Thanks for the tips guys - and Peaches
All of our cats (I have 2 - my mother adopted 2 of mine that they decided they wanted to stay at Grandma's house - lol) are rescues. We lucked out and our first one was a Maine Coon - he's over 19 pounds now. He loves dogs - hates cats. Weird creature. And the kids LONG to walk a dog and have a fuzzy member of the family who wants to curl up by the fireplace with them.
I will definitely check out the breed rescues that you recommended and start searching PetFinder.com again - that's a great link - we found our little tabby there 2 years ago.
Thank you! I may be coming back in for more advice now that I know there are lots of animal lovers in here.
