Hello,
I just joined this site and want to say "Thank You!" as I have been reading this site for several months now.It's been a great help.
My story...I used to love, love, love cats when I was a girl. After that I never had cats and my love for them died...or so I thought. I I never had cats as an adult due to living circumstances and allergies. Now, many years later, and no more cat allergies, I am the proud "Mamma" of two 8 month old kitties, Marcellus and Wallace. We got them both from the Humane Society. Marcellus was born of a feral mother so is a wee bit shy, retiring, cautious and not at all cuddly. But he is sweet natured as long as you respect him. One definitely needs to be aware of his body language. We love him dearly. Wallace is totally the opposite, extremely active, into EVERYTHING, extremely agile, gentle, and into your face type of cat. And the thing is, they get along wonderfully. We got Macellus when he was 8 weeks old (I'm thinking he was taken from Momma too early, he was born in a garage) and we got Wallace 3 months later. They got along very well, very fast and they are buds. Marcellus really needed a friend and Wallace has brought out the best in Marcellus and it has been so fun and joyful to watch and "spoil" these two kitties. There are a couple of things that we have to work on, which I will ask about, but all in all, it's been absolutely wonderful. It's been fun too to see my family, my hubby and two teen boys, enjoy the kitties as well. We also have a dog, Corky whom amazingly, adjusted to the kitties faster than I ever imagined. So, thanks for everything and I will continue to enjoy this site!! "D" :-)
