History
The Pets came together in 1999 and began to record power pop songs using a computer and rented portable studio equipment.[2] In between recording sessions, which extended over about eight months, they played a few live shows locally.[3][4] They then approached Endearing Records, which released the tracks as an album, Love and War, in 2000;[5][6] by this time The Pets had disbanded. The album was reviewed favourably[7][8] and received considerable airplay on college radio in Canada, particularly in Winnipeg.[1][4] Members of the Pets went on to form The Waking Eyes.[9]
