Hey, all! I've actually frequented this web site daily since 2000 as Sia1. Changed the screenname because I got married and no longer have those initials ;) Anyway, I'm the meowmie to three kitties Whisper, Shadow, and Callie. I don't have a digital camera, but if I post here more frequently will probably have to go buy one.
Shadow and Whisper are litter mates, though you wouldn't know it by watching them--they hate each other :( . They are both six years old, as of June 1998 and are the kittens of my sister-in-law's cat. I was able to watch their birth and help take care of them as little little babies so am very attached. Shadow is a 14 lb. medium haired black female and Whisper is 11 lbs of grey tabby love (he reminds me of a gray version of Dylan, one of the Harris cats--the eyes have that "lover boy" appeal).
Callie, my baby, was found when we were living in Tucson, AZ on a side of the road. Someone had tossed her out of their truck and my boyfriend (husband, now) at the time pulled over and picked her up. Lucky me! She's approximately 4 years old and is a 13 lb female orange tabby. She's by far the NAUGHTIEST of the group, which probably explains her utter appeal to me.
We also have a 5 year old red-eared slider, Kahn. I've had him since he was five days old, a pet store sold him to me as a "free gift" with a little tank I purchased. That pretty much sums up my fur and shelled?? babies.
As for me, I'm a 25 year old graduate student living in Alabama with my husband and both will be graduating this summer. I hope to go to get my PhD up in North Carolina or at UC Riverside next fall. I've been married for a little over a year and a half but have been with my husband for seven years on Jan 1st; we are high school sweethearts.
I'm not sure why it has taken me so long to finally introduce myself. I just really enjoy reading about other people's animals and feel as if I have nothing else to say. I think this is a truly wonderful website, with wonderful people who care as much about their animals as I do. Sorry this is way too long but I just wanted to formally say hi!
:D :D :D ;)
