Dear Diane,
Finn and Poe are growing up gorgeously and we love them more every minute (how is this possible?!) They have bonded with our dog Fizzgig, and Poe even chooses to sleep in Fizzgig’s crate from when he was a puppy. They had them neutered two days ago and are doing great. Hope you’re having a lovely start to the autumn season and thank you again for our beautiful Finn & Poe are the best.
We moved house and they are loving the new space and the big windows to spy on birds and deer!
They are simply perfect. They are happy-go-lucky and love everyone they meet. And they adore each other, the best little brothers—perfect playmates. I’m so glad that we have them both, because I can’t imagine them separated, they do everything together! Poe is a snuggler, but also is the busier of the two, always finding something fun to play with. He also tends to let Finn investigate new things and then decides he’ll join in once it’s safe! And Finn is so funny—also a cuddler but with a mischievous streak. Endless fun. And the best is that I am their person—they follow me from room to room. They sit on my lap or on a desk-attached bed I got them when I am working, sleep by my side (on in Finn’s case, on my neck!) )
Love

Dear Diane and Amanda,
Time for an update on Tina in Merced. She is thriving in our family. She seamlessly travels between Shell Beach and Merced. She prefers the energy of life with the young grands who are crazy about her. She is learning to sleep with us under the covers. She is very attached to us and others. We make certain to have friends come by to love her up if we are gone more than 24 hours. Just want you to know that she loved and appreciated as a Siamese. Thanks for her.

B.G. is my shadow!!!! She is so obsessed with me! I love her so much. She’s the sweetest kitty I have ever met. Everyone is in love with her. She loves my husband and my kids too!! She’s an Angel. My dog and B.G. are best friends as well. It’s really something. People always laugh about them.
These two are together allll day! They are best friends! The dog is so gentle with her. We got Daisy when she was about 3 months so she grew up with BG and are so sweet together.

Gwen is the most amazing and cute little thing ever. She loves to play most of the day. Whenever I get home she usually meows so I can play with her when I open the door. She usually likes when I use this mouse toy and have her run around chasing it. She loves to climb and explore too. She loves attention, so if im working on something on my computer she tends to hop on my desk and lay on my keyboard. When she sleeps while im up she likes to either sleep with the sun on her, or in her little house bed. When it's night time and im going to bed, she tends to paw me and nibble at me to play more, but after a bit she just snuggles up either next to me or on top of me. I honestly just love how loving she is. Whenever im near her she just purrs and wants me to either pet her or play with her. She is the cutest little thing, and brings so much joy. She is also a bit of a rascal though and tends to not stop playing for a good part of the day, but it is really enjoyable and im always happy to do things with her. Non-stop energy, but she is so amazing and precious .
Wanted to give you some updates on Chibi
She is thriving and is growing up so quickly
We love her so much she’s so darn funny lol
She’s great with the kids too.
She curls her tail into a circle when she sleeps and it’s the cutest thing ever

Dear Diane,
Claire is doing very well, and we have a close bond. She and our two-year-old Bichons Frises, Skipper and Sam, and Sam in particular, like to gently play in the morning. Coco also had a good relationship with our previous Bichons.
Claire is an intelligent, beautiful, agile, and active cat. I couldn't have asked for more. She weighs about 7-1/2 pounds. She has dark blue eyes and her fur is high contrast, which I really like. I think you told me you were offering me the "best of your best."I am on your waiting list for a second Balinese kitten, seal-point or blue-point. If possible, would you offer me another one of your best of the best? I will be patient in my wait to bring Olivia home.
Kind Regards,
Christopher

Thanks for sending our little California girl here to us in Arlington, Massachusetts 😊😊😊

Diane,
Our siamese kitten is doing amazing!! He always wants to be with us, such the perfect pet! He is such a love and he lights up our home. Thank you so much for sharing him with us.
Your essentials document was so helpful and covered everything we needed.
Today we had him [neutered], given he was six months old. I attached the Vet's Certificate of Sterilization along with some pictures of him. He sure is beautiful!
Thank you,

Hi Diane. Hope this finds you well. Just wanted to share a picture of Augustus. Gus is absolutely fabulous. He has a beautiful disposition. He is incredibly affectionate, just a perfect lap cat…. Yet an abundance of energy that keeps us all wildly entertained. We just adore and love him so much.

