I live in Indiana and have two cats that my 13 year old daughter adopted.

Mischief was found when he was six weeks old, taped in a box and thrown out in the park on a hundred degree Sunday two Julys ago. He's a striped cat, with white paws and chest.

Magic is the new cat, who just appeared on our front porch the day before Halloween this year. My daughter fed him, and that was that. The vet says he's about a year old. He's fluffy, mostly black, but has white paws and a white stripe like a skunk!

He's a problem, though, because he is very vocal and keeping us up at night. My husband is NOT a cat fan, so it's really hard right now. I have four kids all together who like cats, though, so he is outnumbered. My oldest daughter is 25 and has a home and cat of her own.

Looking forward to meeting lots of cat fans here, and sharing lots of advice and friendship.

Thanks for all the welcome messages! I'm in NW Indiana, near the intersection of Rt. 30 and 41, about 45 minutes from Chicago. Nice to see other Hoosier cat fans here!

Welcome fellow Hoosier!! I'm originally from Gary (not far from where you say you're from) but I'm now living in Boilermaker territory (West Lafayette, IN).

Welcome to The Cat Site, from another fellow Hoosier.
I know about where you live, as I have driven to Chicago on 30 many times!

I hope you like it here!
