I am new to the site, came here to get some insight on a kitten problem.

I (with a roommate) have 3 cats, 3 cockatiels and 4 fish. In a tiny 3 bedroom duplex lol.

The cats are:

Morpheus (3 year old bengal)
Ashe (1 year old traditional siamese bluepoint)
Jynx (10 week old black kitten...almost looks partly siamese)

(The rest of the family is:

Mr. Pretty Bird (yellow pied)
Ghost (white pied)
Mystic (ghost faced)

Goldy (big fantail goldfish)
Blackie (black and gold fantail goldfish, also huge)
Big Bob and Little Bob (2 plecostomus' who are now about the same size...))

Anyway, there's my introduction...my assistance request is in the appropriate forum.

A pleasure to make everyones aquaintance.

Welcome to TCS!

What an interesting name. After the mythological figure, or the psychological urge?

Hope you enjoy it here!

Thank you for the warm welcome.

Thanatos was actually already registered, but I often use the dagger in place of the second t.

I originally started using the name in 1985 (yep, online 21 years, starting with BBS') when I heard about a book called On A Pale Horse, by Piers Anthony was going to be published (and it was published about a year later). Of course, I was already familiar with Thanatos from Greek Mythology as God of Death.

The book itself was about a a nice guy who has a run of terrible luck and right when he is about to commit suicide, he sees Death coming to claim him and shoots him and kills him instead....then Fate appears and garbs him and tells him he must perform the Duties of Office as Death to the best of his abilities, or his soul will be forfeit. The Office of Death changes hands when the successor kills the predecessor.

He ended up writing 7 books about the Incarnations of Immortality (Death, Time, Fate, War, Nature, Evil & Good).

The whole thing just really resonated with me and I took name.

Captiva - Thank you so much for the offer...I've been an owner and operator of a vBulletin forum since version 1
I am intimately familiar with all the user and admin options (and plugins, etc). I sooooo understand how confusing it is for new people hehe
Thanks for the welcome PM.
