My names Joey. Mads is my cat. Diagnosed Jan 26.

Hobbies & obsessions include:
Having lots of hobbies & obsessions, rescue animals, needle felting, house plants, komodo dragons, photography, cycling, inline skating, collecting skate trainers, charity shopping, reading private eye & listening to LBC.

Hopeful to chat to people who get it and can help a little along the way.

Chat soon.

Welcome to WP! I hope you like it here.

And I hope Mads doesn't mind sharing you with us. (We used to have a cat who fell in love with me—and vice versa. She'd follow me around the house and loved to sit on or near me. And she clearly did not like sharing me with my bride...who already had the cat when we married. I miss that cat.)

Welcome to the Wrong Planet.

Just out of curiosity, what is an "LBC"?

Thanks everyone for the reply's - means a lot. Still navigating my way around this forums format etc. LBC is a talk radio station in the uk. Mads is fine she's in a cave i've built for her out of pillows. Life's tough when you're a cat.

Ahoy-hoy.

I was worried LBC was a microgenre I hadn't heard of. :lol:
