 09 Reindeer horses that I’m hoarding because I just fell in love with ‘em,, but some of em kinda have meaning? My Pink Punks are based on a character I love, I love my Spiderwings design, but one of them was adopted on my birthday, so it’s kinda become a personal thing c: for my mini hoard of Drink Mes, they were an unofficial dreamie of mine that I never though I’d get,, so they mean a bit to me. but they also started off as me just loving the design :>

Honestly, I never wanted to hoard Rare+ pets. My penguins were common and uncommon and then the rarity changes and most are Rare! The penguin hoard is my important to me because they are my favorite animals, done by my favorite artist and my largest hoard so I'm very proud of them. Other hoards that went rare, I condensed to 20, unless they meant a lot to me, like my Cancer Dogs (I'm a cancer), or the ferret dogs, I started hoarding and gave up several times. But they kept coming back to me. Since the update, I decided to keep 20 of each colour.
I think the only "older" pet I started hoarding years after it came out was the the Royal Litter. They remind me of my favorite football team: the FL Gators!

I don’t think there was truly an inspiration. I simply fell in love with a pet’s design and decided I would like to have a bunch of them all in a pretty row. I suggest looking at rares + that you already have and see if there is any special connection there. Most of mine have a specific special meaning to me

In response to this tho I dont pay attention to rarity I pay attention to looks if I like the pet I’ll hoard it no matter the rarity I have a few list hoards like my store pets or my black advents or Bmds and malk dragons I just love the designs of the pets

I hoard whatever I love the design of. Rarity does not matter.

It's nicer if the pet is less common of course, but even those rare hoards can be worthwhile because they are much harder to do. Why not just flip through the archive a few times, find a design you really like.

I started hoarding the dog that got me into the site, pets that reminded me of a favorite tv show, patterns, special linearts. Whatever calls to you is what you should hoard
