ROMEO
Hi there, I'm Romeo, and I wasn't named that for nothing! Pet me and give me some loving and I'll flop over for a tummy rub. With this kind of personality can you believe that about 6 months ago someone just threw me and my friend, Chula, away.......left us to fend for ourselves in the woods! Then a nice lady saw us and took us in and loved on us, fed us and took care of us. Now something has happened and she couldn't care for us any more, so she contacted Meowmy for help, and after a few days at the shelter, here I am. You can ask about me, but I'd love to have my friend Chula come with me, so please ask about us both.
For now, purrs and head butts,
Romeo

Notes from Home
Chula and Romeo have been living with us in Bangkok, Thailand for almost three years. They are healthy and are very happy. Thai people love them being that the Siamese breed originated here. We will be returning to the States in July and must get them ready for the long plane ride back.

JASPER
Okay, so I'm a little overwhelmed, you would be too, dragged out of a multiple cat home, put in a shelter, moved to the Rescue Center, bathed ..... who knows what's next?
Maybe a real home?

Notes from Home
It's hard to believe that Harriet and Jasper have only been here two weeks tomorrow; seems like it's been much longer than that. And it is virtually impossible to discuss them separately. Right now they are galloping through the house, batting toys around. They are integrating nicely.
Harriet remains the sweetheart she always was and exactly what we expected. She is very loving and gentle, but she is no push over. If Jasper starts something, she will finish it. Julie was correct, she does really like him. We had blocked off the den with a four feet piece of cardboard. Harriet jumps it to go into the den and jumps back when she's finished in there. She's eating well and has excellent litter box habits.
Jasper is another story. Siri, I don't know what you did with Sundae, but this can't be the same, sad and bewildered cat! Jasper is an outgoing, friendly, playful, goof ball. He talks all the time; and mostly to himself. He is a bit of an ankle winder, but we are hoping he'll grow out of that. He eats like he has hollow legs and can fling litter like it was an Olympic sport. If there is an unusual noise, he'll run toward it, not away. We have laughed at him until we've cried. He has learned that there are consequences to pulling Harriet's tail. He is a little rough with his toys; he also will pick them up and carry them around. He's very dog-like.
They both are great lap sitters. Harriet had a nice nap with Ron's dad in his recliner the other evening.
We continue to feed them grain-free. They both eat mostly wet food - primarily Wellness and Soulistic. On the dry food, I started with Core and Nature's Variety Instinct. I think Julie was the one who sent the Orijin. That's all Harriet will eat. Jasper will eat dry if there is nothing else to eat. I've been mixing them together,
-------------------------------
22 April 2013
Wow! It’s been a year? Seems like forever. Harriet is still her sweet, demure self (most of the time anyway!). She is still petite, weighing a mere 7 pounds. But make no mistake; she is the alpha cat here. She rules the roost, or at least her goofy brother, Jasper. Her favorite pastime during the day is to go from the big front window to the big back window and survey her kingdom. There are birds in the front and squirrels in the back. She doesn’t miss a thing.
She does not like to share her space or her people with Jasper. In fact, she spends most of her evening in Ron’s dad’s chair, with or without Franklin. She’s either in his lap or in his chair. She is also the instigator in much of what goes wrong here; but she has mastered both the ability to extricate herself seconds before disaster and that “He’s done it again, Mom!†look of exasperation.
Jasper has grown into a BIG kitty; he’s weighing in at 14 pounds. He’s not fat; he’s just a BIG boy. He’s also a big baby. He’s in your lap or on the back of your chair or walking right in front of you or lying behind you at the kitchen sink. Jasper loves to play, really more than Harriet. And it gets him into trouble sometimes. He’ll grab her tall, immediately roll over in submission waiting for her inevitable swat. He still worships the ground she walks on. She loves him; but preferably from a little distance.
He is very talented. He has learned to open all the bi-fold doors that don’t have locks on the top. He can open the cabinets and hide between the big pots. He’s a fabulous bed buddy! He’ll put his head on your hand and wrap his paws around your arm to prevent your escape. And he’s learned to use the IPad. Friskies’s has a little “catch the fish†game that he plays. But when he gets tired, he’ll lay on it. He will even reach behind it to try and get the fish from the back.
They are both in good health. Jasper has been to the vet for an eye issue, but it was resolved quickly.
Now, two quick stories…
The last time my book club was here, I warned everyone that Jasper might join us but Harriet would probably stay upstairs. Jasper is the friendly one. Sure enough, as we were getting started, Jasper came in, went to everyone to get his pets, drank out of Carol’s glass, crawled up on the ottoman in the middle of the group and went to sleep. As we were wrapping up, Harriet came downstairs and proceeded to walk across the lap of everyone seated on the sofa before she climbed up on the cat tree. I was flabbergasted!
On Creation Sunday, our church does a blessing of the animals. We bought harnesses and leashes for both Harriet and Jasper, loaded them in their crates and off we went. Harriet sat in my lap the entire service like the little lady she is. The dogs and other animals didn’t bother her. She was the hit of the service. Jasper, on the other hand, could not be extricated from his crate! I took Harriet up for her blessing. Ron just carried the crate up with poor Jasper in it so Pastor Fran could bless him, too. So not what I expected.
Check out their new pictures!

