Welcome to The Cat Site! This is a very friendly and helpful site for anyone and everyone who shares the love of cats.
In order to make the beginning of your stay more pleasant, we have Mentors who can show you the ropes, answer your questions about the site including technical questions about posting and the always important questions about posting pictures of your beautiful cat(s). You will see these people here in New Cats on the Block and posting around the site, and can tell them by their Blue Ribbons.
You can ask for their assistance in two ways. You can post here and one of our mentors will contact you via Private Message, or when you see one of their posts just click on their username or the dot beside it and a drop down menu appears where you can Send a Private Message to them.
To access your Private Messages, look in the top right corner when you are signed in to the site. Underneath the "Welcome" there is a link, Private Messages. Beside it are the number of unread messages and the total number of messages you have. Just click on the link to check your messages. To reply to a message, click "Quote". (Please be aware, you do have to periodically clean out your PMs, as there are limits to the number of PMs you can have on the server which corresponds to the "level" of membership. Kittens (1-15 posts) can only have 10 PMs in their Inbox and Sent items.)
We hope you enjoy your time here at The Cat Site, and if you have any questions please feel free to ask!
