I am here for Friends

About Me


please do not teach your children that animals are disposable. remember, pets are for life.

i had no idea i was an animal lover until four years ago when a cat accidentally came into my life and changed it forever. if you are interested in adding a pet to your family, please consider adopting a black dog or cat. they have a harder time finding permanent homes, which i don't understand. the only reason i brought home a second cat was that she is black. (then again, i'm a witch.) in england black cats are considered good luck. at any rate, worthy animals with tender hearts and love to give are in need of patient, devoted and loving human families. see www.caws.org for the faces and profiles of many such pets in need.

meow means love =^..^=

My Interests

i love animals... and friends, family, idaho, crosswords, wordplay, dancing, hooping, river rafting, laughing, hiking, leisurely biking, oral anthropology, hand-me-downs, domes, tai chi, psychic phenomena, photography, absurdity, cursing and, um, srapbooking

I'd like to meet:
