Samantha It's very nice to meet you. I hope you feel very welcome here and post often. We love to see kitty pictures! One good way of posting pictures is by using an internet site called imagestation.com. You can load your pictures onto there and then link them here. It's a lot better than attaching a file directly onto the site because it takes up a lot of 'space' (insert technical term here).

Hope to see your posts often

That sounds great! It sounds like we'll see lots of pics from you. I can't wait!

Sorry Sam, no chat rooms here, just posting boards.

BTW, (insert technical term here) = bandwidth.

Hey Sam!!! welcome aboard!!

I'm sure you will love it here...

Happy easter to you too, and Happy Passover... (that applies to some of us )

You probably saw the forum for breeders, which I'm sure you will find extremely helpful.

We'll be seeing you in future posts!!

Welcome Samantha! I love the international flavour of these boards, and seeing how, even though we live all over the world, our cat problems and joys are the same everywhere.

And if your question about Happy Passover was serious.......
It was the first day of Passover yesterday, and quite a few of our board members are Jewish, including at least two who are Israeli; our board "owner" Anne, and Nunny. Passover is an important Jewish holiday, the Easter story in the New Testament tells about Jesus visiting Jerusalem for Passover, so it always falls near Easter, but was celebrated long before Christianity.

Hello and welcome!

Passover goes back to when the Jewish people were held in captivity by Egypt. The last plague God caused (to persuade Egypt to release the Jewish people) was Passover. Each person was to sacrifice a lamb to God and then to put some of the blood of the lamb over the door of the house. Anyone who did not do this - their first born son would die. When the angel of death came - it passed over any home that had the blood on the door. The Pharaoh's on son died and he did not want anything to do with the Jewish people and allowed them to leave Egypt. What happened after is another story, but the Jews celebrate Passover because it was their liberation day from Egypt.

Welcome to the site Sam! Sounds like you're already about halfway to your very own Cat Site addiction! LOL Many of us here are full-fledged addicts and proud of it.

I'll move this over to New Cats on the Block for you, but you've already gotten quite a welcome here.

Oh, and there is a post at the top of New Cats called How to Post Pictures that gives pretty detailed instructions on how you can share your kitties with us.
