We have two domestic short hair cats. They were both adopted from area shelters. Salinger is the girl. She's grey and white. Joey is the boy. He's silver grey. Joey thinks he is a dog and loves to chase his tail and play fetch. Sal is more cat like, but she always comes to greet us at the door when we get home.
Unexplained Infertility
After two Clomid cycles, three injectable IUI cycles, two IVFs, two miscarriages, and one lap surgery, IVF #2 has brought us our little boy!
TTC #2 After months of being postponed or cancelled, FET #1.3 (Natural FET) brought us twin girls!

HA HA! Mine greets me at the door too, my DH always says that he's not a cat, he's too dependent on me to be a cat. I ? them all though.
