Hello! Dante is really handsome, who's the kitty in the photo? You're not "eww", by the way, and, I like your sweatshirt! I'm Kari, and, I'm owned by a 7 1/2-month old Bengal kitten named Lock, a 2-month old labrador retriever called Finn, a hairless rat named Luli and a hamster named Houdini Jingles. Well, I'm only owned by the first three....not that I don't like my hamster, but, I only got him because the pet store I worked at didn't have anything to do with him and no one would buy him. He's never been very nice, so, I just take care of him for his sake, he's not much fun. ;0) And, my boyfriend has a ball python named Monty. I noticed you're from Raleigh. I'm originally from Columbia, South Carolina. Yay, east coast! Anyway, welcome! I'm pretty new, too, I think you'll like it here.
