I'm a longtime animal lover, having grown up in a family that had numerous pets that were well loved and cared for -- and babied as well! :-) Over the years I've owned and given forever homes to cats, dogs, hamsters, guinea pigs, a dove, cockatiels, a gecko, a water dragon, two ducks, and a frog.

, she requires near-constant attention.<br><br>Until December 2012, Isis had a male companion named Osiris. He was a larger black cat, but also domestic shorthair. He was the opposite of Isis in that he was laid back and very Zen. Sadly, Osiris passed away and left Isis alone. We didn't think getting another cat would be a good idea, because it takes a long time for Isis to accept any other animal—especially another cat. It took her a long time to accept Osiris once we rescued in back in June 2002. I worried Isis would get sick or listless after her partner's death. Instead, she has done better than I expected. She's a mentally hardy cat with a strong temperament. <br><br>I'm not sure how many years Isis has left, but we will love her for as long as she sticks around. She's a tiny feline with a major personality. And while that personality is often bossy and annoying, it has also made her resilient in the face of change. In our house, Isis demands to be the queen – whether you want to accept it or not!){kind=link}
