Hello everyone,

My name is Shelley and I have 2 gorgeous Persian girl cats. The one Lily is a tortoise shell color with beautiful bear like eyes, and Rosie who is red/ginger and white with little bits of black. They are sisters and extremely close, they are inseparable, Lily however is very sick she has a congenital heart disease. I am not sure whether I have the right name for it, but she has the worst one you could get and the vet thinks she only has months to live. Lily is on tablets to help her, and my family and I take it a day at a time, we love and enjoy her and worship her and her sister as does our German shepherd, and golden retriever puppy!

I would love to hear from anyone, to talk, make friends, any tips on care or even to share a story like Lily's!

Thanks for your time.

Hey,

Thank you for responding this is my first time really getting to know people on line, so I feel great to get to know new friends! Thanks for the lily comment, that means a lot to hear, if you have any advice on anything, I would love to hear! I am a big believer in exercising animals brains and personalities, I am looking for games or toys that will make them think, they are house cats, as my gorgeous cat before them, tasha, was severely hurt outside, twice. We live out in the country with wild animals around all the time, so they are kept in, we bought them as house cats anyway. I always feel guilty keeping them in, but it is for their  safety so I would like to get their minds working, they are intelligent cats and I think they deserve to use them. In terms of pictures, I have a load of them on my mums phone so I will have to get them put on my laptop and put them up! I do have a picture of my beloved tasha I lost her about 2 years ago, tragically, she died a horrible death, her legs went she couldnt eat, drink she just slept, so we put her in her bed and carried her everywhere, so she was not on her own, that night I lost her, but a least she is in peace. So I will put a picture up of her, as she is stunning!

I'm so sorry you lost Tasha, no one knows the incredible pain of losing a furbaby until you have. I'm also sorry to hear about your other baby,Lily. I'm sure you'll get in touch with many who have gone through the same heart condition, maybe you'll even find out the latest treatments available.  In the meantime I will pray for her (and you). Welcome to the cat site, we'll help you through whatever you have to go through.
