We are siamese, if you please...

I had to nip up to TED's today to get some food for Robbie. It's a very
quiet specialist cat clinic, and as well as your normal run-of-the-mill
moggies, he also deals with a lot of pedigree cats.

A lady was there with a litter of Siamese babies. She breeds and shows
Siamese, and the 12 week old babies were coming in for their shots
before going onto their new homes.

We started talking about the babies, and how beautiful they were with
their big blue eyes and brown noses. Then we heard, "YOWWWWL". So we
looked down. 6 babies looked back innocently. We carried on talking.. I
heard three voices go "YEEOOOWWWWL" together. So we did what good slaves
should do and we started scritching them. By the time we were finished,
we had six siamese babies all squirming in ecstacy, all giving their
comments on life.

It was kind of cute. I've not really had much to do with siamese, but
the comment that they have a lot to say certainly rang true with this
lot! They KNEW they were pedigree and they were going to let me know it!

Having said that, pedigree cats are lovely, but give me my scruffy bunch
of moggies any day!
