I don't know... to be honest, the cat side feels soooo much better. Tonya is 100% right. I don't visit dog side much, and post less because it "feels" so different. So cliquish (sp?) Nicki's posts get like 5 answers, and they are always the same 5 peope (thank you, you know who you are... it means the world to me that you respond.)
As for the threads in cat general that belong in general, as for baby ones, I know they were in BOTH places because a lot of people never stray from the cat side to even venture into general. They were just announcing a major life event. The cathouse threads were totally not meant to offend anyone! They were meant to be fun! I posted my "cathouse" in cat general because I honestly felt more comfortable opening my doors there. The atmosphere is warmer and closer. I know the majoity of those who post in there, and I do not know them as well in general. My renovated third floor went there because the cathouse threads began there. You know I've posted things I've been working on in general... my daughter's room went here as I was working on it and after I was done. I'm not playing favorites here.
Also a ton of people only go to cat general. When I first started posting, it was MONTHS before I realized there was other borads here!(darn favorites tab!) and I asked for prayers before I knew I could ask for them in general.
Also, there might seem to be a lot of "uncatlike" threads, but if you went to cats a lot, then you'd notice there is a lot that are part of a running "inside" joke. If they were posting in General, the response wouldn't be the same and there would be a lot of people left clueless as to what was going on. To me, that would be more insulting to post something in general as an inside joke that would leave others confused.