Well, it’s been a couple of years since our last update and a lot of things have changed around the Wagner household. Ron’s dad, Franklin passed away in April, 2015, and my mother left us last summer.
Harriet and Jasper are both still doing well. We just did our annual vet checkups, and both are in great shape. Harriet has managed to maintain her svelte figure and weighs a mere 7.5 pounds. We just had blood work done and she is in perfect health. She still gets her exercise ruling both the roost and her brother. No doubt about it, she’s the dominate one. She’s still very talkative and very fussy about what she eats. Her favorite toy is still her ratty old fur mouse, which she seems most happy to carry around in her mouth while caterwauling at 3:00 a.m. and she is still a daddy’s girl unless he isn’t around. She loves watching the birds and squirrels in the yard. She has never been much for active toys, but waits for Ron to get home every night so she can sit on him and demand that he rub the sides of her head.
I spent June, 2016 to January, 2017 in Tennessee working on estate issues and was welcomed warmly on my return. Jasper slept on my head for about 6 weeks. He is definitely a mama’s boy. He has recently recovered from a respiratory infection and weighs in at almost 17 pounds. He turned out to be a big boy. His favorite top is an orange boa on a three foot wand. He carries it around the house all the time. He also like the mechanical toys that have moving parts, although a lot of the time he is laying on his back waving his paws in the air. Those seem to be the videos that make it to Facebook. He is also tall enough to stand up with his paws on the edge of the table and peer over the edge to see if our dinner is more interesting than his. Mostly he just wants to sit in your lap if you are eating or working.
We bought a small scratching post with a pedestal on top from Aruba Cat. Jasper sits and watches me cook. Harriet crawls around the two posts like some kind of exotic dancer. She’s much harder to video as she only does this when the mood strikes her.
So despite the changes, we are all good. Hope this finds you all the same.

HARRIET
Two months, really? Who would have thought a sweetie pie like me would STILL be waiting for my forver home to find me. Whatcha waiting for? I'm WAY past that crazy kitten stage so I'm well mannered. I'm laid back, affectionate, head butt everything in my path, use the litter box like a lady should, I have a good appetite and I snack through out the day so I can maintain my girlish figure. I have a lot to say when I greet Foster Mom at the door and when I'm done telling her about my day, I purr, purr, purr. I like dogs and other nice cats. Since I am so gentle, I would be happiest in a fairly quiet home. I can be your one and only or I can live with nice dogs and cats.
I am all ready to go home so ask about me, please?
Love,
Harriet

MARNEY
Well, after waiting for what seemed forever, I was finally sprung from the shelter. Meowmy picked me up, gave me a bath, clipped my claws, and loved on me, and I purred the whole time. I was so good for my bath, I just sat in the sink while she rubbed me all over. It felt sooooo good to be clean again.
I don't like the other cats here, so I"ll need to be your only cat. Check out the video meowmy took of me.
So for now........purrs

