Introducing myself

[Gingerjess]

Hi! I signed up for this forum yesterday and was approved today, thanks so much to the mods for letting me be a part of this group! I went ahead and read the rules, guidelines, and other topics for new members, definitely super helpful and informative.

I'm a college student, have 2 adorable cats, and have moved around most of my life. I love traveling and hope to make that a big factor in my career someday. I don't really know what else I should put here...are we able to post pics of our cats?
