Hi Suzy & Warren, we have ( currently ) two Oriental Siamese. An 8-9 year old male Ebony and a 6 year old female Havana. We have had up to 5 at one point, Silver Lynx, Cream Lynx and a genetic throwback to a full Siamese seal point colouration. We have had about 8 over the years. Ours live mainly indoors but are free to go outside although being Orientals they prefer to stick close to where we are. We call them 'Velcro' cats.
They are the most awesomely intelligent, personable, fun loving critters you could ever wish to have and very loyal.
We have lost two to sickness, one to old age (17 !!) and only one just lost, not found. Heart breaking when they go as they are such family cats.
Koko, our big male ebony lets me 'jump' on him and scruffle him up. Gets up on the bed when I come home, crouches down flat and I drop onto him landing mainly on my elbows etc and I roll him round and beat him up. Purrs like a fire engine and knows I'll never hurt him. Incredible trust from an animal. He play fights with no claws yet he can shred a rat.
Abby, our female havana is an absolute lady, gentle and quick. Lives inside 99% of the time and sits on everyones knee.
Gorgeous creatures.
