Our Siamese cat, Sierra, has just turned 17 on April 1st & lives with the 2 of us & a 12-yr-old Maine Coon. Those 2 breeds seem to bond well together, the breeder close who is to Salinas had several applehead Siamese in fact.

Sierra has been about 99% healthy her entire life, about 3 - 4 yrs. ago she had some arthritis in her legs, so we've been dosing both our cats with hip & joint with MSM supplement every morning with their breakfast. It is effective for Sierra's leg stiffness, much less limping & she jumps on her own to her own claimed high "turf" spots, like at the foot of our bed, or the back of our living room couch on her "blankies" about 18-in. square that Susan made especially for her (even made her a pillow of the same yarn & she loves it!). Sierra also loves to claim the TV remote in whatever room she's in for some strange reason, I've seen her using it for a pillow on occasion.

Thank you.
Your friends,
Joel & Susan

Hi Diane

Just wanted to let you know that I took the kittens into their vet for their well kitten check & to schedule their appointment for neutering. The appointment went great and they behaved like little gentlemen. Our appointment was with my long time (40 years) vet Dr. Dave Tester. He checked them all out and then just stood looking at them with a big smile and his face. He said, "You see so many that look like the real thing and they're all wonderful but when you see the real deal it just kind of knocks you flat. These are magnificant kittens." I was, of course, very proud & knew the I needed to share that with you. They are growing like weeds. Both are strong, bright, very intelligent, friendly, playful, snuggly and active. They bring smiles and laughter to every moment of the day. I have named them Quavis and Asa. They are the loves of my life. If you'd like I can continue to keep you updated.

Hi Diane, We adopted our baby girl Baboo from you back in 2004 after our beloved George passed the day after Christmas in 2003. She made a long but safe trip from Cali to Maryland in February 2004 and demands 120% of our attention which we gladly give her. She is the love of our life and still acts like a kitten. She is so smart...I tell my husband if electricity wasn't already invented Baboo would be working on it!

Your cats are so smart, beautiful, and sweet!

Diane- We first met when you vetted me for adopting two of your Apple-head Siamese cats almost 15 years ago. I doubt you remember me, but their names are Fledermaus (M) and Moki (F). They are still my beloved pets, always within arms reach even as I write this to you. They are absolutely the best, most loving animals I have ever met. I travel with them some, and everyone who meets them is astonished by their calm and loving demeanor. It has been an honor to have them be a part of my life.

Diane, Wanted to give you an update on my beautiful, sweet kitten "Bailey" from the June 2012 litter. He just got neutered and has healed perfectly, in fact I don't think he noticed anything happened ... ha. The vet says he at his ideal weight, weighing in at 10.2 pounds at 7 months! He is playful, affectionate, curious, and is SO smart, just as you said he would be. He comes when he is called, follows me everywhere, lets me sleep through the night, and nudges me awake if i snooze the alarm too many times. I'm in love!!! Here he is sitting on my lap, sitting on his favorite cat shelf where he loves to watch the birds at the bird feeder, and taking a walk in his cat stroller (he jumps in it every time I take it out). Please don't ever stop breeding these amazing babies!

Hi Diane

We've had our two precious babies now for a little over a year and we just love these beautiful furry members of our family. They are just pure delight !!! I call them "living art" and rays of sunshine that move around throughout the house ! They are as different in looks and personality as can be and each brings their own specialness into our lives.

Pansy (the one we came back for a month later and the last one you had out of that particular litter), was worth the trip back to get her. She is still very little and seems like our kitten in many ways. She snuggles with me at night, and often climbs between myself and Bob and purrs and kisses us in the middle of the night. She is still a "retriever" and is so agile !!! She almost literally flies around. She is Bob's cat ~ and when she hears him get up in the morning about 6:30 (she's curled up with me :-)., she slips out from under the cover and follows him to the bathroom, rubs against his legs and kisses him, then jumps on the counter and waits for him to pick her up and nuzzle her a little bit, then bring her back to bed to snuggle up with me. She has captured his heart !

Petunia is beautiful ~ and big !! (around 10 pounds and Pansy a 7 pounder). Her coat is so pretty and she loves to follow me around and just lay her body out with paws crossed and just "be" with me with whatever it is I'm doing. She has gotten to much more loving ~ but she's not my cuddler. She loves to join Bob when he's eating because he shares goodies with her. She and Pansy love to tussle and play, then cuddle up together and groom. Our older Siamese, Peaches, has finally accepted them and they have wonderful romps together and are great friends ! Petunia is more of a lounger while Pansy loves to jump anything high and take her naps up high!

