Just wondering what everyone User Name stands for?
Mine is my nickname that almost everyone calls me. When I was little, my family called me Shelly and I totally dreaded it! I don't know why I hate it so much. There are still some people who knew me from when I was little that still call me Shelly, but each time I just grit my teeth & smile. My family knows better than to call me that...so thats when they shortened it to Shell

So, what about your user name?

My boyfriend said if we ever got a cat that he wanted to name it Big Kat after the candy bar (a super size Kit Kat that the company labeled "Big Kat"). I didn't think we'd ever get a kitty so I said sure. Then we end up rescuing Pepper and I couldn't bring myself to name him Big Kat so I said no! But in tribute to the name I thought I'd use it when I joined TCS to find out how to take care of Pepper, as he is my first cat.

Name plus favorite number. I've liked the #25 since the 3rd grade. It's a really long story.

Valan is the name of my protagonist in the one novel I wrote when I was in college. Yes it was a full length novel, no I never even shopped it to be published. As soon as I finished it I hated it. It was too predictible, the characters are one dimensional, and it was pretty shallow. I planned to re-write it, just never got around to it. Oh, and it is a vampire book.


HB are my initials, so I'm valanhb!

Hissy was my very first feral kitten. All hiss and claws when she was tiny grew up to be a very beautiful and loving cat.

I hope grant stops hissing and bitting and becomes a loving cat
he hasn't been hissing as much...and I don't know about the bitting because i'm not taking any chances with that!

thh is short for "the headless horse(woman)", a nickname my friends came up with for me in high school, since I was always distracted thinking of horses!
and 20 is just a nice, round number I like.
