I have a 3 year old White Angora with amber eyes, named Simon. He is just the most beautiful cat . Does anyone else own this breed and admire it as much as I do? Care to share thoughts,experiences?

**tacos** , since you’re new here, I believe this is **QuickSilver** ’s way of asking for a link to a picture of Simon; it’s a tradition in cat threads around here.

Actually, I was preparing to debate the OP when the post was in GD. Now, I’ll just settle for the pics. 🙂

Umm, what did I do wrong, start this thread in the wrong forum? Sorry if I’m kind of a dumb as, new to this community. Also, is there an easier way to post photos?

This board isn’t set up for photos. It was a decision by the administrators. The issue is periodically debated, but I personally like it this way - faster loads, less cluttered look, etc.