As you'll see in this picture I just took yesterday, they were laying on my still unmade bed and by the time I got my phone camera, Pansy had come over and draped herself over Petunia ! I thought it was so cute, I'd send it to you.

Thanks again for your beautiful breeding cats that gave us their precious offsprings! We LOVE them and pray they have long lives.

Hi Diane,

Our new kitty is doing really well. She has made friends with our 2 yr. old siamese, Milo. Milo is very gentle and loving and is washing her and playing carefully with her. I think she is already the boss! She hisses at him every now and then and Milo takes a few steps back and just sits down to watch. She is lying on my desk today while I work. We named her Juneau. It seemed fitting since we chose her just before our Alaska trip and then got to bring her home just after. Thanks for entrusting her to us. I'll keep in touch.

I just thought you might like to know that Charm and Buttercup had their second birthday yesterday. These are the two siamese sisters that were adopted by Mark and Marianne Dahl. As these cats mature, they seem to get more and more different, and we love them so much. For their birthday, we bought them a litter box with a tunnel, a portrait to put on the mantal, a special dinner and the silliest musical card that is in the language of Meow! Thank you so much for these two. They are so happy.

The boys are fantastic. You were right. One is a little lover and the other is a clown. We named the little lover, Bali and his brother, Karma. They are everything we hoped for and more. As expected it took a couple of days for them to get comfortable and they are no happily purring, playing and getting into mischief.

All of your recommendations were terrific. We got a great scratching post which they love to use and climb; safe litter and Innova kitten food. They love bedtime and Bali is a squeaky purrer while Karma has deep rumble.

You know we got them as a replacement for our beloved Zak, a 19-year old Siamese who passed away January 10. These boys have brought us much needed joy.

I want to thank for your incredible professionalism, kindness and care in helping us get them. I spoke with over 6 catteries and you were head and shoulders above the rest. Lauren and I may be in San Diego in mid-March. If possible, we would like to stop by and meet the parents. Let me know.

April, my beautiful kitty is fixed.  Hope this will satisfy our agreement, I could photo the bill if you like.
She bounced back to normal in one day.  We had to lock her in a bedroom so she wouldn't run up and down the stairs and throughout the house She is so sweet and quite a talker.  We communicate numerous times every day
Here she is wondering what happened;
Shaved and I guess they Iv'ed her in the leg.
I took her to Dana Niguel Vet because they did a very good job on Jordan (our other cat).
Their webpage said they do "laparoscopic spays".
The vet did a small cut with the stitches on the inside that will dissolve (as it was explained to me).
She has a ton of energy and I love her so much.
She's in my lap as I'm writing this email. 8-)
Thank you so much for making beautiful kitties,

I am delighted to see that you are still breeding. These are my boys Lapis and Orion. They are about to celebrate their 18th birthday. They were born Dec 31, 1993 and their parents were Fantasia the Smart and Samurai. I feel very blessed to still have them in good health. They are wonderful companions. When we got them at 8 weeks, we could not tell apart. At 12 weeks Orion grew larger and we could see the long body and legs. Lapis is more compact and has a flatter face and looks just like the 1980’s photos of our beloved Siamese, Kink.

Lapis is on my lap every chance he gets. Orion has always been very reserved and elegant, when he was younger he was quite a talker.
They share their home with a 14 year old calico named Pretty Girl.

Dear Diane,
I don't know what I ever did so well in my life to deserve my good luck in getting this baby. I'm only grateful that by some miracle the other Arizona family did not take her, and by some wonderful miracle, I have this baby instead. I can't tell you how thrilled we are. I never imagined I could ever hope to have another Siamese as intelligent and adorable as my Chester, but here she is.

For the first day she looked at all of us as if we had kidnapped her, but by evening she seemed to decide, "Oh well, I might as well enjoy the good treats they have around here." So she just ate a little then started to play with a ping pong ball we put in the bathtub (without any water in it of course) and pretty soon she was having a wonderful time batting the ball in and out of the tub. Pretty soon we had a game going consisting of her batting the ball out and me tossing it back in. Immediately she understood exactly what we were doing and began really going at it like a modified game of fetch, only I'd toss and she'd bat it back.

