Channel icons with attention effects.
Chaty shows a floating chat icon that fans out into channel icons, with attention effects and a call-to-action message to catch the eye.
Chaty
The Chaty alternative your visitors will want to pet.
Chaty collects messaging apps behind a floating widget. PetMySite gives the live chat you already run an animated pet as its front door, with page-specific messages and private analytics included free.
- Free on up to 100 sites
- All five pets included
- Tawk.to, Intercom, Crisp, Zendesk
Chaty and PetMySite, round by round.
Both put a friendly way to reach you in the corner of every page. Here is where they differ.
The first hello
A character, not an icon.
Piko, Dottie, Orbi, Wisp or Halo waits in your corner with a personality of its own. It looks around, reacts when visitors pet it and plays an entry animation as your page loads.

Keep the chat you already run
Built around messaging apps.
Chaty connects channels such as WhatsApp, Messenger, Telegram, email and phone, plus its own contact form.
Chaty
Your live chat, with a pet at the door.
Connect Tawk.to, Intercom, Crisp or Zendesk. One click opens your provider directly; the pet steps aside while the chat is open and comes back when it closes.

The right message on the right page
Targeting is a Pro feature.
Chaty’s page targeting, time and scroll triggers, and extra widgets for specific pages are part of Pro.
Chaty
Smart Bubbles, on the free plan.
Write up to 20 page-specific messages. Match a path such as /pricing or /shop/*, choose a delay, and add a button that opens chat or a link. Matching happens in the visitor’s browser.

Questions people ask before switching.
Is PetMySite a free alternative to Chaty?
Yes. The free plan includes all five pets, chat and link actions, page-specific Smart Bubbles and analytics on up to 100 sites. Paid plans only remove the small “by PetMySite” badge.
Can I keep WhatsApp as a way to reach me?
Yes. Add a WhatsApp link action next to your live chat, email or phone. With more than one action, the pet opens a compact menu so visitors can choose.
Which live chat tools does PetMySite work with?
Tawk.to, Intercom, Crisp and Zendesk. The pet opens your provider directly, steps aside while the chat window is open and returns when it closes.
Can I show different messages on different pages?
Yes, on every plan. Smart Bubbles match a page path such as /pricing or /shop/*, wait for your chosen delay and offer a button that opens chat or a link.
Does PetMySite collect visitor data?
Widget analytics count impressions and chat opens in aggregate. PetMySite does not record visitor identities, message contents, full page URLs or cookies for them.
Give your chat a front door worth opening.
Preview a pet on your own website in under a minute. Your current chat keeps working the whole time.
