Yes but will you love my pets

AMSTERDAM, Netherlands (Reuters) -- A new dating Web site helps match people who are compatible with their dogs, cats or other pets.

The Dutch site, called Dier-en-Mens or Animal and Human, says it is a meeting place for all animal lovers, whether you are looking for a partner, someone who also likes snakes and spiders or someone who takes care of your chickens when you want to go away for the weekend.

"How can you find a nice partner who is just as crazy about animals as you are?" said Betty Mercey on Sunday who launched the dating site this weekend.

Members of the site can describe themselves and their pets, and when they think they have found someone who also likes their pets, they can contact each other through the Web site.

"I've heard from friends who have pets that it is difficult to find a partner. Specifically if you have more than one pet," said Mercey, who owns thirteen dogs and four cats with her partner.

me too. Its hard to find someone who thinks its "adorable" for the cat to munch on Bikies which are in a bowl by my pillow every night! and to wake up to a dog thats either going to drop a shoe on your head, or has his chain or lead in his mouth wanting a walk while your still in bed! Who needs a man anyway when you have such love from your animals

We all seek the same in life, friendship, love, companionship and faithfulness, all this we can get unconditionally from an animal. Makes you wonder why we humans think we're so bloody special!
