When my therapist asked me yesterday what I can think of that can make me feel calm and relaxed and peaceful. I thought,other than my parents and my cat "Angel", THE CAT SITE!
It actually does! I use it to feel tranquil and accepted. I don't have much else in my life but having you people here for me has given me a place to say, "I belong, I'm accepted, I can talk about 'anything I need to" and I'm guarenteed the next day you will be here for me.

I like your line about telling him to log on here. If I did, can you imagine, he'd be going for therapy himself after dealing with us voo-doo "CAT PEOPLE"!
This is so true. Here's a poem that was send to me by a friend in Australia - we corresponded for 20 years but sadly have lost touch in the last year or so. Apparently it was written by somebody called Edie Thomson and was published in the "English Woman's Weekly". It was written for paper correspondence but can apply in the cyber age too I think:
Of course you're my friend!!! I was NEVER upset with you at all, silly! I knew it was all in fun, honestly. Thank you so much for the kind words you said about me and my Juicy. I want you to know that I meant every word I said about being here whenever you need to talk!!! We're all friends here!!!Originally Posted by ccoccocats
Oh Lacey, I immediately broke down into tears when I saw YOUR feedback. Thank you so much for letting me know I can reach out to you, honestly. You're a very well-known and respected member on this site, and I am truly honored to be your cyber-friend!Love, Cheryl
Thank you too Juicy. You are truly model material. I hope you make it big. I'd vote for you anytime, anywhere. You'll always be a winner to me and my Mom. Love, Angel xoxo
I couldn't agree more, Cheryl! You know I'm right here for you anytime at all, and I'm just so thankful you're here for me, too!Originally Posted by ccoccocats

Even when we differ we still bounce right back to being there for each other. I said it before, we all fit in...and no one is left out! You don't get that just anywhere.
More of less what I'm trying to say is, Thank you to all the members of "THE CAT SITE" that has touched my life with your words and concerns and most of all love. I'd be lost without you!
Thanks so much. Us women are so mushy, right? Oh well I don't care. We express what we feel and that's good. Thanks also for that hug, I needed it!Originally Posted by dawnofsierra
