Are there any good forums beside Tcs?
Yup. That's a pretty standard rule. IMO, it''s actually not very good netiquette to ask for recommendations on a forum for forums on the same topic
Most forums -- well, NONE that I participate in -- allow posting of info on forums for the same subject matter.
Thanks, LTS3, for the reminder.
TCS doesn't allow for posts that recommend other cat-related web sites:

Solicitations and Promotions -
There are plenty of good cat-related web sites out there
- Website promotion is not allowed, other than in a discreet link in your signature, or an ad in the marketplace forum. Linking outside the site is allowed where relevant, though we prefer to use the resources available on this site. Posts that are judged to be spammy in nature by the site team may get edited or deleted.
Members would have to send you a private message with the link unless they already have a link in their signature.
Are there any particular non-cat / pet topics that you are interested in finding a web site or forum for? Maybe for a hobby you have?
Normally, threads like this gets deleted because it falls under promotion. Always a good idea to check with the rules periodically -- they're in place to foster and support TCS' mission to provide a safe and friendly place for us cat owners.

Its one of the possible reasons, although not the strongest one. In fact, we sometimes do link to other good sites on specific info.Quick question why it against rules to recommended other cat-related sites? Is it because the site may haver inaccurated infomation or bad advice?
I agree. I've heard that there is another cat related forum out there but I've also heard that they aren't as welcoming as this one and there's a lot of very judgmental people on it. I'll pass on that thanks. I don't bother looking because I can't imagine that there's a better one out there than this.Honestly, The Cat Site has been my home for a long time now. I never even felt the urge to try to look at another cat related site.
I love TWOP!! My favorite part is the super snark that is reserved for all the reality shows. Yes. It really is taken to a new level and I can get lost in it for hours.
I have a (very) small cat forum, but it's really just some friends and we talk about everything, not just cats. It's very private and not open for new members.
I'm a member of a couple food-related forums, a television forum, and a couple other ones. There's a political-oriented forum that I like to read, more so than post. A Barefoot Contessa forum
A tv-related forum that I really loved was Television Without Pity. Those members took snark to a whole new level. The forums are gone now and I always thought it was a bit of a shame. I loved reading the recaps of show episodes....the reviewers seemed to put a lot of time and effort into their reviews. I'll never forget the "Lying Liars who Lie". I could spend a few hours there, just reading. A perfect time-waster.
For gardening and such and remodeling stuff, I like to check out GardenWeb. I'm not a member there, but enjoy reading.
