About the Founder   

Photographer Marilina Dávila www.silverandpixelphoto.com

 Born in Pennsylvania, United States,  I moved to Puerto Rico as a child,  a beautiful island in the Caribbean surrounded with spectacular scenery of flora and fauna, ocean life, landscaping, mixed cultures and history.  Living on an island of  different races and culture  I developed the need of searching for animal wellness.  The love and compassion for animals  has been part of my life for as long as I can remember.  I have always had an enduring fascination and love for animals.   These lovely creatures have been an essential part of my development as a sensible  human being. Animals had taught me about real unconditional love, fidelity and loyalty.  I remember having as a 15th birthday gift,  my first dog which I named "Skippy".  If I loved animals before Skippy,  I don't have words to  explain how I love animals after him.  My life during and after living with Skippy changed completely.  Having a family composed of humans and animals in which both species intertwine to share their love and companion is an enrichment and delighted way of living.  Living with  pets and sharing part of my life with each one of them makes my life happier and more special each day.  Everyday,  I learn from my pets  that love and forgiveness is a basic and simple step to keep on going in this cruel and rude world filled with empty hearts and insensible creatures called "Rationale Humans" towards animals.      

I decided to create this web site, for visitors to come and celebrate pets of all kinds.  Also, share their knowledge, experiences, thoughts, adventures, pictures, comments and,  Why not?... gossip related to pets. In memory of my beloved Skippy and my lovely present pets; Shadow, Camelia, Mia and Coco...  I launch this web page for the use and fulfillment of each one who will visit  and become part of Gossip Pet.  It's a way for me to share my appreciation and my love for those who can't speak for themselves. Please feel free to contact me with any questions, suggests or comments you may have.    

I hope you enjoy your visit, become a collaborator and come back again soon!   

Paws and Love,
