Egyptian Mau and Bengal. Both beautiful breeds.

It's just a shame there are so few Mau catteties in Australia, and the ones I've found don't breed often or are too far away.
I love Bengals. They're gorgeous

Ah, no pure bred cats for me. I'm all about shelter pets. But I love how Mau cats and Bengals look.

I love shelter cats - my cat is a shelter baby - but I do love my purebreds. The dangers with shelters is I want to adopt them all! XD

You've had Maine Coons for longer than I've been alive, wow. Six cats at once! How did you manage?
I'd love an Egyptian Mau when I'm older, or a Bengal. LOL I'm old remember? Yep in the mid 90s I had six cats-Mandee, a blue-cream tortie part Russian Blue, Khan my brown tabby Maine Coon, Indy a brown tabby and white Maine Coon, Warlocke a black smoke Maine Coon, Phantom a dark silver tabby DSH of Siamese ancestry, and Munchkin a brown tabby short legged cat. It was crazy but we managed. All of them are gone now, as is my big Kai. Now I will have four and that is my limit at my age now LOL (Hard to wrap around the thought that I will be 60 in March)
Egyptian Maus and Bengas are just beautiful cats!

Ah, no pure bred cats for me. I'm all about shelter pets. But I love how Mau cats and Bengals look. I love both. Khan and Demon were actually Maine Coons we rescued from shelters. Backyard breeders. . . .
Then Phantom was brn next door to my neighbor's ex;s cat. Orion was a 2 month old stray kitten that walked right up to m niece and we took him in. Munchkin wandered into the area with another cat we think was his brother. We took Munchkin is. Mandee we adopted from a lady who rescued stray cats. Then Indy, Warlocke, Kai, Darwin, Abby and soon Jaja came from reputable breeders.

Wow, I love this. After reading your book I know who all those cats are. XD It's like hearing about old friends. Which is odd. You hear all about them in your book and then they get talked about.

XD
When we got our cat, I was adamant he had to be a rescue, even though the nearest RSPCA was over an hour away from where we live! his litter had been found on the side of the road, and I can't believe someone would abandon kittens who weren't even 8 weeks old. All the kittens found new homes, though, so thats good.
Woah, that is a lot of cats!
*sigh* Backyard breeders are so troublesome. When I was working up at the vet clinic, we'd sometimes have people bring up kittens that they'd found, and those poor babies were always so frightened. We'd make sure they were ok, then send them down to a locally owned shelter. Reputable breeders are good, though.

I'm so glad you read it and liked it! Just amazing to me how much time has passed since Khan passed away. Phantom lived to be 16 and was best buddies with Kai up until he died in 2007.
We lost Warlocke in 2012. I based Smokewind on him.
I hope I can write Kais story along with others. . .so much to write and not enough time!

Yah. I loved the book. 16 is a very good age for a cat. O.O I loved Warlocke in the book. Nice to know that he got to live on in your fan fiction. Words of wisdom. So much to write...

I still miss them all. Warlocke was tall and lean like Smokewind. It is funny as Abby matures she has many of the same little quirks as he did and sometimes, in a dark room, when she does those things its like seeing a ghost! She also has a few Phantom quirks-like being a pig cat. . .she'll eat almost anything!

Ahhh! It's so cool to hear about the cats that appeared in your story, Phantom! :'D <3 Maine Coons are a wonderful breed.
Bengals & Egyptian Mau's are gorgeous.
I myself love Turkish Angoras, Norwegion Forest Cats (which is what I imagine most of the CotV cats to be/look like), and Nebelungs.

Norwegion Forest Cats! Love that breed. Also, I have an OC that's a Turkish Angoras I believe. Skyfire possibly.

OOoh, Norwegian forest cats would make excellent Valley cats! As would Siberians. They're all so fluffy! I've never heard of Nebelungs before, though, I'll have to look them up!
Also - Tuesday says hello! She's wondering how you're doing c:

Happy B-Day, Shadz. Also, I saw the new Curse website. Still exploring it, though.

