Looking for cats to join our community (pictures! :D )
Hi there,
One week ago a new cat community was brought into life, Cats Around The Globe. Its a place where we will build a collection of articles on cats, ranging from health, behavior, fun to everything else! We are still looking for cats to be added to our profile pages, a unique page dedicated to your cat(s). Its free and easy, no registration and no spam. Just a fair place to share with other cat guardians. We're also looking for guest-blogger, contributers, or people who want to participate in any way. I'm new to google groups so im not sure if this is the right place for this appeal, but a friend suggest this to get in touch with cat lovers! The website is www.catsaroundtheglobe.com Hope to see you soon ErWin |

... Hi there, One week ago a new cat community was brought into life ... snip suspected SPAM Well, apologies if this really is a web site about cats, but somehow I doubt it. A Google Groups search shows only one post from this user, on any Group. A Whois lookup on the domain reveals the registrant is an "E Smeets", in the Netherlands - and they own "...about 5 other domains". Further investigation shows they own ten other domains, and have done so since at least 2008 Someone with the knowledge of how to register web addresses is very unlikely to be "new to google groups". The absence of the upper case letters for Google Groups is also suspicious. -- MatSav |

I'm a freelance webdesigner, so your research is correct The website has just launched like i said in the first post, just take a look at the website if you don't believe me. I dont know what else to say to convince you, i was hoping on getting some feedback and some submissions of cat pictures, but instead i get accused and judged suspicious. Too bad, was hoping google groups was something good but it does not look that way. Erwin. |

It does seem to be a valid webpage about cats. At least what I saw. They have a Facebook, Twitter, and ... Well, not sure what the third icon is (RSS feed, maybe?), but I've seen it before... Don't think that it was SPAM. Just mho |

The website is www.catsaroundtheglobe.com I just checked this out - it's a cute site, just getting started. I know you'd like people to register, add cats and post, but I like to sit back and check out a site for a while before signing up. I have a few questions about the site: * I tried to log on as "guest" but it told me I had the wrong username and/or password. (First I put "guest" in the user name and nothing in the password box, and I got a "blank password" error. Second time, I logged in as "guest", password "guest". It didn't like that, either.) Could you say how to do this? * Can you post to forums as a guest? I wasn't logged on, but I did go to the forums and I found no way to post. * You don't have a "Contact Us" link, or if you do, I was unable to find it. * I noticed that all the cats were referred to as either a "queen" or a "tom". Does this mean they are being bred? Or are not neutered? In the US, the terms "queen" and "tom" are used only for unneutered cats, mostly among breeders. They don't simply mean "female" and "male". I don't know if that's a language issue (I'm assuming English isn't your first language) or just a different situation. We have a huge overpopulation of cats in the US and it's considered to be very irresponsible not to neuter your pets. I don't know what the situation is in the Netherlands or Belgium, but I thought I'd just comment on the terminology - we don't call the average, neutered house pet a queen or a tom. (Australians, Brits, Canadians, etc: is that true for you, too?) -- Joyce May the great galactic kitten always purr you to sleep. |

(Australians, Brits, Canadians, etc: is that true for you, too?) -- Joyce May the great galactic kitten always purr you to sleep. Hi Joyce, Thank you for your feedback, here's my answers: -GUEST-LOGIN QUESTION you can not login as guest, if you want to log in you can create an account by clicking the register link. But if you want to submit a cat, you dont have to register, Its optional. If you register, you will get an account that you can also use to submit cats and get an email whenever someone leaves a comment on your cat's profile page. -POST TO FORUM AS GUEST QUESTION since there is no guest option, if you want to post to forums you will need to register first. reading can be done without registration off course -CONTACT QUESTION you can find the contact information and contact forum via the page SUPPORT and subpage CONTACT -TOM/QUEEN QUESTION this is a good one, i was under the assumption that thoses were the official terms for a male or female cat. I am also pro neutering, and two days ago published a post on neutering. i will change the terms, i will just put in male and female. And yes, in the Netherlands there is an overpopulation of cats too, unfortunately. I hope to see you submit you cat thanks for your feedback Erwin |
