My first petsite was Chickensmoothie, and I still play it. I like how chill it is compared to FR. I also adore how well the dress up system over there works, you can get really creative with it! When I am stressed I usually grab a random pet over at CS and dress it up, it calms me somehow.
Second petsite was Valenth, it was a adoptable site where you had to level your pets that they could grow up and in a certain way, every species had a egg, a baby, and 3 different adult stages (Lawful, Neutral and Chaotic if i remember right). You had to feed them certain foods in order for them to grow to the adult you wanted. The art was really cool and the lore too, sadly it shut down around the time FR was launched.
Third petsite was Dragoncave, it was fun at the start when it was new, but the new releases got really exhausting for me after a while. I felt it just super unfair that you had to had a good internet connection/ping to the site in order to grab the eggs you wanted, and well people could maliciously target your eggs/hatchlings and give them too much clicks which caused their death. I remember it took soo long until a "fog/hide" function was implemented to protect your eggs/hatchlings. I eventually just stopped playing because I could frankly not to be arsed anymore because basic QoL features where just missing and not implemented.
Then there was Squiby, it was an offshoot site of Valenth kinda, but it died due incompetent owners.
The only 2 petsites I play nowadays are Chickensmoothie and Flight Rising. I steer clear of new petsites because I frankly rather play videogames in my freetime nowadays, but CS and FR have a special place in my heart.
