Wow, she is pretty. I followed many of the links to other cat photos and
read some of the bios--I bookmarked your site for reading later. You have a
real knack for capturing cats' personalities in photos! Garfunkle's kitten
pic just kills me, as does Bobbcats, and Isis is lovely. Flashlight, in the
second photo, has a smile that made me laugh! I liked her story, too. Great
cats site, thanks for putting it together and sharing.

Wow, she is pretty.

Thank you -- I think so too. I am working on getting some more pictures
of her now that she is more relaxed -- I see her big white belly on a
regular basis and need to get a photo.

Catster is amazing and addictive -- it's not my site, anyone can create a
page for their cat(s) on it -- Rosalie is the only cat I have so that's
the only page I can claim any credit for. The links are to other cats who
asked to be her friends. Also there's a link to my dog Zoe's Dogster
page.

Oh, I see! Well thanks for introducing me to Catster, it is neat! Dogster
too. I live in Raleigh, NC, by the way, and get to VA on a regular basis as
I have family there.

Shaina picks up hers, that's on a long handle and carries it around
the apartment and follows us so that we play with her.

Rosalie loves that toy! When she first came to live with me and Zoe (the
dog), she was terrified of everything -- but I could lure her anywhere with
the Cat Charmer -- it was pretty funny -- obviously, the love of play
trumps fear every time!

I'm taking an animal behavior class right now, so I've been paying special
attention to my cat's behavior patterns. Cats are all so different! I think it
would be a fun experiment if people could pick one word to describe their cat
and post it here on the newsgroup. The trick is that you shouldn't read anybody
else's reply until you've picked a word. This will eliminate suggestion and
bias. I'm thinking/hoping that the words we pick will all be very different!

Have fun! My word will be in the next post.
