    Just wanted to say 'Hi" - I'm new here

    I found this site searching the web, and thought this would be the perfect place to talk because I understand that bond people have with their pets - mine mean everything to me.

    A little about me... I am a college student studying animal behavior and I work at a local pet shop part time. I love it there because I meet a lot of people that share my interest in our companion animals. Orcas are my obsession, I love watching movies and 'Friends' re-runs, and I'm a huge Red Sox & Patriots fan.

    These are my critters:
    Shadow & Gus: my part-coon kitties that I adopted three years ago and are now seven years old; very social - they act more like dogs than cats

    Draco, Satine, Outback & Damon: my fish (first three are bettas, and the other is a paradise fish); they do have their own personalities and keep me company while I'm working at my desk

    Erin: she is my 6 year old mini lop; she loves to chase the cats around, which are twice her size, and, if you ask her, she also owns the couch

    Blink: he is my six-month old leopard gecko; I got this little baby boy from a friend who breds them - she gave him to me because he is partially blind from being born premature and knew I could take care of him

    Hope to meet many of you and your own critters in the future!
    Shadow & Gus (the kitties), Blink (the gecko), Draco, Satine, Damon, & Outback (the fishies) ~I'll be there for you - 'cause you're there for me too~

    Be at peace, Erin, I will miss you and remember your sweet face always...

    Hi and welcoem to PT!!

    I would love to see pictures of Shadow and Gus. I have a part coon kitty too. His name is Ripley and he will be 13 in about 10 days. You can see his picture as well as my other 4 cats and dog in my signature below.

    If you get a chance come on over to Cat General and tell us more about your kitties. I'm not trying to snub your other pets I just happen to be a crazy cat lady.

    Welcome Orca...love your name BTW. I'm a whale freak!!!

    My name is Vickie but I prefer to be called Slick. I'm one of the older members of the crowd and I live in BC Canada. I am servant to Max the Persian who is 11 and Speckles the Tabby who is 17.

    That's quite and interesting family you have and I'm sure looking forward to seeing pictures.

    A word of warning....this site can become very addictive. Be prepared.....
    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!

    Until one has loved an animal, part of their soul remains unawakened.
