petsicon blogOur blog about petsicon, the pet health lexicon

The miracles of technology obviously don’t protect us from human
stupidity, in this case my stupidity, as I wrote a world-changing,
potentially literature-nobel-prize-winning blog-entry the day before
yesterday but stupidly copied some other mail correspondence in the
file and so this cute blog entry will be lost forever, and I don’t
remember what I wrote exactly.

PetsiAttack!!

Probably I was still raving about our first petsicon core team
photoshoot with our new friend Daisuke Nikaido, a Japanese
photographer who put up his tents here in Berlin recently to get a fresh
perspective and refine his super-photographing-skills as you can see on
our team pictures. Here a small sample:


It was a lot of fun for the four of us, especially with our Duisburg-
petsi Calle, who we can only meet every couple of weeks but who’s in
constant skype-conference reach and,as I mentioned in the last post,
still manages to do a great job.

Later we went to the best pizza place in town (some in the team say
second best) Il casolare, the rustic italian pizzeria run and founded
by Italian punk-musicians, to have our first petsicon company dinner!
(The three-star-michelin restaurants will have to wait until we
actually MAKE some money )
Furthermore our long lost brother, Andreas Mertin, our UK vet who we
had lost contact to for a few months while he explored the UK
veterinarian wilderness, must have smelled our reunion and surprisingly
also showed up in Berlin and joined our first petsicon party which
(unfortunately?) didn’t last as long as those parties that we had
when we young (that means when we started studying)
I could never have imagined that I would rather go to bed not too late
to be able to get up the next morning and work, but I’m happy to have
found something that is worth it.

We were also asked recently who we later want to sell our business to.
The answer of course is: “To NOONE!!!” (Yes, we know, that’s not
something potential investors and venture capitalists want to hear)
At least that’s our wish, what the harsh reality might bring we don’t
know and we’re also pragmatic and don’t see that as a dogma.
So I guess the core team is of the same opinion about petsicon
as Alfred Lord Tennyson who said in his famous lost-love-quote:
“‘Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.”
We love you petsicon and we’ll make sure never to lose you
