New Members Introductions

Welcome Monica

We are a great bunch of friendly people here, the animals near you are going to be a lot different than what we are used to and its great to have members from around the world.

Hi Monica (and to Sarah and Rob, who I missed when they joined)

Welcome to the boards. I hope you have a great time on here, and if you have any questions, just ask! We're happy to help.

As I haven't done my intro yet, here goes.

My name is Anne-Marie and I have a little dog called Millie (thats her in my avatar) she's an unusual one as she is a staffy cross yorkie (or a storky as i like to call her). She's going to be 5 this year. She is my first dog, as I grew up with a cat (from the age of 7 to 22) in that time we also had rabbits. I like in a little town in Northamptonshire, England.

My favourite wild animal is an elephant! I'm a huge supporter of The David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, we foster 3 eles and we will be fostering Maxwell the rhino this month too. I'm very excited as I shall be visiting the trust in September on my honeymoon before heading off on safari in the Masai Mara.

SM, good questions. I love all wild animals, but my favorite wild animals is Loin. I would like to have a dog. Dog is a really faithful animal.
Thanks for my welcome.

Hi, my name is Michaela (minnie coz she's 1 of my fav disney characters lol) I don't mind which name is used as I work with small children and get called by several versions of my name :)

I currently have 3 cats (technically my little brother's) which are from Cat Protection called Camilla, Poppy and Indi, 2 rabbits from RSPCA called Woody and Kizzy and a hamster who was up for adoption at Pets at Home after her first owner returned her called Frankie.

I've always had pets, mostly cats (we got 2 kittens and then they got bigger and kept having litters), a couple of dogs, rabbits, fish and my hamster.

I love animals, always have, and wanted to be a vet when I was little but my mum told me I might have to deal with spiders because people have them as pets and I freeze up when I see spiders-even little ones!

Didn't plan to write an essay so I will end it now x

Hi Minnie

Welcome to WAA. It sounds like you've got a huge family of furries - it would be lovely to see some photos of them all.

We've got two dogs so no cats or anything small and furry as they are large and not very cat friendly. A rescue retired Greyhound called Penny who's 10 now and a Rhodesian Ridgeback called Tamu who's 3 1/2.

Enjoy looking round the site, there's plenty of different threads and if you need any help please ask.

Looking forward to you joining in.

Hi Minnie

We can let you know where Pets Photos are posted on the Forum later. We've also had Dogs our last one was called Misty, who was a Boarder Collie, and she was a rescue Dog. Really glad you found us, and if you need any help finding or posting anything on the Forum please just shout, and one of us will help

Hi
Currently I haven't any pets due to losing my last cat, Ollie, a couple of months ago and being so upset at losing him that I haven't been able to get another. My main love is the big cats, mainly the tiger and last week I had the privilege to feed 4 tigers with goats milk and get within inches of them. I enjoy majority of wildlife and contribute to many wildlife good causes to try to make a little difference to their welfare when possible.

Hi Tigermilk
As Doogs said a few of us have lost Pets sadly over the last 12 Months both Cats, and Dogs. Its a really hard time getting over it, so we know how you feel, about Ollie.
My two favourite Big Cats are the Tiger, and Cheetah. I just love the power, and prescence the Tiger gives off, its such a magnificent Animal. How fantastic to get that close to Tigers, Is that thats why you chose your name ?. We have a Tiger Section on the Forum this is the link to it to save you looking

I hope you enjoy the Forum, if you need any help finding things on the Forum. putting pistures on, or where to post things just ask, and one of us will get back to you.
Looking forward to hearing more from you.

HI Tigermilk

Welcome to the forum, it's great to have you here with us. Sorry to hear about Ollie, the loss of a loved pet does hit hard doesn't it, we can all sympathise with you.
Were did you get to feed the Tigers? I Imagine that is an experience you will never forget, they are magical cats aren't they and my favourite too. If you have any other wildlife experiences we would love to hear about them.
Do join in where ever you want to on the threads, it is a very friendly forum and we always love to hear new views, thoughts and experiences and see other members pictures.
Again, welcome to WAA Tigermilk.

Hello Tigermilk to WAA

Great to have you with us and I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your cat Ollie, we all love our pets so much and the loss of one is hard to overcome.

Where did you get to feed these tigers, it sounds like a magical experience. I love all big cats but have never seen a tiger in the wild. My all time favourite has to be the leopard though.

Looking forward to hearing your views, ideas and thoughts. if you need any help with anything just ask.

Lai

Welcome to the Forum Tigermilk!

We have alot of topics relating to animals (and some that dont) on this forum so take your time and have a browse around. If there is something you would like to see and WAA do not have, let us know and we can sort it out for you.

Have Fun!

Hi everyone!
I joined the forum because of my love for African predators. My main animal interests are leopards, hyenas and lions. Leopards for their sheer adaptability and their reputation as ghosts. Since there is still so much to learn about these cats it draws me to them immensely. Hyenas and lions fascinate me because of their social living and the relationships between members in a group.
I live in the UK and i am currently studying for my BSc in Zoology. I have 4 dogs, numerous fish and a hamster.
Anything else you want to know can go ahead and ask :)

Hello Hyena Queen and welcome to WAA. Great that you found us. We've got lots of topics and subjects that we cover on the forum so hopefully you'll find some that interest you.

My passion also is Africa - especially leopards but all african wildlife. Hyenas are fascinating and very understated I always think, everyone's always interested in the big 5 which seems a shame when there are so many other amazing animals there.

We've two dogs at home - a rescue retired Greyhound called Penny and a Rhodesian Ridgeback called Tamu (I'm a huge Big Cat Diaries fan )

Looking forward to your posting and to hearing all about your pets - we've a section for photos so it would be lovely to see them all.
