Cat Meet-up groups

[Randi]

Lut, I searched for a cat group within 50 miles of Brussels and didn't check where it was. LOL!

Dagmar, who started our group also organized this one. She even wrote a book.

I'll tell you how I came to know about Meet-Up groups... a few years ago I worked in a company where I met a Scottish girl. She told me that she was a member of Worktrotters and a British Ex-pat group here. Then, a while later I met a girl from N.Y. in my local supermarket, where I buy cat-litter and canned food. She worked there and had noticed me buying cat stuff, so we always had a chat about cats. She was already a member of Denmark Cat-sitting Exchange and said: Why don't you join! So I did.

I just saw the pictures you uploaded, Vickie, there are some really cute kitties there. I couldn't help compare them to the ones I know from PT. One of them reminded me of Edwina and there's another grey sweetie - oh, they're all special. Did you fall in love with the tabby you're holding?

And look at this one... swoon!!

We were told that the kitties with the collars on are a bit on the nasty side. In other words, watch out - could nip or swat you. You wouldn't think that from the pictures would you? That tabby I was holding was one the most loving cats there - although the sanctuary has about 800-900 cats now. It's labelled as a sanctuary and the cats are there to live out their lives. There are a few adoptions but not many. Most of the cats were feral and now have come to appreciate the rays of the sunshine in a safe environment. I fell in love with all of them and I'm going to find some time to volunteer.

Sorry, more later as I'm at work.
