Hi everyone!

[jdorr]

I recently (a year and a half ago) lost an 18 year old Shie Zho and an 18 year old Persian cat. They were members of the family for a long time and I still miss them very much.

On a brighter note, I received a gift a year ago of a miniature Doxi that is the sweetest dog I have ever seen.Of course I'm prejudiced. A month ago we abopted a 5 month old kitten. So much about animal care has changed over the years( I'm 62) that i have been doing a lot of research on the net. In the process, I found this forum and you all can help me supply the best care for my new family. I allready have a question on the food forum if anyone can take a look.

I also might be able to help someone if they need informstion on birds. I used to breed rare finches for the federal Finch Save Program.

Glad to be here!!
