Hi Summer
Your pets sound lovely! Our cat is a blue cream persian and like the persians you used to have we think of her as our baby too! We have had 3 persians over the years - a pewter persian followed by a black persian cross and now our blue cream one - and they have all had very different personalities but with the same sweet temperaments.
Funnily enough I had never been a cat person previously. Not having grown up with cats I always thought they were too independent and I had originally wanted a dog, but this wasn't possible due to working hours. However, one of my work colleagues at the time had a couple of persians and the way she described their gentle natures and the fact that they are very people orientated and love to be with you, made me think I would like a cat after all.
Although we have tended to have persians I love moggies too and would still like a dog one day.

This is our first cat (see below) although I did grow up with them and have missed having cats ever since. I like to say that I had a cat shaped space on my lap as I always tended to sit with a cushion on it! (also hides the gut)
She is a blue burmese and is full of naughtiness and character, always wanting to know what I am doing.
I felt guilty that we did not give the children a pet before and I felt that we had to do it now really or they would all have left.
I'm quite scared of dogs and had a nasty experience when I was cornered by a snarling one as a child in a small, narrow lane on the way to school. The woman in charge of it told me that it was my fault, as it knew I was scared of it. I don't quite get that one!

Chatelaine, not sure what make of kitten "Snowy" was but he was absolutely beautiful, very noisy, talked all the time and was a back runner. We all had scratches up our legs and backs. I saw him a couple of weeks ago he is huge now.
Chilla, the dog is mine but the kitten is one of many I've fostered through work, got some fab pictures so will try and put a couple more on later now I've managed to do it, hopefully smaller than the last one.
Ruby is brilliant with the kittens, my own two cats are usually not too happy though.
