Attention, earned gently.
People notice your pet because it's alive. Then it gives them reasons to stay: it rewards their curiosity, keeps them company, and gently points them toward you when they need help. All without ever nagging.
Every visit has a little story.
Most visits are short, so your pet shows its personality in the first seconds and follows the visit, not the clock.
First seconds
Arrive
Makes a small entrance and says hello once.
Noticed, without shouting.
First 40 seconds
Discover
At its most eager. The first click, scroll or quick mouse move will very likely get a reaction.
Visitors discover it's alive before they look away.
When attention fades
Invite
When a visitor goes quiet, heads for the exit or comes back from another tab, it invites them over. One nudge at a time, further apart each time.
Most people won't touch a widget unless they're asked.
The first touch
Reward
The first hover, stroke or pet always gets an extra-big response.
A first touch that pays off invites a second.
While reading
Companion
Little glances as the page scrolls. Calm while people read, silent while they type.
Good company that never competes with your content.
Moments of doubt
Guide
When a visitor seems stuck, it gently draws their eye toward your help.
A moment of doubt becomes a chance to help.
After a long quiet
Doze
When nothing happens for a good while, it curls up and falls asleep.
A sleeping pet never distracts a reader.
Back to the tab
Return
After 20 seconds or more away, it wakes up and waves welcome back.
Coming back gets a warm hello.
It notices when a visitor drifts.
Quiet moments are when people wander off or get stuck. Your pet picks up on a few of them and answers with a gentle nudge. Each of these moments comes at most once per page.
Reached the end, then stopped
About eight seconds after a visitor stops at the bottom of the page, your pet invites them over: I'm here if you need me.
Heading for the exit
When the mouse slips out through the top of the window, your pet looks up once and invites them over. Just enough to be noticed. No pop-up, no pleading.
Clicking again and again
Rapid clicks on the same spot often mean frustration. Your pet looks over with concern and, if you have a chat, waves to offer help.
Reading without moving
Your pet quiets down and may offer a gentle invite. If nobody answers, it grows drowsy and dozes off. When the visitor moves again it wakes up, and that little moment is a delight of its own.
Back from another tab
After a while away, your pet wakes up if it was dozing and gives a welcome-back wave, then an invitation.
Play pays off.
Every first touch is rewarded, and the rewards grow the longer someone plays. Even petting a sleeping pet earns a happy, sleepy wake-up instead of a fright.

Built not to nag.
Pop-ups- Your pet never covers your page, blocks a click or opens anything on its own.
Nagging- Two invitations per page at most, and only one of them comes with words.
Guilt-trip goodbyes- Visitors on their way out get a curious look, never a sad farewell.
Staring at the cursor- It only watches the mouse when it comes close, then gets on with its own business.
Nonstop performing- It saves its big moves for special moments and hushes while people type.
Judge it by your own numbers.
We won't promise you a lift. Your dashboard shows how often your pet is seen, played with and used to open chat, so you can see for yourself what it does for your site. Visitors are never profiled.
