The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

Ask me anything

Your avatar looks familiar, but I can't put my finger on it. What's it of?

@Ptyra: Unfortunately no, but I am glad we have more fans! ^^

@Alex: It's one of the avatars invisionfree provides, it's just a place holder avatar for now, since I can't really seem to find an avatar that just "fits". :p

I never listened to him actually. I think he's a rapper though, and if he is, I really don't listen to rap. I find a lot of it to be very degrading. :p

So, my family's boy cat is one of those "biting" cats, but lately he's been biting lots less and becoming sweeter. I don't think it's an age thing because he's about four years old. Do you have any ideas about what's going on?

@Alex: Ugh...I hate it. >_> I know it's good for you and all...but I loathe the dressings...

@Ptyra: Well, I have a three year old (He turned 3 today actually ^^) and he can nip at times, but he's calmed down as he has become older.

Believe it or not, I think your youngin' is growing out of biting, just reading the info you gave. :)

Do Funcat and/or Gypsy spend a lot of time outside, or are they indoor cats?

By the way, pass my birthday greetings on to Gypsy. :birthday

Yes, tell your cat I said happy birthday.

You don't like salad. I always saw you as the 'salad' type.

Have you ever had a fish tank?

Thanks for the birthday wishes for my little guy everyone! :D

Nah, they have to be indoor cats, because it's so dangerous where I live for cats to be outside. :p

Gypsy loves both, he LOVES to tear paper up and loves to play in boxes or bags to hide. ^^

Funcat I don't think is one to like paper, but he likes to hide in boxes, hehe. :D

When I was a little tyke, yes, had a few gold fish, neon fish, and an alaege eater. They actually lived to be pretty old fish, one of the gold fish and the alaege eater living the longest. :)

He doesn't like to lick the paper does he?  Mozart does that...before tearing it up into little pieces of course.  

How old where you when you watched the Lion King?

Do either of them ever try to get outside? If so, have they ever gotten far, and how do you stop them?

More or less, I'm asking you for advice on how to keep Sasquatch from becoming too much of an outdoor enthusiast. :p

You could always drug him with catnip.;)

Do Funcat and Gypsy like to command attention 24/7 or is it just my cat?:lol:

When Funcat was younger, he would try to go outside, but since he's older, he has less energy and doesn't really try to go out.

Gypsy is a travel kitty, so he doesn't mind the outdoors, but he doesn't really try to escape to go outside.

I guess the advice I would give you for Sasquatch(awesome name btw) is to really play with him a lot. He sounds like a very energetic kitty, like my little guy. :3 Or maybe you can train him to walk him if you and your fam have the time and patience for it. :yes I must say I don't have Gypsy outside walking a lot, but when I do, he enjoys it, until he hears cars and other loud noises. Poor guy. :(

Oh, they both are attention hogs. :P: Funcat cries for the attention and Gypsy usually rubs up against me so I can play or pay attention to him. The difference between the two is that Gypsy knows when I can't give him attention, but Funcat....he just persues until you give him the attention he wants.

Mozart cries to the extent that when he gets the attention he's happy.

Do they choose what they want for their dinner?  

Mozart rubs his head and nibbles the packet of food as in saying ''that is what I want.''

How long have you had them?  Have you had cats before?
