Hi there,

Im from New Zealand and I have four cats:
Thomas (grey/apricot/white tabby)
Katie (grey/white bicolour)
Robbie (black stray)
Casper (tortiseshell stray)

Ive had Thomas and Katie since they were kittens they are nearly 5 years old. Robbie and Casper turned up seperately over a number of years.

Im a research Scientist and live with my Husband, we've been married for 5 years.

I'm sure you'll find that everyone here is friendly and almost like an extended family.

[kiwicat]

Hahahaha! I know what you mean. My boyfriend said, "Wow, a whole forum filled with people like you!" It's also a great way to get answers to your paranoid questions so you don't have to call your vet everyday heh.

Welcome! I would love to visit NZ someday. I have a friend from there, she is from the north where it gets very hot. My other friend also just returned from there after a year and she loved it. We get a lot of NZ tourists in Banff, Canada, where I'm from and they tend to convince a lot of Canadians to visit NZ, hehe. I also love the scenes in Lord of the Rings...beautiful!

Good day,
tanyuh

Im from the South Island, where at the moment is very cold and theres snow on the hills around here. Both the cats and I hate winter unless the fire is going.

 

[tanyuh]

OOH KIWI!! I would give anything for snow!!!! It is 92F here (about 32-34C) with a heat index of 100F!! (About what, 38C??) IT IS HOT AND HUMID! And some genius left a 2 yr old in a van all freakin day and she died. Nice eh? -sigh-

mmmmmm warmth, that would be nice. our house is so cold im sitting in a sleeping bag watching tv. My cat thomas is in it too. Its sad to hear about the 2 year old, some parents dont deserve to be. I see you mentioned tanyah that you are doing research. what kind?