Dear Diane: Thank you ever so much for our cat Cecil.
We named him Cecil because at the time we got him from you a lion in Zimbawa was killed by a hunter. He had a collar on and villagers knew him. The story touched our heart. We named our new kitty Cecil after the lion.
Cecil is my soulmate. He sleeps in my arms. We go everywhere with Cecil: from Appalachian Trail to sands of the beach, to mountain meadows.
One day Cecil touched my nose over and over with his paw everytime I held him he would inspect my face and touch my nose. I looked at a closeup mirror to see what was so interesting about my nose . I saw a tiny, tiny red dot. I immediately went to dermatologist. She said squamous cell cancer but did scoop biopsy. My mom had melanoma of nose. I was devastated. Sent to mount pleasant, South Carolina to Dr Cook for Mohs procedure. After his excellent surgery the skin graft covered it and because early detection very small scar two years ago.
But that’s not the end of the story.
Recently Cecil would touch my lip and kiss my face. He would hold my face and touch my lip. I saw nothing but went to dermatologist. He said nothing really but looked with scope. Squamous cell just beginning.
Cecil has saved my life twice.
I will always be grateful to you for our Cecil. He is my heart….

Hello from Sephina and family.
Her first evening she ate very well drank water and got acquainted with her potty….many accomplishments in a new environment for one day for such a little girl….
It has been one week and Sephina is WONDERFUL …she acclimated so well and so fast…now running all over the house…literally ruling the roost…
Last night we let Miss Sephina the three pound bundle of energy in the same room face to face with the our ten year old 15 lb male Tabby Mugsy….AMAZINGLY even tho she would growl a little and hiss if Mugs got too close observing her …….such a little fearless spitfire …Mugsy showed NO aggression or even voiced a growl…he was only curious of her wild antics and meowed to her softly like he used to do to Aziza as he sat quietly and watched her escapade’s. LITERALLY could not believe how accepting he is….much different than I anticipated…He doesn’t like dogs for sure… but recognizes she is a cat and may even think she is Aziza that just shrunk the way he is acting. During the day Sephina has been sleeping in Aziza’s beds and playing with her toys and climbing trees since she got here so may even smell like her now!!! maybe that is why the confused look on Mugsy’s face!!so all is well and we love her to pieces..such a joy
I just feel so grateful that she has come into our life after our beloved Aziza passed away….thank you very much for Aziza as well! Sephina will be very spoiled and is greatly loved. Sephina has definitely bonded to me and am looking forward to many happy years as my wonderful companion as each of my four Siamese have been during my life since I was a kid..Everyone who has seen pictures of her comments on how stunning she is…your kitties are not only beautiful but have the best personalities so thank you so much for her

Our new kitten
April 10, 2024
She loves to play, but also loves to cuddle or just sit by one of us. Also loves to shoulder sit. Her favorites are a toy mouse and a toy hedgehog. Also likes to chase a toy on the end of a stick especially if we hide it under a blanket and move it around
She's become good at communicating what she wants.
We haven’t had any allergy issues at all.
She's a wonderful cat and feels like a member of the family now.

Hi Diane, it’s hard to believe Gypsy and Sarah will be Six on Monday. They continue to be full of energy, intelligence, and love. I enjoy their different personalities and how they interact and how we keep everything running on schedule here as a family. I am fortunate to work at home and am able to spend lots of time with them.

Happy 1st Birthday, Sunti!

Happy birthday to my true fur friend companion, Sunti, who turns 1 today. Thank you for breeding beautiful Siamese who warm our hearts. 💖😻We’re doing our happy singing and dancing, playing and lots of cuddle time. This was the jersey I got him for his birthday 🎂
He walks around my legs rubbing up against them and purrs in my ears. He sleeps with me every night under the covers. He enjoys going on outings in his back pack and loves nature and the river. He puts a smile on every one’s face that has set eyes on his beautiful soul.
I love him so much,

James loves a feather and string on a pole! We know because he brings his favorite toys to us... from other floors! He likes the toy even more so when he's trampling over pillows. He's quite athletic, nearly ninja-like and gives his best friend Buster, a real run for his money. He always wants to be near you, including when I take a shower. And like when he was a kitten he does enjoy going under the covers every now and again. He's has a whole series of vocalizations -- like a siamese -- but he's not a crier. He currently tips the scales at 11 1/2 pounds,

Sasha is NINE! (Our annual photo) I almost missed the occasion but after all these years I wasn’t about to break the tradition and made a late night run to the grocery store for a cake and candle. 😺

We have two incredible Siamese brothers that we purchased from Diane Dunaway in July 2022 when they were 12 weeks old. To say that they are beautiful, incredibly smart, playful, mischievous and share their love with us every minute of every day is an understatement. They bring such joy, comedy and amazement to our lives. I think you’ll understand from these photos and videos just what I mean.
1st few days at home:
We soon found out they could sleep anywhere...
They play together all over the house and love anyone who comes to visit ….even little kids
Here's Scout now!

