I love siamese- had several growing up. Siamese- the appleheads anyway- are very talkative and affectionate. The more extreme looking varieties seem to be more high strung.
The one cat I got from a rescue, rather than MM’s back yard, is a very very sweet but neurotic fraidy-cat. He had been abused as a kitten and is still skittish 10 years later. But once he sees I am not going to beat him, he is extremely affectionate.
LECH- ok that makes sense – I wonder if that will happen to us in about 5 years or so. good luck!
M4L – I knowwwwwww Irvington NJ is crappy – I was just making sure he wasn’t moving THERE! – geesh
Rf: awww, my husband is allergic and I am not expecting him to take meds just for the sake of me having a cat – so I learned over the weekend that Siberian cats are mostly hypo-allergenic – so I might have to go to a breeder to get one.
Siamese are also hypoallergenic. There’s a terrific Siamese Rescue in Virginia who do a wonderful job of matching kittens/cats w/ households & transport them up here.
There’s a Siamese Rescue in NYC too but the people there are nutjobs.
For the righties: Will someone please tell Huckabee to shut up? He gave an interview repeatedly saying Obama grew up in Kenya, raised by his Kenyan father and grandfather. Absolutely false- this is yet one more reason why Huckabee doesn’t qualify as presidential material.
Gem, I have an extremely stupid and neurotic rescue cat. It makes up for my brilliant (well, not really but definitely above average) daughter! But she would just as soon trade the cat in for one that’s more fun.
Upchuckabee.
M4L- I am! I am!
