I've had a few siamese in my day, and my parents have a lavender point right now. They are great cats, BUT they are obnoxious little devils, and they never shut up! My God, I don't know how my parents can stand it. The one they have is never, ever quiet unless she is sleeping. She is so beautiful and sweet, though.

Siamese are good cats, but not for the person who just wants a plain ol kitty. They certainly have strong personalities!

Calicos, OTOH, are my favorite. I just lost my sweet little soul mate kitty a couple of years ago to bone cancer. Still makes me cry. She was something else.

Precious the Paw isn't too mouthy of a cat, esp for being part Siamese. She'll mew for attention but she sounds more like a tiny kitten than a Siamese.

Now the other two...well...someone needs to teach them how to meow. They chirp, trill, merf and occasionally purr...but normal meows are extremely rsre. Oddly enought the calico made normal kitty sounds for the first week or so that we had her, but then picked up on all the sounds Catastrophe makes and mimics them.

For whatever reason she's quite accurate in both sound and context....the sounds mean exactly the same from her as from Cat near as we can tell. Her previous owner says she always just meowed like a regular cat before this!