My fiance who has never particularly enjoyed cats was with me and she seemed to know she had to win him over. So the second day she got on his chest as he was sitting in a lazy boy and settled down, looked him right in the eye and gave him a lick on the nose. Then she started to purr with that sweet little sound. When he talked to her, she talked back in a silly little trilling meow. Needless to say, he is now enchanted and in fact, he has been carrying her around the house and even shared his tuna fish sandwich with her. Don't worry, I know this is a No No, but I couldn't resist letting him spoil her just one time. I've never seen him so charmed by anything and I never expected him to be so fascinated by anything feline.

I also can't believe her eye color. I knew it would be dark and gorgeous, but I don't think a photo can really do it justice. I did snap this one of her that I thought you might enjoy. I don't know when you will have more litters, but now we're thinking of getting a second one to keep her company. Should we get a boy or a girl? Get back to me on this so we can get on your next list. Again, Diane, I can't tell you how happy we are we found you. I appreciate so much how careful you are about the pets you breed and the care with which you place them. If you ever need a recommendation, send them to me.

Diane,

This is Randy and Jeanette M****** bragging about our boy again. Buckwheat has passed into the last few years of his precious life. I can tell this because of his slowing down the pace-even with the two Tonkinese two-year olds in the house. But his enjoyment and joy of living has not diminished a bit! Buck’s birthday will be on Monday, August 19th this year. He will be turning a very graceful and proud 16! We were blessed with his arrival about 7 or 8 weeks after that. He is a luscious Chocolate Point and has proven to be the Master of the House. We still giggle at the fact that we received him from you at the San Diego airport with a big green magic marker stamp on his neck; we are so grateful that you made the choice you did, our lives would not have been the same without him! (Boy, was he a chick-magnet on the plane and in the airport!!!)

So please put on a party hat and throw some confetti in the air for our little boy, Buckwheat on Monday.
You will never know the depth of our appreciation for your ability to select our “Winner”

(We have one King German Shepherd – 125lbs., 3.5 yrs. old)
Bucky still rules the roost.

Hi Diane:

She's GREAT
I've had several cats and 2 dogs during my lifetime but I've never had any animal that caught my attention as much as this kitten.
--------------
At the bridge center, people would ask me, "Why did you get a cat from San Diego? Couldn't you have gotten one here?"
I replied, "Probably ... but I liked the breeder."
I've never purchased a cat before. I never thought I would purchase a cat. But when I decided on Siamese, I knew I wanted a very particular breeder and I felt you would do what was best for the breed.
It is not that I plan to show the cat ... I just wanted a healthy cat.
I could imagine Siamese "mills" where cats that should never breed did breed and kittens with all kinds of defects.
To me, it is easier to get a mutt or alley cat ... but if you are getting a pure-breed I would think you would need higher standards in selecting a breeder.
This was just my thinking.
This kitten is everything I could have hoped for ... and more!

Thanks, Joan B.

Here are our babies ~ together after only a couple of days.  Bob saw them grooming each other.  Bob just said "I'm so glad we got the two of them ~ they will have a lot of fun together ~ and we'll have fun watching them".  Thanks for the  sunshine kids !  :-)

We thought they indeed looked like a couple of little flowers ~ so along with Petunia, we have Pansy.  Petunia is the one in front and Pansy behind..

Hi Diane

I just wanted to send you a picture of Sophie (born 2-26-09 and sold to Kathy ***** in Idaho Falls, Idaho) now that she is over 2 years old. I want to tell you that this sweet kittie is absolutely the light of my life. She is also the most beautiful thing ever. Her eyes are the talk of the town. Her doctor calls her his beauty queen. She is the funniest cat I have ever seen with the way she plays with different things. Picture her getting inside of a plastic grocery bag, pulling it tight and rubbing her nose across it until it squeeks. She still fetches her sock toys like a dog, loves it. I couldn't ask for a better companion. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Hi Diane
It's only been two weeks since we adopted 'Bugsy' Malone ... he's fit in so well with our zoo that it feels like he's been with us much longer. The first day or so after we brought him home he'd hide under the pillows but as he learned all of the new sounds of our house and came face to face with the rest of the cats and dogs he soon realized there was nothing to be afraid of. Bugsy has settled in quite well ... he very independent, loves to play, runs (or I should say darts) everywhere, he talks quite a bit and is a total food hound. 'Mama' Sara and Clyde (our other male cat) are his best playmates, 'Grandma' Catera will let him sleep on the same bed with her and Bonnie and Friskey could care less either way. Both of the dogs (Jake and Shadow) have allowed Bugsy to 'checkout' their food bowls and even give him kisses, when the opportunity arises ...