Thanks, Mint. :'3 Yeah I was going to surprise you all but the minute I got it done I was so tired I just slapped it in my status and was going to let you all see it for yourselves haha. BUT YES THE CLANS OF THE VALLEY SERIES HAS AN OFFICIAL WEBSITE NOW OMG As well as The Forest of Kalmera series but that's still very much underwritten compared to CotV. ALSO THIS IS IMPORTANT: Clans of the Valley has now been re-named for the human version!!! FATE OF FIRE Fate of Fire series r FoF is the new term when referring to the original work. NOT the fan-fiction. What do you guys think? And for those of you who just want to see more of this fan-fiction, I swear, I've been working on it, but motivation is scarce when you got to save it for college.Not to mention that staying up late to write hasn't been good for my sleeping pattern. ;-; BUT DO NOT FEAR. I have some days off coming up soon and ONE WAY OR ANOTHER CURSE WILL BE FILLED IN AND COMPLETED. I literally have a sticky note on my wall right next to my bead that says: GET CURSE DONE THEN SLEEP SLEEP FOREVERLol x'D

XD That stick-note! I love it. Fate of Fire sounds like a really cool name. (Though I'm probably going to start calling it Curse: Fate of Fire.) The names just go so well together I think of it as a alternate name for Curse. I've fully explored the website by now and am really looking forward to the future of it. It is so pretty! And the summaries and playlist... I can go on, but it would spoil it for every other Curse fan.

Oh, by the way, how I found it was because I was so bored I looked in Users Birthday's Today to see if anyone I knew needed to be wished a happy birthday. You were listed and I went to your profile to find the Curse topic and saw the website URL. So excited I looked at it between wishing you a happy b-day.

Hey Shadz! Good to see you!
Firstly - happy birthday! Wow, I can't believe you're so much older than me XD But hooray for being a legal adult!
I am working on a present for you - I've been working on it since the end of January, but school work has severely impacted my ability to finish things, but I'll have it up before next week for you!
Secondly - congrats on your website! It looks great! You must feel so proud! I've been poking around and it looks fantastic, and great on mobile browsers, too! I'm so pleased for you! I love the new name, too. It really fits right in with the overall tone of the series and rolls off the tongue really nicely. I can't wait to see where you go with it, and I'm as eager for the next fan fiction chapter as ever XD Seriously though, please sleep. Don't run yourself into the ground D:
Question - will we be able to read the books on your website eventually?
(I'm kind of neglecting my own stuff at the moment, oops. I really must get back to that, but school and webcomics don't always mix O.o)

Happy, happy birthday to you, Shadz!! I just realized that need to make you a present. If my projects stop being a pain, then I'll try to draw something. Beautiful website. I'm really hyped for its future, as well as the rest of the story~ Don't push yourself, though; take all the time you need!
Curse: Fate of Fire. Love it. <33 If I could make this a movie, I would. X'D

Almost like the series should just be called Curse and then the book itself is called Fate of Fire lol But that wouldn't make too much sense. o.o Haha, thank you, Mint. The wix website is way more than I expected. Even though I don't have my own domain/website name, it's still free!! And it's easy to navigate.

I'm the legal 21 year old now lol. It really doesn't feel like it. Aw, Dingo. You know you don't have to! You gotta remind me of when your b-day is so I can make you something too. <3 Take your time, I won't be going anywhere. THANK YOU! ^.^' I also have a blog going as well. You can find it at the top of the home page where all the other tabs are. I'll be trying to update that weekly. And I'll try my best, but it's so hard to put the computer away Dx Well I still kinda want to self-publish and make some money off of them. But I am very tempted to post the stories (or at least finished short stories) on the website. I will be adding in-depth information on both series such as what the worlds are like and profiles for the characters. x'D

We're never online at the same time at the moment
I bet! Sometimes I struggle to remember that I'm turning 18 this year. Its kinda scary, how fast time goes sometimes. I mean, it feels like yesterday I left primary school.
Don't be silly - I love drawing Curse stuff! It's coming along nicely, so it shall appear soon! It's the 13th of August c:
YOU'RE WELCOME! I saw the blog this morning! I'll look forward to reading your updates! I sent the link to Tuesday as well, and she's happy for you too. She says it looks clean and professional c: Man, do I understand XD
Hmm, yeah, I see where you're going. You could always meet halfway and just post the first chapters or teasers online for people to read if you don't want to post the full story. Aw yes, in depth information! I can't wait to read it!
I'm definitely going to give myself some time to draw tomorrow though, so hopefully I'll have a few sketches to post.
