petz resources
basics (link wiki)
Yabiko not only houses a full download of the petz 4 game, but has a wealth of useful petz-related tools. these include Petflux, which converts Petz 5 petz to Petz 4; GenePoolz, a helpful tool when breeding and assessing which traits are carried in the breeding pool; Neglect-Me-Not, a self-explanatory tool to reverse neglect & PetzByte, a python script to recalculate checksums.
neocities is an ode to the now defunct free website host, geocities. free + no ads make it an attractive choice for those wanting to start a site.
petz community hubs
forums (link whiskerwick, duke's group, rkc)
petz adoption sites (link pugs, the flea market)
social media (link facebook, discord, tumblr)
