About Cat Lovers Only,
Cats, You, and Me!

Information about cat lovers only is offered here to give you just a little insight into the "behind the scenes" of the web site and its author. Very obviously, this web site is all about information on cats, and little else.

I also consider myself to be the cat lover's cat lover!

As you can probably tell, I have a strong passion for cats. No kidding, right?

For more than 12 years, my cats have been valued members of my family. Although I have always been fascinated by cats, I couldn't really call myself a cat lover. Maybe "cat curious." After I met Priscilla I was hooked! When Teddie and Frankie came along, forget it. I was done (as if I wasn't already with just Priscilla). These three very special cats turned me into a true cat lover.

I also have a passion for music, computers, the Internet, learning and coaching others on what I've learned, and making people laugh. I hope you enjoy my site and find it useful.

It's been said by some that the Internet is little more than a "collection of pictures of people's cats." When I started this site, I kept that firmly in mind. I didn't want to be just another me too site. I hardly added any pictures to the site at all in first few years.

Now that the site has a substantial number of pages dedicated to information on cats, it's time to add cat pictures. In fact, you can now add some of your own funny cat pictures.

Above is a picture of my oldest cat, Priscilla (the queen). She is claiming to be the real author of these web pages. I will not argue with her since she is always right. You can read more about my cats here, and see some funny cat pictures here.

Frankie (above) is playing my drums, and Teddie (below) is Basket Cat!

On a more serious note, please make sure that you verify any information you get about cats from any source. Often, the situation with your cat will be slightly different from others. Your best source of information is your veterinarian, and you should always contact the vet with questions or concerns about your cat.

The above seems obvious, but I have actually had people email me about emergencies with cats. I cannot dispense medical advice about your cat.

It is my hope that in reading the information on this web site, that you can take away something useful...

perhaps something that you didn't know...

or maybe a different perspective on a topic involving cats...

or, confirmation of something that you thought you knew about cats but weren't sure.

I've found it somewhat frustrating that there seems to be so much conflicting information regarding the care of cats, and their health and behavior. Unfortunately, veterinarians are very busy people, and we often don't know what questions to ask. It's difficult to sort it all out.

With that in mind, I usually try to give you more than one point of view on a topic. I've also tried to give you enough background information and references so that you can determine which point of view, if any, applies to your situation.

I realize that your cat knows the answer to any question you may have, but she won't tell you!

Thanks again for visiting.

P.S. Please tell me what you'd like to see more of on my site by using the contact form. Feel free to use it to make a suggestion, ask a question, or just say "Hi!" as well. Unfortunately, I cannot dispense medical advice about your cat. Please contact a qualified veterinarian.

P.P.S. I'm just a cat lover, sharing what I've learned with other cat lovers, and I've turned that into a successful website. If you're an animal lover, or you have a hobby, or an interest or specialized knowledge of some kind, you can do it too. You don't have to have any prior knowledge of how to build a website in order to take advantage of the power of the Web and turn it into a business. Visit SiteSell.com for more information.
