Yes I had a slight problem getting TCS to load yesterday also. It finally worked properly but I have problems with TCS many times as far as very slow loading.

I went on facebook - to: http://www.facebook.com/TheCatSite last night as a last resort - to try and get help, I was desperate


http://www.facebook.com/TheCatSite

and asked THE Question ---
Is the website down? I'm not able to open it.

yes, the server cycled off, and the owner explained this way:

TheCatSite.com Official Page
I just got up here on our side of the planet and sent out an urgent support ticket to our server admin. I hope we'll be up and running soon.

Ok - fixed. My apologies - I'll post a status message now.

I am sorry about the recent downtime. We're about to move servers real soon, and until we do, this old machine needs to be reboot every now and again

My apologies to those affected by the recent timeout - thank you for your patience!
I, like so many of us, began to have withdrawals not being able to get in to the forum, glad it was an "easy" fix!

That's funny, I was thinking to myself yesterday that a lot of people on this site would freak out enough to start their own facebook group or something to talk about cats during the down time.

TCS does have a facebook page. I'm not sure how many people use it since we're always on here.

I had the same problem. From about two pm yesterday until bedtime. This morning everything was okay and I got chance to sign on before church. I was having withdrawal.

I had the same problem, and checked to see if it was just me by going to http://www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com/ and checking... I was glad that it wasn't just me, but was worried that the site wouldn't be back up soon. I wanted to come on to fix a siggy that Naps For Cat's wanted me to edit, but luckily TCS is back! I didn't know that TCS had a facebook page, either. Good to know!

I guess I'd be in a world of hurt withdrawal wise if I couldn't access TCS at any given time since I don't do FaceBook.

I don't believe you have to be a Facebook member to be able to view comments on thecatsite Facebook page - only if you'd want to make a comment.

http://www.facebook.com/TheCatSite

I went there out of desperation.
I hoped I'd see some sort of "breaking news" about issues with thecatsite.com - and when there wasn't, I figured that posting an S.O.S. would bring some help - and it did.


If that hadn't worked, I was then going to go on Twitter.com - http://twitter.com/#!/thecatsite
to see if there was any info - and/or tweet an S.O.S. - yep, I was beginning withdrawal, for sure.
