Title: Hi from Somerset
Post by: Amanda on October 27, 2007, 16:43:04 PM
Hello - I am a newbie here and I found you through Cat Chat.

I am cat mad and have always had one or two as pets. My previous cat was Grace a rescued Persian who died in March aged 16.

In June I took in two kittens named Spike and Dru. Sadly on 10th October I lost Spike on the road outside my house. My picture shown is Spike aged about 13 weeks - I miss him more than I can say.

His sister is now an indoor cat much to her disgust but we are hoping to construct something onto the side of the house taking in the back door so she can go out safely.

I'm a married Mum of one little boy aged 4 who is also cat mad.

Ah - the wonderful Dru - the cat who put the R in relaaaxxxed. Thank you all for your lovely warm welcome. It's good to be among other "cat" people who don't think you are mad for mourning a cat.

Fab names by the way, are you a Buffy fan?

Oh yes am a huge Buffy fan - two new kittens - male and female so the names Spike and Dru seemed too good to miss.

So sad that I lost my beautiful handsome Spike though.
