The Sassy Siamese
This purrsonality-plus puss is for all those who want a full-on relationship with a character cat. No shrinking violet, the Siamese both demands and provides extremely stimulating companionship.
Extraordinarily intelligent, inquisitive and resourceful, this life-in-the-fast-lane individual insists on participating in all facets of your daily activities. Siamese are particularly "helpful" - assisting with everything from reading the newspaper to doing the housework !
Impossible to ignore, this is a breed with a very definite opinion on just about everything - which it insists on sharing ! Here is a cat that just loves to chat. Although some Siamese are more talkative than others, with some having louder voices than others, all are accomplished conversationalists. So, whether it's discussing what's for dinner tonight or which T.V. programme to watch, this opinionated puss is sure to have something to say on the subject.
The dominant purrsonality and highly individualistic ways of this "cat
with attitude" means that on occasions it can be enchanting and
exasperating all at the same time. The popular song lyrics:-
"We are Siamese if you please,
We are Siamese if you don't please"
pretty well sums up their outlook on life. This is undoubtedly part
of the powerful attraction of these fascinating felines - being both
precocious prima donna and adoring soulmate all in the one purrsonable
package.
One thing is for sure. Life will never be dull with a sleek'n'sassy Siamese by your side. In fact, it's a bit like having a built-in entertainment unit in your home - with every day being "show-time" !
The breed's riotous repertoire of tricks can include anything from retrieving, sitting on your shoulder, or performing the high jump, through to playing hide-and-seek, going for walks with you or making up the most inventive of games. This life-of-the-party puss will certainly take you on a colourful roller-coaster ride, ensuring you are never lonely or bored.
Despite their sometimes willful ways, Siamese are steadfastly loyal - being totally devoted to their owners. They tend to mellow out as they get older, meaning that they are just as well suited to being close confidantes of the elderly as energetic playmates for the young. Male Siamese are often somewhat quieter than females.
Kittens are born white, with the darker colouring developing on the "points" - ears, face, tail and feet - from three to seven days of age. Eye colour is always a beautiful vivid blue. Looking like porcelain figurines, these cats are truly living, breathing works of art.
This breed's striking appearance, "in your face" personality, devoted disposition and companionable character ensures it has a legion of fans wherever it goes. For those who cherish individuality and self-expression in pets as well as people, the Siamese offers a deeply rewarding relationship.
In a nutshell, a very special feline friend for lovers of free spirits !
