I haven’t updated our Petfinder account since this started and maybe if we all just let the animals slowly dwindle down, taking them off as they are placed, without adding any new ones, they’d eventually find they were losing popularity to the new sites (Petango is a new service that is investing a lot in raising it’s profile to compete with Petfinder, but I think they also may have common aims in having some financial gain in sight).
