Don't feel sad, sweetie! The best thing to do is keep posting, and reply to loads of other threads - you will soon feel right at home!

Also sometimes some areas of the board get quiet for a couple of days - hardly any new threads are started, so once people have replied to the existing threads, nothing happens!! Also due to different time zones it sometimes takes a while for people to see yout thread any reply. I am in the Middle East, so sometimes when I post it is the middle of the night in some parts of the uSA!!!

I have children your age, and it would make me very sad if they were feeling left out. But AGE is not the important thing here - we are all here because we love animals. Some of my best friends on this site are young enough to be my kids, and we have great fun PMíng each other.

Just keep chatting away, and you can always PM me if you like!
