Hi everyone, Silviu here, I missed the intro...
47 yo, male, originally from Romania, lived in a few other places in the world, currently in Spain. We've got Zeezee, a sweet stray cat I adopted 7 years ago in the desert. Technically an Arabian Mao but who knows? She still gets beaten by the stray cats here whenever she ventures outside. To the point that I wake up at 5 AM to check out the garden for any intruders... Of course, Zeezee changes her mind in the meantime so I do the same 5 minutes later.
