Hi Brena,
 :welcome: and am glad you finally surfaced.  Was waiting for you to introduce your mob to all the peeps here.
I think you'll like it here very much.
Chris
Best wishes, Chris, Samson, Buddie and Pepper

:thanks: we just love animals. there are so many strays around our house. we wish we could do more at least get them all inside. i have managed to get three of them in and found new homes for them. alot of times it's harder for the new cat to deal with all the animals here than it is for ours to deal with them. ours are really pretty good about accepting new members. they don't really fight. our oldest chihuahua bella gets very angry with the cat sometimes, she just doesn't have any patience for them, lol. we got her from the pound and she has some lingering anger she has gotten much better. pagan starts with voodoo sometimes because voodoo is the dominant male and pagan would like to be but voodoo takes care of it pretty quickly. and isis is nasty with her brothers alot but i think if i was the only girl and the smallest by far of a litter of four i might be a little bitchy with their rowdy butts too.

You have a neverending stream of cute cats! Zoey is absolutely beautiful, all of the others are too of course but I think if I had the chance I would catnap Zeke and Zoey  :evillaugh:

Anyway, it's way past my bedtime! It's been lovely meeting your menagerie  :)

yes helen he is my little prince, i adore him, but really i adore all of them. he just melts my heart he has the loudest purr and he follows me around everywhere.

this is trouble. i have had him the longest. he's my buddy he's not real fond of the cats though.

and some of my outside friends

and here is zoey. another neighbor found her in all tangled up in a sticker bush and came here to get us to help her. skip went and got her. when he brought her here she was a mess and scared to death. she is about two weeks younger than zeke. they are best friends.

OMG Zeke  :Luv: :Luv: :Luv: is quite possibly the cutest cat I have ever seen (barring my little girl of course).  He's adorable, I bet you have an amazing bond with him having handreared him.  Tiggy was handreared (by vet from 2 wks) and by us from 4 weeks, I don't think I could love anyone or anything more than I love her!

here are pagan and nico.

scherazede is a persian that we took from a customer, i found her locked in their laundry closet she was shaved except for the huge knots about the size of my fist that were all the way down to the skin. it took her about a year too start comming around everyone but she is fine now.

this is zeke a neighbor found him when he was about two days old. she called me and i feed him by bottle until he was ready to eat on his own. of course i will not be parted from him now.

this is zeke when he first got here.

Nico is a big old boy, he's probably about 5 times the size of my ginger cat Tiggy!

my mom found minx outside of her house when our kittens were three months old. she has athsma and wasn't able to keep her. i told skip what is the difference between six or seven cats and so she came here too.

sorry i was interupted here is voodoo and angie. they are the parents of nico, pagan, demon, and isis. they were our first two cats. see i didn't know that cats could get pregnant before six months old, surprise they can. after they were born we couldn't part with them so they are all still here.

You need to resize them to less than 30kb.  If you use XP there is a great resizing tool, once you have downloaded it (takes 30 secs) you right click on the picture you want and resize - dead easy. Resizing a pic then takes about 2 seconds.

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/xppowertoys.mspx

It's the 11th one down on the right hand side - Image resize.
Once installed right click on the photo you want to resize.
Select resize pictures
Select advanced
Select custom
Put in 400 by 300 (sometimes you have to put in smaller figures if it is still too big).
Click ok and it makes a custom photo ready for uploading
