To tell the real truth, I don't feel nuts at all, I am just so happy to have him! He is such a gentleman and such an armful! (16#) I have never had a siamese before and never heard of flame point siamese. I can tell that he has never had a real home before. There are things he is afraid of that any cat that had had a home would know about. I can't wait to see what his personality is like in 6 months or so when he has had a good chance to settle in. If I have this boy for weeks or years the time will be so worth it because he is so very special! ---- Marylyn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
