    WELCOME TO PET TALK, CAROLINE!!
    He he, you used to live in Luxembourg? Where? Luxembourg is only a 3 hours drive from where I live (near Gent- Gand). Do you speak real "luxembourg's" language?

    Welcome! There is no shortage of cats here in Pennsylvania. Lots of shelters. I guess you aren't in the US though. :-(

    Hi Caroline, welcome to Pet Talk! I'm also a cat lover, I have my precious tabby girls, Luna and Lily.

    Hope you'll get the chance to share your life with a kitty!

    Welcome Caroline!
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    Thank you for the warm welcome

    How nice to meet all of you And yes I speak luxembourgish and I have also been to Gent, it is so beautiful there!!
    You have all so nice pictures from your cats, that makes me happy just to look at them! And what great and true quotes Slick!
    I am playing more and more with the idea of getting a cat from the asylum, but I am afraid that the cat could get runover by a car as I live in a city...we have a yard but cats find the way to the streets too ; ) I think that cats need the live outside too so I don´t want to let it only inside the apartment?
    What do you think?
    If I have a question about cats health, where should I write that?

    nice greetings to all of you
    Caroline

    Caroline, I agree that cats are happier being indoors/outdoors, but as you say, it is dangerous in a town. However, Fister seem to stay inside the yard, but then, it's big and he was born there.

    I do also think that a cat can get used to being indoors only, if the cat has never been outside, he probably won't miss it - but I personally would have a hard time confining a cat in a small flat, though. It just doen't seem right. In a bigger flat, I wouldn't worry too much.

    You know, the shelter "Kattens Værn" (see: http://kattensvaern.dk/) is in the street just around the corner from you. You could always go and have a look. And I would love to come along. May have to make an appointment.

    Posting about cat health, you should do that in the Cat Health Forum - see: http://petoftheday.com/talk/forumdisplay.php?f=19
