I know we are all crazy for cats, but I'm wondering if anyone participates in more than one cat forum. I really enjoy this one, but just wonder how many more are available and how good they are with information. The only time I'm on the computer is when I'm reading something about cats. You know it's my favorite topic.

I have been on Catster, but the protocol of all posts supposedly being from the cats gets pretty tiresome in a hurry.

That's the reason I don't post on Catster anymore too


I'm most active on a Dutch cat forum, I'm a member of a second one that used to be very active but a lot of people left so now it's not that much fun anymore.

I'm on only one other cat board, but we're a pretty small group of very close friends. We've all met each other and are pretty close-knit. They're super people.

There's also a great food board that I participate on, several news forums, and some other community-type boards. All very nice people and we have a lot of fun.

I'm on one other cat board---a very small one. I think there are around 30 registered members, but only half a dozen of us post with any regularity. I think it's more of a friend site than a cat site.

I have some Catster pages, but haven't updated it since I got Nero, Hoshi, or Neko. So the three that live in my house dont have one
This is the only cat forum I'm on and love it

I am a forum on Cat channel, and have been on others. One was for Bengals but it disappear one day. I missed that one very much. I have been on others that disappear after awhile. So while this is the only active one I am on. I just joined a new community called Sling!. It is for people who need a Gluten free diet. I am looking forward to it. I have enjoyed this one. Over the years I have been a member of several Yahoo Chat groups.

Trapped in the catroom! ;o)
This is the only cat forum I found that I like and stuck with. I get in trouble at home because Ill get so wrapped up in reading stuff on here that time will fly and next thing you know 12 hrs went by with me doing nothing but being on here. :eek:) Bf may not like it but I LOVE it!!! I tried getting on a dog forum to get some advice and stuff with Franklin but the people on there were not as receptive or friendly as the ones on here. So I stick with TCS for everything with the cats, dog, and home stuff I need to vent about..Its the only place that ever made me happy and feel welcome!

I've been to a few others, and found this one to be the best IMO.

When I first joined here 5 years ago, MyRage was going through a pregnancy, and I was pretty uneducated about cats at that time. I was an active member of about 4 different places. This one has the nicest people, and the best info. I eventually stopped checking back at those other ones because people just didn't care like they did here. I find this one to be the best IMO
I had even forgotten about the other ones!! What were they called and what was my log ins? LoL

Be safe.

Oh, I would not like that at all, either.

I am addicted to pet forums and belong to six with varying levels of participation. (others have come and gone) The one I consider my " home" forum I have been a member of since 1998 and many of us are long standing friends there.

It's very interesting how each place has it's very own ambiance.

No, though technically I could post on the pethobbyist ones since I'm a member there on another forum.
I was a member of a couple reptile forums but one kept having technical issues and the other really didn't have anything I felt compelled to join in on very often. So I lost interest.

Oh heck you just posted what was to be my Sunday QOTD
I have others tho ready to post.

I go to one other cat forum, a baseball forum, the animal rescue forum where I click daily to feed shelter cats and dogs and that same site click for breast cancer to help give mammograms for the people who can't afford them. I also go to Free Rice, a forum where you answer questions and rice goes to help feed the poor. You really learn a lot on the forum because they tell you the answers.

I am a member of one other cat forum, and they helped me immensely when I was integrating 2 kittens into our household. I found, since it's a much smaller forum, I could get answers to my questions much quicker (finding the answers was quicker, is what I meant to say!)

Nope, I have done all the mum and baby sites though and the bitchiness and petty squabbling that went on was just horrendous so I stopped going on any !! My hubby joined a model train forum and I complained to him one night that I have nothing to do, he said well join a forum on what you love, so I did and I LOVE it here
you are all fantastic. xx

I belong to some sphynx yahoo lists and some sphynx forums also.
I was in a few other cat sites also but no one ever posted so I have not gone to them in months.
The yahoo lists can be very nasty.
I just joined Catster thanks to some members of this site but its not very good.
I also was in msn groups when they used to have them.

I'm not a member of any other cat forums, but I am also a member of an Australian Shepherd forum.

I lurked around another site first, but when I found this one, it was
. I also visit a lottery site, which has quite a few cat lovers given the quotes and avatars, but I am not on there frequently.
