Hi we are new here

We were adopted by a pregnant feral cat 3 months ago. Owning a cat is a new thing for us. Our Old English Sheepdog died at 16 many years ago. I am interested in almost anything to do with cats. We are learning as we go. Maggie (the cat) has been spayed and vaccinated and is trying to adjust to life indoors. Maggie and Laurie

Hi Thanks for your welcome. I am sorry I don't know how to post photographs. I am barely computer literate. My husband does, I will ask him to show me. Maggie camped out on our deck for a long time before she would come inside. At the time she was spayed she had not, as far as we know spent a night inside. It has been a difficult adjustment for her and she will still slip away if the opportunity presents itself. Our Vet is surprised at how tame she has become. It seems like she wanted a different life. We love her already. Laurie

Welcome to the board, maggieandme! Sounds to me like Maggie is a very lucky kitty!

I hope you figure out the picture thing soon
