i'm 29, single, no kids.. i have a cat named jake and he is utterly adorable, i don't know what i'd do without him... he's great at making me feel better when i feel low. he's 4 years old and he's my 3rd kitty. ^_^ i haven't had dogs as pets 'cause i like cat disposition more but i can understand why many people adore dogs. i have a very good friend who has a collie mix and he's just so fun. as to myself... i'm a melancholic so i take a lot of things close to heart and sometimes it causes me problems. but i try to work on myself. it's not always successful but.. i try. last but not least... i hope to meet a lot of interesting people here! ^_^
