I was love/hate, but now I'm totally in lerrrrve!

My mum has two Siamese and they are cross-eyed, weird beasties with rather bizarre behaviours so I wasn't too keen on them.

Then Mini, our Siamese, came into our life by accident and needed a home due to his heart condition, so I weakened and said OK. We nearly lost him and it was then that I discovered how much I love these intelligent, yowling, domineering, playful, destructive kitties! I wouldn't trade him in for the world.

When I get home at night he's waiting on the stairs for me, he follows me around the house and then bolts upstairs to wait for me to change. He sits in the bathroom sink while I'm brushing my teeth and has a little chat with me in Siamese-speak. He sits on my ribs at bedtime just to make sure I know he's there and has his toys waiting on the bed for (far too early) morning play. He sits on the computer keyboard to play beeping sounds to me while I work and sometimes steps on the 'send' button so my friends can read my English/Siamese e-mails. The most engaging and infuriating of cat breeds rolled into one!
