    It closed at around the beginning of May if I believe correctly. No one is sure what they are doing to it. They did make an announcement saying they were 'remodelling'. There are a few rumours though. The most common one I have heard seems to be that TNT are making changes to it in order to make it more difficult to snipe pets with programmes. I don't know how they'd do it.. Maybe they'd introduce the system that is currently in use for restocking, not that it even works very well..

    TNT has already said in an editorial that they have to change the way the pound works because of the new customisation features.

    Yes, that was what I meant when I said that they had announced they were remodelling...

    The fact is, it shouldn't take 2 months to recode it. Very odd that the rest of the site would be up at the same time yet the Pound takes far longer. It doesn't make sense, which is why people suspect that there is more being done than they are letting on

    I think it is a tnt conspiration against all the pets lenders/buyers.. hahh ._.

    ok, my real opinion is: tnt closed the pound because they like to see ppl sad,bored and always with their same old pets..i think there is no other option

    I am pretty sure TNT closed it down to give it a huge re-do! I am personally hoping for a safer way to transfer pets, and I also hope it might make it easier to browse pets... the old way was only so-so to my liking :?

    I think tnt has closed the pound down due to a major makeover. It's pretty sad though cuz its been down for i think around2 months.

    Anyone reckon theres a chance to put a few "event pets" that are found in the pounds once it comes back to get everyone adopting again?

    I think the pound did need a rework, as has already been said the way you browse the pets needed changing.

    I am not too bothered the pound is down, I keep getting iced and loosing pets anyway!

    i think that with all the premium users paying for the site they shuold be more proffesional and fix the thing.

    I hope when it is fixed you will be able to click on any pet you see not just the one of three in the middle that come up when you do a random search...

    totally untrue, they've just been getting more and more expensive over the years. Christmas Pb's used to be 20k, Faerie Pc's used to be 400k.
