Winter 2008

This year is over, and that's probably a relief for a lot of us. We hope that all our friends and your families of all species will have a much brighter new year, and that we'll be seeing you around on CatHobbyist! Happy Holidays to you all!

We also know that the holidays can be a rough time for some of us, especially if we've suffered the illness of loss of a beloved pet recently. That's why the Support Chats on our PetSupport.net site happen every single night of the year, including Christmas Eve, Christmas night, New Year's Eve, and New Year's night. The complete schedule is here, and absolutely no registration is required. Everyone who loves animals is welcome.

Although most of PetHobbyist.com's chats other than pet support will be cancelled for the holidays, we'll still be chatting on CatHobbyist, including on Christmas Eve, Christmas Night, New Year's Eve and New Year's Night from 9PM to 11 PM Eastern -- until Midnight ET on New Year's Eve. It's happening in Cat Care Central.

And we heard a rumor that those crazy kits of MeowChat would be chatting throughout the holidays, too! Stop by the MeowChat room and see what's going on in MeowChat Village!

Chanukah is a fun holiday for your family and friends to share. Lighting candles, frying latkes, using the food processor, knives, and other dangerous kitchen tools are all part of it as well as guests at your house who may not be cat friendly or savvy. Unfortunately, it can be a dangerous holiday for your cat. Since nobody likes calling the vet for emergency situations, here's the list for you to check twice!
