Avid cat lover all my life. I like to chat with each one I see on a lawn, or a drive way, or the street. If I could, I would have 10 cats. I love their personalities, their uniqueness, and their beauty. I have only one of my own, Clementine, who is my baby.

One must appreciate the Internet: when I first purchased my two parakeets, I said to myself, "self, you have two parakeets." But once I first read two books about them and then joined this group, I began to marvel at the developing relationship I was enjoying with respect to these two creatures...

I recently had to say goodbye to my friend of 19 years, Pluto.He was a little white poodle. Needless to say it was the hardest thing I've ever done but something good did come out of it. I found Henry,another little white poodle, at an animal sheter in Weld County, Colorado. He had been there over...
