She/he got too close        to the dog that is also featured in one of the albums. And.. the little        kitten was so friendly and yearned for company. It was devastating to        notice the little discarded body one day.                     >> I volunteer to maintain and do the postings.. ..It would be too tedius       >> to manage in html with all the frequent changes almost daily. But       >> wordpress makes it very easy.                     JK> That's good... and a lot of kitties and doggies to post information about,       JK> as I saw there :) Great site, btw :)              Thanks. It's still not bad for a site built in 2008. The fixed size is        not suitable for today's smartphones though. Today's term is "responsive"        for sites that adapt to smartphone and small tablet displays.                     JK> I usually just copy a similar entry to what I want to post, then change       JK> the details. I'm not a big fan of wordpress, but I can see why you'd want       JK> to use that method for a site that had so many updates.              I was not too excited about Wordpress in the beginning either. But it is        the concept of CMS (content management system) that makes sense when        posting and managing a lot of separate pieces. PLUS.. for a site like        that, it is nice to have older things like in the ADOPTED section to        automatically get deleted after a set time, instead of remembering to go        in to remove old stuff manually. Plus you can even post-date things, and        they show up automatically on the date you want. Plus other things!                     JK> Yes, I know what you mean there. I also checked out the dogs there ... My       JK> second love Lol... Since Indy, our yellow lab mix, had surgery last year       JK> to have a large cancerous tumor removed I worry about our two pups. But       JK> once removed, it didn't come back, the vet said if it did reappear he'd       JK> remove it again. So far, it's good.              Did you see the fine lab, Tucker in the adoption site? Great picture.       Not all pics that I receive are the same caliber though. :(                     JK> Speaking about weirdness in looks in the same litter, did you take a look       JK> at my two idiot dogs on my page, ? They couldn't look more different ...       JK> and again, from the same litter.              JK> Here's the link:       JK> http://www.filegate.net/gallery/pups/              Perpetual smiles on those faces.                      ../|ug              --- OpenXP 5.0.38        * Origin: Cats are the original laptops.
