Who in hell threw a Siamese out on the street??? Wtf! Hes a beauty. My old Siamese was a fat, blind, greedy, loud, malting monstrosity. But god I loved her. Still a Burmese man at the end of the day though :-)

I grew up with Siamese cats. We've had them since I was a child. All of our cats have been descendants of our first Siamese. We still have one old gal left. She's been with us since 1999.

She looks nice with her white boot! Somebody suggested a while back that he may be Tonkinese. Either way, I love him. There were no other strays his age and the locals said he appeared from no where. He's very affectionate, is this normal for the breed?

They are very affectionate and very protective. He may not want you to share your life with anyone but him. :p

Tell Minky to try some Nicorette. :-)
 
Siamese, tonkinese, who knows. As to cats characteristics, I find it an incredibly iffy subject. I think that while there is a difference in certain breeds traits, it is more to do with lineage and upbringing. We've always had a Burmese and a Siamese, but it has seemed to be hit and miss on their characteristics. I had a Burmese called pheobe from a kitten, I brought here up as a ball of affection but also a hunter, would bring in rabbits, hares, pheasants. But would also run out in the morning when the postlady rang the bell, and hide in her basket so that she could get lots of strokes and cuddles from her. The Siamese was very affectionate, but very shy and selective in her affection. So regal though! The Siamese before that would love anything that had a pulse, as would the Burmese before that, but wouldn't hurt a fly. The Burmese once found a wounded kitten in the fields so picked it up and borought it home to us to look after.

My eldest brother and our first siamese :)