Dear Diane -
I hope all is well with you. I realized I've not written to you in quite some time and wanted to "follow up" with you regarding our boys. Desmond and Sidney are an extremely loving and energetic pair! Keeping up with them is helping us stay fit! The boys are truly sweet and affectionate and we adore them more with each passing day. Per our agreement, we had them altered several days ago and you should have received a letter from our vet stating the procedures have been completed. Please let us know if you did not receive the letter. Attached are two photos I took of our kiddos: one from 7/24 of the boys wearing their harnesses prior to a walk; the other from 9/25 of the fellows relaxing on the window sill. Feel free to post the photos on your website, and I'll send more as time progresses. We can't thank you enough for raising such wonderful boys for us!

Hi Diane, As promised, here are some pictures of Xavier (French pronunciation, so it is "Zavier"' with his nickname Xavi/Zavi for short which sounds like Bali ). "Xavier Rules"' is my favorite picture of him. The other picture shows him with his blue fuzzy ball"' he was playing with it one day and then brought it to me. I tossed it out and he fetched and brought it back. We did this a few times that day, but the opportunity has not come up again"' if it does I will see if he shows the same interest in retrieving.
He seems to have developed an interesting habit. He spends the mornings with me while I work and then disappears under the bed or into my walk-in closet until about dinner time. He definitely spends the nights where he should"'- curled up next to me on my bed!
He is very affectionate and a delight to have.
Hope you enjoy the pictures. Best regards, Susan
SIREN

Dearest Diane,
My Siamese, Siren, is exceptional!! I cannot thank you enough for breeding such an amazing being. Siren has a perfectly balanced disposition being part lover, part madwoman! She is highly intelligent and becomes more and more beautiful with every day that passes. Siren is only 7 months old and she is already click trained and performs many tricks including "sit, up, down, jump, speak, twirl, jump-hoop, paws-up, and high-five." We are in the process of learning how to lie down and roll-over. Siren's favorite game is "Fetch" and she plays with more enthusiasm and passion than most dogs. Did I mention she is leash trained as well!?! My significant other and I take her for walks through our neighborhood with her dog Beatrice.
I have never bonded so deeply with an animal and I have never been more proud. I've enclosed a few pictures of Siren growing up in sequential order from day one (her hiding behind a box for hours) to the present day (her confidently walking on a leash by my side). Thank you again for such a magnificent cat! I hope you enjoyed this update and photos of Siren.
Kindly, Jennifer

Hi, Diane:
He and the dog are joined at the hip. They play together all the time. He also loves my daughters puppy -- rolling around on the floor, playing with him. He also sleeps in front of the puppy kennel door.
We love Jasper so much. He is the sweetest cat.
He really takes care of all the dogs. And all the humans. He is the sweetest. He is not stand-off-ish at all like some cats. And he's a talker.
He loves belly rubs and often plops down on the floor in front of us, rolling over for a good rub.

BOO & TAT !!! (Kitten Update - November)
Hi Jean and Diane,
These are two of the sweetest kittens I"ve ever known. They love each other and the dog and us. Both sleep with me on the bed next to my pillow, and settle down next to me at the computer whenever I'm working on it. Boo, the Siam on the shelf above the monitor, and Toot, the Aby, on a pillow next to the mouse. They play together and exhaust each other.
Thank you both for such great kitties! -Perry- ! -Perry-

TOKEN 2016 Update

11/23/2016
Hi Diane, I was going to take a photo of Token, but my camera battery is low, so I will do that soon.
Meanwhile, I just wanted to tell you what truly fabulous kitten she is. Everyone falls in love with her. She's a major cuddler and so mellow (when she's not playing ferociously!) Her fur is like baby Alpaca, so soft. I have taken her twice to visit a friend in a rehab facility and she is good as gold in her carrier in the car, then, once released in the room, she wins over everyone who enters.
You do "breed" great cats! A.
