    I was born cat person but I think that love and respect of creatures is also taught. I respect all life, but I understand cats.

    Meowmie to Lucy Lou and Barney, and Aunt to Timmy (RIP)

    Former kitties now in foster care: Nellie aka Eleanor van Fluffytail (at a Cat Cafe), Lady Jane Grey, Bob the Bobtail, and Callie. Kimi has been adopted into another family that understands Siamese. HRH Oliver Woodrow von Katz is in a Sanctuary.

    I'm Homeless, but with resources, and learning to live again.

    I would have voted 'born loving them all' except that I'm not a fan of lizards at all, not overly fond of monkeys either, and can't get quite as attatched to most fish or birds as I can other critters.

    I love pretty much most things with fur/hair, cats, dogs, guinea pigs, degus, big hairy spiders (as long as they aren't crawling on me), boa constrictors, porcupines, turtles, as well as the typical exotic cuties (koala, panda, penguins, cougar, bears, etc).

    RIP Dusty July 2 2007 RIP Sabrina June 16 2011 RIP Jack July 2 2013 RIP Bear July 5 2016 RIP Pooky June 23 2018. RIP Josh July 6 2019 RIP Cami January 6 2022
