Where can Rover and Mittens go online to socialize? Enter Fuzzster. Yes, Fuzzster is a social network for pets. They can have their own profiles with interests and photographs, and meet and make friends with other pets who are also listed on the site. And don't worry--there's a section for "non-furry friends," so you can create and add your own profile too.

You can even create a blog just for your pet, and your pet's friends at Fuzzster (both furry and non-furry) can add testimonials to tell the world how awesome they are.

Of course, you have to create your own profile at Fuzzster first, and you'll be listed as your pet's parent on their profile. On your profile, you can add all of your pets as your "fuzzsters," and each of your pets' individual profiles are linked from your profile page. If you have Fuzzster friends (other people's pets), they show ...
