Title: Hello - newbie here from Derbyshire
Post by: Joanne on November 13, 2009, 16:38:21 PM
Hi everyone

Have just joined the forum and thought I'd introduce myself...........  Well, I'm 39 yrs old, live in Derbyshire and love all animals, I currently have 3 cats (all tabbies), 1 dog and 8 guinea pigs, all rescued.  I'm a Tellington TTouch practitioner for companion animals and also volunteer at a rescue centre in Ashbourne, working with both the cats and dogs.  I've always had cats and my current crew are as follows:-  Holly 12 yrs old, she was the first cat I rescued and is the 'Grande Dame' of the household and just has the sweetest nature.  Then there's Casey, he's about 6, a very handsome big tabby and definitely has a look of scottish wildcat about him and finally there's CharlieCat, he's 18mnths old and he was from a feral colony, he initially came as a foster but quickly won my heart, he's completely adorable and it was so lovely for him to be able to learn to trust people  :Luv2:

Can't wait to start looking round the forum
speak soon
Jo

Glad you've found us, I'm sure you'll enjoy it here.  It really is a very friendly forum with lots of friendly helpful advice, if ever needed, and of course lots of fun.

I do feel it my public duty to warn you though that it can be a teensy bit addictive  :Crazy: You have been warned  :evillaugh:
