I will look and see and then email him if I find one. That is helpful info.
My foster cat, whom I named Izzee, is good. Thanks for asking. She's definitely gotten lost in this "shuffle" since I needed advice/help with the rescue cat "Nosey." But Izzee does not get neglected by me that is for sure! She is going to be 1 in September and she's such a kitten still! And I haven't had kittens since I was 10! So I have to spend time playing very rough with her every morning and night. We've had some "issues" with sleeping through the night, and her sleeping ALL day until I come home. Which, with going to my mom's to treat Nosey and doing other errands, sometimes I don't get home until late (9, 10, etc.) and that is NOT good...for me...because she stays up all night (I have a shotgun house, not doors...no escape!). But it's getting better. I FEAR she needs a friend...another young cat. But she is declawed (I didn't do it!), and she's clearly never been around other cats, so I am kind of trying to figure out what to do about that. Do I take in another foster? "Borrow" a foster from Shamrock to see what they do?
We have had our ups and downs. I know I took her in too soon after Monkee's passing and I was back to having to rush home to take care of a cat. And I learned to be careful what you wish for because I said the house was "too quiet" and it was killing me...and she came in and she's a "talker." She talks ALL THE TIME! It is so funny, but in the middle of the night, when she's asking me questions..., it's not so funny! At first, she brightened my life; then, admittedly her undisciplined nightlife ways got on my nerves. My Monkee was so cool, calm and collected, but also a crazy ruffian when he wanted to be, but he could always settle himself down as soon as it was time. Izzee lacks this ability. In a weird way, my uncontrollable comparing of the two of them has made me miss my big Black & White Boy even more...? I think we are swinging back into the mode of her brightening my life tho-- I think she's funny, goofy and ridiculous and I know Monkee would think the same of her. We are working on discipline (water gun- which I don't know if this is working because she just stands there and emitts "sounds"- her talking noises- when she gets sprayed and then dashes off like a nut...but she doesn't seem bothered by it, I think she thinks it's a game. I fear she may "enjoy" getting squirted?) She's a trip though and I will probably keep her because I don't want her to have to go to a 3rd home...I think that's too sad that she's already been surrendered by two owners!

Hi Caroline,If there is a Siamese Rescue group in your neck of the woods, please make the man knows to contact them.They (rescue groups) usually have agreement w/ the area shelters to be notified prior to ANY Siamese being euth.This is providing the group is good standing w/ the area shelters.If they are part of the National Alliance, however, chances are good that they are in good standing.And most of them would rather return an animal back to it's rightful owner than find a foster & try to adopt out.There are just so many out there in need.Thanks for helping this man!How is your new foster, by the way?Susan J. DuBose >^..^<

Faithful Bast at her side did wait,
Purring welcomes of soft applause,
Ever guarding with sharpened claws."

I think I deleted it (I can't find it) and I wanted to see if you could re-post? My mom and I still have the rescue cat (we posted on craigslist, the local newspaper online and we are also going to do a print ad, posted signs at the grocery, the pet store, and we have posted signs in what we believe to be the cat's neighborhood on Sat.- but we haven't had ANY calls!). Yes, we have the owner's phone number and street name (but not street number) and we are TRYING to make the owner come to us. We posted signs on the alleged owner's street, but my mom made me post signs in other places too so it wouldn't look so obvious and um, stalker-ish, which I think is a term you used Wendy!But when we were posting the sign at the pet store, we met an old man that lost a neutered Siamese Seal Point and he struck up a conversation with my mom (of course). I gave him the craigslist info so he could post there and my mom recommended he make the rounds to the Animal Shelters. Today, I found his post on craigslist with a picture and this cat is GORGEOUS...so I feel really bad for him. I wanted to send him an email to his craigslist address providing him with those additional websites where he can post.I would really appreciate it if you could provide them again!Thanks,Caroline
