thank you, everyone i tell alwyas looks really amazed and they always ask why, it was pretty funny when i told this careers manager at school, she wasn't that helpful though. she suggested working in a circus, and gave me a leafle on an agricultural college becuase they do deplomas on animal care, like i said not great advice.
i just love tigers and cheetahs though, they're beautiful animals and i really respect them, i just hate how they're close to extinction becuase of us, so i want to help them survive, then i'll die knowing i've really helped alot, and i'll live my life doing what i love, what more could you ask for?

How did your interest start? Your careers manager sounds like she needs a careers manager. I have a little cat as a pet, and I love her to pieces. The bigger ones are so graceful.

My friend went to Africa on this conservation program where she works in a "park" with tigers, feeding the young ones and playing with them, and trying to prepare some of them to go back into the wild and stuff. She says it's really rewarding:) Good luck on your dream, it's a really noble dream to have! *takes off hat for you*

victoria, where does your friend work, do you know? raisng tigers in afrcia is really rare, but it would be great as i've always wanted to go to africa and tigers are my favourite large cat. and katrina, im not really sure why im into big cats, i just am. one day i woke up and relaised how interesting lions are, researched them, and then discovered how amazing most big cats are, im not really sure why i suddenly thought that, i'm sure there is something, i just dont know what it is, im just drawn to them, i know that sounds weird but its hard to explain. i have grown up with house cats all my life though, so im guessing that had something to do with it, i've got two at the moment. and a dog who's terrified of my youngest cat.

Hello everybody, I'm Kimberley and I'm 17 years old.
I've been writing since I was young but haven't really bothered to think about it seriously until this year. Right now I'm in the middle of planning what I hope to be a fantasy novel so I'm trying to get that all sorted. In the mean time I write fanfiction to brush up on my writing. Since this site is for your own fiction I'm glad I can finally get feedback on my own original ideas.
Looking forward to hearing more from you all!!!

I tried writing fanfiction for a time, but I was never satisfied, because I always felt as though I were missing out, because the characters weren't mine.

Hi, I'm Andrea and I'm 12 years old. Now, you probably wouldn't think that I was this age since I am very mature for my age and I don't consider myself a child any more. I have been writing creative stories all my life, but just recently took a liking to fanfiction (phantom of the opera fanfiction to be exact). I took a long break from writing my own stories, but just recently started an original fiction. I hope it develops into something I will be proud of, but as of now, I am not sure.