Bugsy is a great addition to our family, we ALL love him dearly

Best Wishes, Debbie & Kevin W.

Dear Diane
Suchin was very quiet that first evening and even the next day (see the first two photos) but then her personality started to shine through. She began to talk and leap and run (see the next photos). She is active and does everything with a wild abandon.Her antics keep us laughing. She loves to play and now will go to her toy box or just mew at us until we pull a string around the room while she chases after it. She explores every room and closet and there isn't a piece of furniture that she won't try to scale. I've tied a long scarf over the bedroom door knob and tied a string with a fake mouse on another. Suchin found them  right away and likes to jump and bat at them then runs like crazy to hide then jumps out to try it again. Then, when she is tired, she collapses and sleeps on our bed under the covers during the day or directly my pillow at night.
She is very sweet and affectionate and we marvel at her delicate beauty and her unique personality.
We are thrilled to to have her join our family! Thanks for raising such a gem!

Elizabeth & Gerry

Suchin at the airport	Her first day she was quite understandably timid and liked to hide out.
I think she's going to be a talker!	Suchin is a fabulous jumper. What an athlete!

Hi Diane,
How are you? I hope you are well.

I was just having fun taking picture of Angel yesterday. Here she is on our kitchen table leaning against the top of the chair. I have more pictures but thought of sending this to you since I'm downloading pictures and cleaning up my picture folders. Coco and she will be 6 in July

Hi Diane,
Just thought you should know that we have the happiest, brightess little kitten in the universe!  We adore him. He's eating well and getting along famously with our other cat, Zoe, a Bengal. They're best friends. Actually I"M his best friend. He's always with me. Thank you for brightening our lives after the devastating loss of Ben. Adam actually has lots of the same characteristics as Ben, which warms my heart.

We just love him so much and, as I'm retired, I'm always with him. Thanks for bringing such brightness to our home with little Adam.

Fondly, Cathy W.

Hi Diane,
i just wanted to share with you an updated picture of my little guy.  I named him Picasso and he is such a dear.   He rules the roost and is very much loved.   He is super smart, very cuddly and playful.  I can't believe he is already a year and two months old.   He is good friends with my roomate's dog.  He has a super high cat tree that he adores and lounges on daily.   Your cats are great and thank you for my great companion, I can't imagine life with out him.

Hi. I just wanted you to know that the kitten, Mombasa, that I picked up on Sunday is doing great. He is adjusting very well. I'm already so I love with him. He is now use to two areas of the house. I'm getting him use to small areas a little at a time. He is so full of energy and personality. I laugh constantly at his tricks. Thank you again and rest assured he is well lived and taken care of.

Abby is ... unbelievable.  Really, she is fearless, loves to be loved, loves to travel, is only happy to be by my or my husbands' side, doesn't fret over doorbells, dogs barking, service people visiting, little people visiting, ducks honking and birds chirping, crows crowing, or even the house alarm squealing (by mistake- it even scared me). We both just say wow.

I am gonna get her spayed very soon and she'll be getting her rabies shot also.

Pictures to follow.

Hi Diane,

Just wanted to send you an update and some photos.  The kittens are fantastic - they have acclimated totally to their new home here with us and we absolutely adore them.  They are loving, playful, and pretty much perfect!  They sleep with the boys and play together all the time.  I thought you'd enjoy these photos, especially the ones where they are "hugging" each other.  They do love each other, and we love them!  Taiko, the larger of the two,  is mellow and relaxed and loves to lounge around surveying his kingdom. Niko, the smaller one, is full of energy and into everything.  We call him "Naughty Niko" but he isn't really naughty, just very curious!  Their presence has helped so much in healing our hearts after losing Chino.  Thanks again for all of your help - rest assured that they do have a good home and are much loved! --  Colleen

Sorry to have taken so long to respond. Here are your two boys – Sinjin and Kiraly – at 10 mos. They continue to provide us with daily entertainment, laughter and pleasure. For all their boyish ways, they are still quite civilized; they play hard during daylight hours but sleep peacefully with us at night

They’re healthy and happy and pampered daily! Thanks for providing us with such joy.

