Why did you start writing your Web site?
Monday wanted her own website and Monday always gets what she wants :-) Seriously, I enjoy communicating with others through creative projects... photos, stories, artwork... and I love life in cyberspace so how could I NOT start a website?!
WHY do you write a site about your pets?
Cats inspire me, Monday especially.

Do you and/or others in your family communicate with readers of your site?
Yes, through the forum, guestbooks and e-mail.
How much email feedback to you recieve from your site? Is it mainly positive or negative?
Mostly positive. I've found that websurfers are generally a friendly, openminded lot :-)
Have you met any new friends because of the site?
many!
Do your friends and family know you keep this site/read it? If so have you had any really negative experiences as a result? If not why?
When I first set up this site, I was the only one in my offline circle of family and friends who had a homepage... or had any desire to have one, LOL! Most of them still haven't taken the cyberplunge but my husband John has ... he's built a wonderful site about solar house design and other environmental issues. I haven't really had any negative experiences but some of my friends and family think I'm a little, uh, eccentric for spending so much time on my site. But then they've always thought I was a little eccentric, LOL!bsp;
HOW has your Web site benefited you? Your friends? Or total strangers?
It's been a wonderful creative outlet for me and has brought a lot of new friends into my life. And it's especially rewarding to receive letters from fellow cat lovers who were helped by our healing circle or inspired to adopt a cat of their own, get involved with animal welfare issues, or build a tribute page for their own beloved pet.
