Dec. 22, 2008 - Sagerat's Curious as a Cat Poll |
1. Why did you start a blog?
I love blogging, and have always had one on another site. I wanted to start one here, because I wanted to find other home school families that may have an interest in animals or animal rescue.
2. What did/do you hope to accomplish with your blogging?
I have not really had time to accomplish that goal yet.
3. Have you found that you don't post as much as you did when you started?
Oh yes, the more involved our family has gotten with animal rescue, the less time I seem to have for posting anything on any of my blogs. I am able to keep up with our photo blog much easier. http://www.flickr.com/photos/mycatranch/
4. If yes, why not?
Too involved in our animal rescue volunteer work to find the time to blog much anymore. A quick photo post to Flickr seems to be much easier lately.
5. How important are comments to you?
Comments are very important to me. It tells me that someone is actually reading my posts.
6. Do you ever find yourself wishing people would not always leave comments that agree with you?
Not really. While I really enjoy comments that agree with my post. I am open to any and all comments, as long as they are polite. Constructive criticism can also be good.
7. Do you comment on other people's blogs a lot, sometimes, or very little?
Not very much. I normally only post on someone else's blog if they have commented on mine, and if I also saw something I felt compelled to comment on.
8. What determines why you don't post a comment on someone else's blog?
If I don't feel I have anything to add to their post, I don't think to comment.
9. What determines why you do post a comment on someone else's blog?
When I like a post and want to encourage them. Or, if they are asking for advice and I feel I have something of value to contribute to the conversations.
10. Do you have more than one blog?
Yes, I do.
http://rambeaux.livejournal.com was my very first blog. I normally only have time to use the Flickr feature "post photo to LJ blog," rather then posting something original.
http://www.acadianahumane.org/catblogger/ is our official animal rescue blog. This one is run by our volunteer webmaster, and she does most of the blogging. I sometimes add an entry when I have time and something to share related to our rescue.
I also have blogs on MySpace, Blogger, and a few other places. But, I post at those even less then I do here.
11. Do you read random blogs either off of random blogger or friends lists?
When I have time I do. But, that is rare.
The poll questions came from Sagerat's Blog at http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/sagerats/635242/ as she is hosting a contest right now. |

80 cats at your place! Wow! That's incredible. I love cats, but I'm afraid the most we've every had at one time is 3. :-)
May God bless your work with these animals . . . |

Just wanted to say hello to another cat lover. We have rescued many pets . I have a few entries about them on my blog if you have a chance to check them out.

About Me
Homeschooling our three daughters and living in a rural area, has opened up the doors for teaching our kids about animal rescue and responsible pet care. Our oldest is now attending a local University on a full scholarship. All of our children have daily hands on experience in caring for the over 80 cats, several dogs, 1 rat, 6 rabbits, 2 ferrets, an iguana and 1 goat who reside with us. Some are permanent residents, most of the others are foster pets. All are loved very much. It has opened their eyes and hearts to the plight of unwanted pets, and the importance of spaying and neutering.
