Thread: My cat died yesterday

Good luck with finding one from the animal shelter. I always think it is nice to get a pet from there as you know you are giving a home that is needed rather than from a breeder who is only doing it for money.

Sorry.
You misunderstand me. I wasn't telling you to move on to bigger and better things i was merely advising how i turned the death of my cat into a positive thing by realising that lifes too short to be moping around.

As for the anti social cats. I have one and as long as you show affection on his terms it's fine and eventually the bad behavior lessens.

Hello Harrison and Buleste,

Buleste

I guess I misread your response, for a while I was rather confused about what you were trying to say but yes, after a couple of days I decided to move on though I miss Twizzel a lot.

I started to look for another cat and tried to pick up things again I was busy with before this happened.

I had participated in a contest on the No Mutants Allowed forum, writing a different background and explanation of what the Brotherhood was doing on the US East Coast rather than the explanation Bethesda gave.

Well I didn't get a place amongst the winners but I was one of the runner ups.
The judges liked my story ideas a lot but it was somewhat confusing for them, the original text was at least six pages but because the word limit of the competition was 1200 words a lot of editing had to be done to fit that.

It definitely has inspired me of trying such things more often in the future.

Congratulations on a job well done. Being one of the runner ups is impressive and it shows that you've done some good writing. I can also understand that it can be difficult handling a limit on the amount of words one can use. When studying at uni, this was always a challenge. Anyway, keep up the good work!
