You’ve heard of petfinder. Com — a website that helps rescue groups find loving homes for 31 . Maybe you have even found your own pet through the 32 . But do you know Petfinder started as an idea that came on the way to a New Year’s dinner?
Back in 1995 Google wasn’t a verb and Facebook and QQ didn’t 33 . The world wide web was more of a wild world. My husband Jared was a doctor and I worked for urban forestry. But we thought that anything was 34 on the web. It wasn’t used effectively.
We wanted to create a 35 . The question was, who would 36 a lot from our website? That was what we were discussing in the car that night on the way to meet friends for 37 . We thought about many ideas. “The website would make use of technology for a 38 responsible cause,” Jared finally said.
What cause needed our help? 39 , we both thought of animal shelters. Sure, we loved animals and I’d “ 40 ” them when I was a kid — like the snake I found in the backyard and persuaded (说服) my parents to let me 41 it. But now my 42 was on planting trees and Jared put his heart into 43 the sick. We didn’t even have a 44 . Yet I knew every year, millions of abandoned pets -- healthy, loving animals who wanted only a home ---were killed.
We couldn’t wait to tell our friends our 45 . They volunteered to help. Jared and I worked on —that’s what we 46 it. We wanted the site to be 47 to potential adopters. That meant all expenses 48 our own pocket. However, we knew if we saved just one life a month, it would be worth it.
Two years later our site went 49 . Today, more than 12,500 animals welfare groups 50 information about animals on Petfinder; 65 percent of animal adoptions in the US come through the site.