Hi Diane

Thank you sooo much for sending me the link! they are adorable and the wrestling is very similar to the games that Miu and her Chartreux brother Marcel play. She also likes to play with a toy identical to the Kitten Playing with Feather.

Miu is such a joy! Not only is she gorgeous, but she is so much fun. Loves to fetch like a dog, is cuddly, playful and loves to chat.

She also adores her brother like they were littermates..they chase each other, they wrestle and they cuddle. And he loves her too. Below is a picture of them together.Thank you again for such a wonderful cat!

Hi Diane I thought you might enjoy seeing some pics of Milo. He is quite an adventurer and wants to get to the highest place possible. I came home one day and found him on top of the cupboards in my laundry room. Ironically this is where my Max (deceased) used to lay all the time. Almost made me cry. The other picture was one day when I was getting ready to go away for a couple of days. I had been going in and out to the car putting things in to take and came back to get my purse and he was snuggled inside as if to say, "you are not leaving without me!" He is in what I call the "teenage stage", he is long and lanky and curious about everything and gets into everything. But still a "Mama's" boy and cuddles up to my legs in bed every night-

I loved the U-tube video of your babies! I will go back on and put a comment. Take care,

Hi Diane,

Thanks for the link! Those kittens are adorable. That brought back fun memories. Myles was dozing in my lap while I played the videos; he lifted his head and looked around when he heard the kittens mew and squeak. Hard to believe he will be eight years old this summer! We all love this cat more every day--he is the sweetest, cuddliest, craziest, and most obliging of felines, not to mention handsome. His fur is plush, his eyes are bluer than our lake in summer, and his voice is powerful and frequently heard, if somewhat less than melodic. Your Siamese cats are the best.

We're all doing great, thanks.

Hi Diane -

just a little update. Suki's has been with us a month tomorrow, hard to believe. There is no end to her energy - we tried to take a picture of her with her favorite mouse but it was really hard, she's charging around the house with it 90 miles an hour!! But every night she sleeps between us, either on top of the comforter or way under, totally covered!! She is growing by leaps and bounds and weighs just about five lbs and has lost three of the four baby fangs.

We really appreciate your good training, we've never had to "bad cat" her since she only uses the scratching posts. Since she is with us just about 24/7 she has really bonded with us and she's our little sunshine!! click for previous news of Suki

Sorry it has taken me so long to get back to you. I had surgery last month and, although it has gone extremely well, I am behind.
I looked at the posts of the kitten and at other posts—yours are the best—most interesting and active. Those kittens are dolls!

My guys continue to thrive—both over 7 pounds now. They are full of curiosity and mischief.
Galahad is the ring leader with Lancelot only half a step behind. I am so glad I have the two of them the play together—I don’t know if Percival and I could keep up with one. They are going tomorrow to be neutered

We named her Suki Neko (Japanese meaning beloved (female) cat), Suki for short.

Here is the first meeting between Spike and Suki. Wow, she did not back down...

The next day ...

We have a great place for a kitten to prowl...

She sleeps all night between us, purrs like a tractor and charges around the house like a madwoman. With her personality we understand you miss her. You'll hear from us soon again with more (and better) pictures.

Hi Diane,

Shiki continues to be amazingly wonderful. Here are a couple of pictures I took for you today. Gorgeous little thing. I didn't get any good ones of her tail which I adore because when she's happy and walking/running it bends back towards her head.

She brings toys to me when she wants me to play. She follows me everywhere. She jumps through a hoop. She's never missed her poopy box or scratched anything but her post. I carry her around on my shoulder throughout the house. She purrs loudly (a lot) and meows softly (rarely). She has a favorite toy she likes to take with her wherever she goes. She lets me touch her anywhere ... no sensitive spots. I am so in love!

Good to hear from you. Hope 2010 is treating you well so far.

For Mary's birthday that same week, I had a little surprise - a brand new Siamese kitten we named Sensei. His antics this year have been entertaining every single day, and he is spoiled rotten. Each of us has always wanted, even before we met, to have a Siamese, so this was our big treat, and he has never disappointed!
