website where pets talk

Talking Pets is a site I came across today that allows you to select a pet (cat or dog) and make it talk by selecting a pre-recorded message or a message that you type on your own.  Then you can email your talking pets to all of your friends.  This site could provide incentive for beginning ESL learners to want to write in English so they can hear it spoken back to them.  It can’t get any more fun than a talking pet reading your writing back to you!
