Title: Hello, I'm new here, too
Post by: Rebecca on July 20, 2011, 10:43:00 AM: I've just joined this forum as I love all animals and do what I can to help them. I'm a portrait artist living in Lincolnshire with my husband, scruffy dog and a pair of degus. I don't have a cat at the moment...I'm not sure the dog and degus would like one. The last cat I had was a beautiful long haired tabby called Eggy Fat Cat..she was far from fat! We had to let her go when she was 17 and her health failed.

I've had a couple of Siamese and a few moggies over the years. My neighbours have cats and one lady has several rescued through the local Cat Protection League, so I get my feline fix that way.

I've attached a picture of Eggy, which I drew many years ago.

So pleased you decided to join us (we've been speaking via email ;) ). Even though we are a cat forum we like all animals and would love to see pics of the scruffy dog and degus lol.

Post by: Sam (Fussy_Furball) on July 20, 2011, 13:25:52 PM: Ahhhhhhh what a lovely little lad (definitely a "scruffy" dog lol).

Love the degus as well (they are just big gerbils really aren't they?).

Post by: Rebecca on August 04, 2011, 11:04:11 AM: Thank you, everyone, for all your "welcomes". Sorry I've taken so long to say this but I have so much work at the moment and little time for doing what I really love, which is keeping up with forums! Ah well, it's good to be busy :thanks:

Oh, and the degus now have names. When they talk to each other they sound like marker pens squeaking on a white board, so they've been named Berol (the bold one) and Sharpie (the more cautious one).
