I am a newby so please be gentle. I live in Pomona California, and am owned by three cats. White Heart, Cleo, and Tommy.

White Heart was born on Mother's Day of 1998. She is a green eyed gray and white tuxedo female dictator with short soft fur, and is fond of fast food - as in food that is still moving. She refuses to stay indoors and actually spends more time at home when she is allowed free access to the outdoors than she spends at home when I attempt to keep her locked indoors, because she has esaping out down to a science and an artform. She knows how to open windows, she knows that I have to answer the door sometime, and she knows how to dart outside when I am carring in the groceries. She also has three other homes she visits on a regular basis where she is called by other names, Oreo, Little Tuffy, and Mousy Toungue. I know they say cats have 9 lives, I just happen to have one who is living at least 4 of them simultaniously.

Cleo is our greeter kitty, and not one person can leave this house without a substantial amount of her fur to remember her by. She comes when she is called and is usually waiting for me in the driveway when I come home, no matter who's car I come home in. Don't worry she is NO fool. She'll saunter into the rosebushes as a car aproaches. Cleo is a furry 12 pound tortioseshell bowling ball. She showed up on my front porch in the spring of 1999, and I REALLY tried to find her a home of her own, but I got no takers. So I decided to get her spayed before she presented me with kittens.#00$ later she was mine, for better or for worse. For a short fat cat she is fast, agile, and strong. Just try clipping her claws! She is a bit of a clown with a distinct voice that still sounds like a baby kitten, and big wide green eyes lined with black mascara. White heart thinks Cleo is a complete waste of fur, because while Whiteheart is an avid huntress, Cleo's idea of hunting is to corner some poor critter and mew at it till it dies laughing. She has yet to kill anything, not even a fly. Her favorite food is whatever I am eating at the moment, and her middle name is "Velcro" because she us usually parked on either me, or my husband.

Tommy II is our youngest cat that I addopted @ 8 weeks after our other red tabby named Tommy died from diabetes in March of 2007. Tommy II was born on St patricks day of 2007 He has the shortest, coarsest hair I have seen on a cat that actually still has hair. He is long and thin, with a long string tail, but still weighs in at 14 pounds. The lady cats want nothing to do with him. He's a bit on the wild side, and hides under the bed when there are visitors. But is sweet and loving. He's still sort of finding out where he fits in this cat'shold

As for myself I am a 51 year old born again Christian hausfrau, and artist who paints, draws, and makes ceramics. I specialize in painting cats on ceramics. I also spend WAY too much time at cheezburger.com making LOLcats I suspect there are otheres here who may also have that guilty pleasure.

Welcome to CW Renae and we hope you enjoy your visits here. I can't say that I recall anyone ever mentioning the cheezburger site but I guess there maybe someone out there who may own up to visiting or spending time there.
As for posting photos here, just go to the information area that is "pinned" at the top of the Cat Photos forum, it will explain the procedure, size etc.

Thank you. I knew you would be the one to ask.
I posted some of my best LOLcats in that thread, and it was so easy.

Hi Trish
Thank you for the welcome. I'm sure you already posted about your furkids but I would not know where to find it. Can you tell me moer about your Birmans, and how you got your DSH girl? Is she the gray one in your sig? I have a speacial fondness for gray cats especially Russian Blues even though White Heart, my gray and white tuxedo girl is my only gray cat at the moment, and I am at my limit, feline population wise.

Thank you for the welcome Liz,
I do think I will enjoy it her, It will be a while until I learn how to navigate it well, and I don't think I will ever read all the posts, but so far I like it here.
