A really good morning. Thanks for inspiring me, Petopia.

Hello, Petopians. I've been reading the forums for awhile now, but I wanted to post today and thank everyone for inspiring me to keep looking for those rare pets. I've just had the biggest streak of good luck I've ever had this morning, and I wanted to share the story.
It started this morning in Deepholme. I was there on my warlock doing the daily quests, and I had just descended into the Crumbling Depths when NPCScan went off alerting me that Jadefang was there. I quickly logged onto my hunter and headed down there, but unfortunately the bomb quest wasn't available today. Frantically, I scoured the internet looking for another way up there. Blizzard removed the ability to die and rez up there, so that was out. I tried disengaging from the spot where Pebble is, but I couldn't get high enough. Finally, I read that people had had success using by unplugging the internet connection while flying in to the cave and plugging it back in a few seconds later. I tried this a few times with no luck. On my 6th attempt I finally landed on the platform and saw Jadefang waiting for me, but I got disconnected as soon as I dismounted. Thankfully I was able to log back on and tame her easily.
At this point I remembered stories of people on here finding several rares at once, so I headed out to look for the other new Cata rares.
No Maddex.
No Terrorpene..
No Sambas...
NPCScan! Hello Karoma!
Two rares in one day was already a personal best for me, but I decided there was one more I needed to go check. I'd been looking for him for a long time with no luck, but this time I had Karoma to help me search.
We we're searching for Arcturis. The last Spirit Beast I needed, he's eluded me for months. That all ended today!
I'd just come back to my computer from getting a drink when NPCScan went off again, and there he was in front of me. I was shaking so much while I tamed him, but he was finally mine.
If I hadn't been coming here and reading other peoples stories I would probably have given up a long time ago, so I wanna say thank you again. I'm still thinking of names for my new Spirit Beasts, and I still have more rare to find, but I'm hoping maybe my story can help inspire someone else in their hunts in the future.
Also, I heard it's good luck to post here, lol...
