Hello cat lovers:

Me and my husband love cats. Have never owned a dog. I began with cats when I was about 13 yrs old. First one was a Seal pt. Siamese. She liked everyone. She used to lay against my back and wake me up in the middle of the night because she purred so loud.

Since I got married in 1986 and have had more cats. Three were domestics. One was named Toby and he loved my lap. Whenever I'd sit he'd jump in my lap. He used to lay above my head. I have two kids and when I was about six months pregnant, I awoke one morning and found my five cats laying around my stomach. Two were Siamese, one was a Himilayan/Siamese mix and two domestics. Seems they are very sensitive.

My husband and I love Siamese. We have had three (a seal pt and two blue pts). They are great with kids. When my first son was born, two of them jumped in his crib and layed beside him.

Siamese have a lot of admirable qualities. Seem to understand English and are very smart.

My current cats don't go to bed with me. And my Siamese seldom purrs.

This is my story. Better go.

Sincerely

Anne
