Up...date...ed...

Augh, that took a while. Then again, it's my fault for not updating for 3 months. Thanks Ebly for a bit of help. Everything should be up to date, aside from the fanfiction setting.

Thinking about doing an overhaul of some kind; maybe making a new thread and splitting the posts more and linking them in the TOC for faster browsing.

Maybe add a stats section of some kind, like number of comics, top posters, etc. I had more ideas for it somewhere...

If anyone can think of more stuff for me to add, then lemme know.

After reading through the first few posts again, I don't know whether to label myself as smart or cowardly for refusing to write a fanfic about a main character. :mrgreen:

Well, um, actually I think the forum and the webcomic are getting to the freaky, mind-tripping point where even topics like this are difficult to maintain for one person.
I was going to make a joke but then I did.

you guys could use the wiki for some of this, you know

it's not supposed to be comprehensive, but it would be a good primer and might prevent buck dying from exhaustion

Well, how about that. Housepets! is WikiFur's featured article. I guess someone must have liked how I wrote it up. :mrgreen:

Okay, I have two questions:

Do Fido and Sabrina live in the same household? (thought this might be an appropriate place to ask)

And Can I have my fanfic featured in the fanfic section? http://www.housepetscomic.com/forums/vi ... 53&start=0

No Fido and Sabrina don't live together its generally thought that Sabrina and Tarot live together but even that hasn't been said definitely yet.

Well she does have a collar, so I would think she has an owner. And because both Tarot and Sabrina have Egyptian themed tags, many fans speculate they have the same owners.

Note how it says everything is updated, save for fanfiction!

I've been a bit busy lately. I'll get to it eventually, along with all the other fanfics.

I mean the translators. Buck has the forum members who do translations listed, but they're outdated.

Also, just a thought, if you really get into the sprucing up mood, you might rearrange who's in the Main/Major/Minor Character sections (some Supporting Characters have become a lot more involved of late ;) )

And you asked for help with the ferret colors so:
Simon: cream fur, dark brown arms/legs/tail, tan mask/back

Lana: beige fur, white head, tan arms/legs/tail

Duke: light Brown fur, white head, brown neck ruffles

Keene: I'd say the face is cream colored

Rock: grey fur, white head with grey mask, white paws, dark grey shoulders/forearms,

Pit: Already done

Okay guys! Here's what I'm going to do for the fanfiction, because I do enjoy my sanity.

If your fanfiction is not on the list, and you would like it to be on the list, you need to a) Have it match the criteria I set, and b) You need to send me a link (formatted for the forum with its name) and a short possible description.

Do this in PM's or your request will be ignored and deleted. Thanks!

There is not, as such, a catch-all fan art thread. There is one fairly popular one, but if you'll look into the forum history, you'll see that individual threads tend to pop up.

what are the species of dogs in the comic, i know that King is a Corgi and Rex is a Bulldog, but what types of dogs are the others?

Joey's parents haven't been mentioned at all up to this point. It's conceivable that he lives with Fido and Ryan, as Ryan is also a roleplayer, which would explain how Joey picked up the habit. However, in Our Sacred Duty Ryan has to ask Fido which of his brothers belongs to Jake; if Fido and Joey lived under the same roof, then Ryan probably wouldn't need to ask.

... unless he was talking about someone else.

Wouldn't Joey's parents be the same parents of Fido/Bino, since they are all brothers? <_<

Joey's owner has not been mentioned, nor referred to. Take a look; there is no comic that is tagged "Joey's Mom" or "Joey's Dad."

Fido is owned by Ryan, while Bino and Max are owned by Jeff. Joey's parents have not been mentioned.

I think, however, that I can guess that Joey's dad is fairly nerdy, introverted, addicted to his computer, and generally only has Joey for company when he can remember he has a dog. I've noted that Joey seems to have a LOT of free time and moved in his mouse girlfriend into his doghouse (indicating that his owner doesn't pay much attention to Joey), where he seems to spend most of his time, and he has access to RP books and art supplies which he certainly couldn't afford on a meager pet allowance.
