I can see both sides of this too. Honestly for months I never looked at General and when I did I was like, wow, another world of PT. I know there are several on the cat side that just don't have time to visit anything more than Cat General and I'm guilty of that on my busier days.

I feel more welcomed on the dog side now but at first I felt like I didn't fit in because there seem to be favorites and certain groups. I rarely got many replies to any of my posts and gave up but now I feel more welcomed. The cat side has just always been more receptive to my posts.

I've tried going to Pet General and replying when I have time but so many of those posts are foreign to me since I have never even been around some of those pets before.

Anyway, I'm sorry if I've ever posted anything at Cat General that made anyone feel excluded and I truly believe no one does it there to exclude the rest of PT. I've just noticed that I don't get as many replies on General so I post on Cat General where most of my closer friends are sure to see but 99% of my post are about my cats anyway.
