funepets - an entertainment hub for pet lovers

Banner_funepets

Funepets was developed as an entertainment hub for all pet and animal lovers, whether it be a dog or cat lover or even a hermit crab or hamster lover or even a pet rock lover. :-). We wish to create a social networking community where all pet lovers can meet, collaborate and have a great time.

These days we are looking more and more towards pets to fill our emotional needs. In the company of pets we break free of reservations and demands of human society. They offer us a connection to the natural world beyond human conventions. They offer us simple love and affection, a friendship devoid of ambivalences that plague human relationships. And what do they ask in return – food, shelter, caring when sick and most importantly our companionship.

With so much to offer, pets have come to be treated more as family members than mere companions. Pet owners are willing to spare no expense where their pets are concerned. Their little friends now receive high quality food, best veterinary care and grooming. Some even pamper and spoil them with expensive couture, name branded gourmet treats, and state-of-art toys.

In the internet world, there are a number of social networking sites for teens, professional, mothers etc, but none for pets and pet lovers exclusively.  funepets.com provides a virtual space where pet lovers can post videos and photos of their pets, thus creating a permanent memory of their pets. Funepets.com also helps pet lovers connect with others who share and understand their passion for pets. There are a lot of activities one can participate in through our site. Send Birthday wishes from your pet to one of his buddies through the e-card option or share a memorable moment with others by uploading a video or photo for others to view. There’s also an option of sending media directly to your account from your mobile phone. For each item in the media sections, there are several actions you can take: email it to friends, submit it to a slew of social bookmarking sites, add it to other social networking sites like MySpace and Friendster, add to favorites, blog about it, etc. How about finding out what is in style in pet couture or sharing opinions or concerns on your pets health through the pet forums. One need not necessarily be a pet owner, if you are a pet lover, just go to funepets.com on a long day and check out some fun videos or photos posted by others that are sure to bring out a smile and relax you.

Funepets.com is gaining popularity among pet owners as more and more users are signing up everyday. The site has received positive reviews from blogs such as mashable, killerstartups and many other tech/business blogs all over the world. Funepets is attracting investors in the pet market not only in US but also internationally. One potential company interested in partnering with  funepets.com is one of the three largets trading houses in Japan that does investments and Business Development for partners abroad and domestic.

We have also been approached by other social networking sites to discuss strategic partnerships. However at present, we are exploring all the possibilities to see which partnership would result in Funepets being able to provide the best experience to our users and the pet community as a whole.

We sincerely invite all pet lovers to sign up with us and spread the word of us. Please do not hesitate to give us your feedback, i.e., both positive and negative.

Thanks,

~Funepets Team
