Hi Alicyn... to Human Pets. Who am I? Just some guy who found you among the new profiles.
You don't understand this app? Well, it's a way to meet people and interact, all with a "pet/owner" theme. You're way ahead of most people since you've picked your animal, background, etc. for your profile.
So, either wait for people to find you (like I did) or start looking for someone to buy or just talk with. I'd suggest the "Random Profile" button. For each profile you view, you get 5 points. You need points to buy pets--duh! And gifts....
What the heck... wait a minute... I'll do some shopping.
