I think it's great that you want to start an adoption agency. I'd offer my adopted lab pet if she were to turn into anything good (she was a Christmas Tuskaninny, got zapped pink, and is currently yellow). But if you advertise the pets on your page, won't that encourage stalkers to potentially hang out at the pound hoping to snag the pretty painted pets? I mean, they won't know the time of the adoption, but they'll know the name by looking on the page or at your look-up. Or am I missing something here?

Eek! I noticed that the grid was waaaaaaaaay off in the first one, so I made a second one and added a bit more to it ^^

Sure, I guess. If they wanted to hang around for days on end, constantly refreshing. As long as nothing obvious is put up on the pet page - such as "ADOPTED - In transaction" people aren't as likely to try for it.
If anything, the worry is someone getting it by random. But that's always a worry with adoption and has nothing to do with adoption centers.

What would be neat is a pet password. Say, the pet can't be adopted without the password for an hour, or something. But that would probably have bad side effects. :/

anyone interested just neomail me on neopets (username - missybabygurl12). I currently have 3 pets up for adoption and have a lot of "zappers" (people who have joined the project and are currently zapping pets for the agency). i posted ONE board last night and got SO much response from interested people, it was great :D

This adoption center is really great, thanks so much! I've already got a few nice looking owners lined up for my pet. I'll decide which one over the weekend (one's not sent his form in, but he looks nice so I'll give him a few days. Heh. ^^ ). I'm glad they can have some nice owners. :) Neomail you when it's transferred (that might be a bit longer yet, though. :X ) Also, got another one hopefully almost ready. :)

Side note - Other people, if you want to adopt a painted pet, it's not really a good idea to put "hy kuld i hav u pet i culdnt aford a paintbrsh..."
..Just a warning to adopters. :)
