Hey all. New guy from Michigan here...

Hello everyone! I am a cat lover from Michigan who just moved down to the south for a bit. I am heading back to California though in a few weeks to do some work there! My name is Ryan and I currently have two cats back home who I miss terribly. My little guy Belmont is the one I miss more then anything though! I am 21 and a a bit of a quiet guy who loves to spend time reading, writing, hiking and camping. I am a little awkward socialy and my cats tended to be my best friends for a while. But now that I am traveling the country and seeing many things! I love it. I plan on going to Yellowstone next and want to do some serious hiking. I love science ficiton and fantasy and love to write about it as well. I hope to make some good friends here as I get a bit lonely in my travels and would love to talk to some fellow cat lovers!

Welcome to TCS!

(Translate: Hi and Welcome to TCS, Catulina and Milky say hello to you!!!... )

See you on the forums!

Hello Ryan, my name is John, welcome to the site

Hello Ryan and Welcome!! I know that you will make many friends here - and also, as you have read, we love kitty photos!
I believe that I may be one of the "older" (in real age ) members here and I can claim the dubious distinction of being in Yellowstone during their famous 1959 earthquake! I know you will enjoy your visit there - it really is spectacular country!
I look forward to kitty pictures!

Welcome to the site Ryan! As you can see, we're plenty talkative here so no need to feel alone in your travels! The monster in my siggy is Oliver (he's such a mama's boy), I've also got a black lab (my "little sister"), a tank of fish, a tank of hermit crabs and an aquatic frog! Have fun looking around and asking questions! There are all kinds of people, all ages from all over the world here! Better post some pics of those kitties soon - we get impatient to see new furry faces! lol
