Hi Everyone.
I've just registered on here as it looks like a good place for us pet owners. My name is Teri and I'm an author from London. I occasionally write freelance for newspapers/magazines. I also volunteer one day a week at a Cat Sanctuary.
I have two cats. My first cat Sox is 8 years old now and appeared in my garden as a kitten. She just wandered in and stayed. I guess she knew she was onto a good thing. She's a gorgeous tabby with white paws and feet. Her nickname by everyone is The Princess as she's so spoilt (and knows it) Then I have Vixen who is an ex-feral cat. She began living in my garden a few years ago. She's had alot of kittens over her life and one day when it was heavy snow I decided enough was enough and brought her inside. It took her a good few months to settle as a domestic cat. Both cats have chosen to be indoor cats now. They both just lost interest in going out and I'm not going to force them to go out if they don't want to.
I also have a two year old yellow Field Labrador called Phoenix who is a little nutter. There's never a dull moment in my house.
So that's my little summary, looking forward to meeting new people on here.
Teri.

Welcome to the forum! I have two cats and a puppy although I think one of the cats owns the lot of us.

They all look really lovely & suit their names. A Bombay feral - now that's a new one on me, I knew that more pedigree's were being abandoned now but bearing in mind what would be paid to get one in the first place ......!!!!!

Vixen (bombay feral) did previously have a home (used as a breeding cat) she was really mistreated there then they stopped caring and she became feral. Her old house is just round the corner, it took her a long time to trust humans and she'd been living wild for about 18 months when I eventually persuaded her to come inside.

How sad she should be badly treated after being used to breed from! Glad you've adopted her jezebel, she looks great as do all your pets.

Welcome to the forum. Well done for rescuing 2 lovely cats and giving them their forever homes. They are lovely cats - Phoenix the dog is lovely too. I'm Jenny and I have 7 cats and 2 dogs. My cats include 2 Maine Coons, a rescue feral kitten, an adopted young stray cat who was having kittens and I kept 2 of them and last but not least, an adopted stray tom cat. Love the names of your pets - I used to have a cat called Phoenix but ended up calling him Fifi!!
