Hello all! I am currently fostering the most loveable and affectionate cat I have ever seen. I wish I could keep her, but I do not have the time nor the money to give her what she deserves. I rescued her from a place that has some dogs who are quite unfriendly to cats. She loves to be around...
another voting for no children. At least I really don't want them now. I am 22 and I sure do have plenty of time to change my mind, but I have never had a desire to have children. Already some of my girl friends are talking about children. That's weird. OR, what it even worse! Both my mom and my...
one who is open to new people I suppose, and of course lovey (not to be interpreted as needy). The cat I used to have was very loving towards me, but would run away at the site or sound of someone new... or really anyone else other than me. While I am honored to have been his person, in the...
So, I hope to be adopting a cat in the near-ish future. In the past when I adopted my dog as a puppy I did my own variation of a personality test, it worked really well, but I think consistent training was also a key factor in how my dog developed. Anyway, I was wondering if there are any ways...
Yup! Horses have been the only thing to keep my interest for any significant period of time. I started riding when I was nine. Lost the support of my parents halfway through highschool so for the last 6 years I have been catching whatever rides I could, working in a barn whenever I can. I just...
I thought I would add my bio to the thread.
I am graduating from Appalachian State University on Sunday, May 7th. I am very excited about that. I am a Broadcasting Major and an Art minor (simply because I love art and wanted a creative outlet). I was the Sales Director and Station Manager over...
Middletown, than you for your very thoughtful posts. I will be calling around to get a feel for the shelters in my area (and pming TNR1). As I will only have one day off, and that one day to volunteer (unless volunteers can work after 6pm), I know that each week I would go back to see cats and...
thanks so much for your replies. I know it is a very touchy subject. If I were to work at a kill shelter it would only be too help the endangered animals be adopted, and maybe to somehow keep them alive longer. However, that may just be chasing a dream and I could see my heart being broken if it...
I am thinking about volunteering my time at a shelter while I adjust to my new work schedule and while I have no animals of my own. I think I have a need to care for some animal which is why I want to volunteer. Now I am wondering where my help would best be needed. Are kill shelters that way...
thank you everyone! I won't start my work until June 1st so it is/will be a hard wait. I am also thinking of volunteering my time with a shelter in the meantime (and longer) to help out the furry creatures.