Notes from Home
Only 4 years? It seems like my Mom and I have been together forever. She told me her goal was to get me under the covers and snuggle....well how could I resist? I still like to test her with my food desires, sending her off to find new types of food for me from time to time. ( I am a Siamese after all)!
My vet gave me another great bill of health. Yippee!
My Mom tells me I am a rascal. I have no idea what that means but I know it must be a good thing cuz she adores me!
4/20/2017
My precious Marney passed today of stomach cancer. It was so unexpected, so devastating.
She was sweet and undemanding from the moment we met to the time I held her in my arms and felt her pass on.
Marney and I thank all of her Supporters at VA Siamese Rescue for your devotion and dedication to helping find love for those who wish to be loved unconditionally.
Bless you.
Most sincerely,
Marney and Leigh
Happy 3rd anniversary to me! I am just so relaxed and content. My Mom happens to be away for a few days visiting my human 1 yr old cousin but has a very nice lady cat lover staying with me so I don't get lonely. She keeps telling me I'm a doll baby!
I have already seen my sweet vet for my check up and all is well. weight good, no more lost teeth, my coat looks amazing....my mom brings me for mani-pedis every 6 weeks. I like it better when they do it!
Thank you all for your continued best wishes. You really are so great at what you do....this is what my mom tells me ALL the time.
Purrs,
Marney
Marney is a sweetheart! On our way home she purred the entire time. She has adjusted well.
She is officially my alarm clock. ^ am I wake to the sound on little claws on her scratching post and after some petting off we go for a bit of play time before breakfast. She seems to enjoy her quiet time during the day and by dinner her spunk reappears! She loves her feather wand and hiding in her cube.
A good match made possible by the great volunteers!
More stories to come.........
Marney and Leigh
Hi everyone!
I went to meet my new Vet today. She is awesome, very gentle and caring. My Mom sat in the car with me until the office was ready to bring me into the room so I wouldn't have to listen to those annoying dogs. They're SO rambunctious!
I received a clean bill of health and a booster shot. My Mom was so amazed at how sweet I was...didn't whine, sat nice and still and was happy to be back home afterwards.
I am really quite happy here. Had another friend over today to visit. She and her family have two cats and she knows just how to rub me. She also brought me new mice to play with.........what fun!
I had a photo shoot yesterday and hope my Mom can get them "published" for you all to see soon! Watch for my beauty shots........I look amazingly pretty and well groomed. ( My Mom's a hairstylist)!
I'm going to take a power nap now................
I am feeling more at home and love my Mom's kisses. I have found a comfy spot in a basket in the closet filled with soft scarfs where I feel safe and sleep during my down time during the day. I am now inching closer to my Mom at night in bed under the covers. Yeah! I've decided to be a bit of a Diva with my food choices and sending her to the store for all sorts of selections just to see what she brings home.
The feather toy that the Siamese Rescue folks sent home with me is still my favorite! Thanks guys!
Marney's 4 month anniversary is today. She has made so many strides in her sense of security. As hoped, she has made her way up the bed at bedtime and snuggles for a few minutes before heading back to the foot of the bed.
She is clearly feeling much more comfortable in her new surroundings, getting used to the new sounds and daily activities.Now she only hides for 5 minutes after the vacuum is put away! She no longer sleeps in the closet during the day choosing to sleep on a chair basking in the sun instead. She loves watching the birds fly by.
Her favorite toy remains the boa wand Siamese Rescue sent along with her!
Marney is a very sweet girl and with each week I see her becoming more affectionate.
She keeps me laughing at some of her antics........I always know when she's "hit "the fresh catnip mouse!
Cheers to all!
Marney and Leigh
July 4
Happy Fourth of July.
Marney's five month anniversary is today.
She is really such a sweet girl.
Becoming more and more affectionate, I am waking to her face on mine! How I love that feeling.
I am so happy that she has a safe and loving home that she so deserves and that she is clearly feeling at home with me.
August 4
Thanks to Siamese Rescue for your 6 month congrats email!
The honeymoon is not over!
This darling kitty has clearly made great strides. She is now lying on her favorite chair and puts her head back so I can stroke her neck and chin. A sure sign of feeling secure !She does let me know when she's had enough....oh those girls, gotta love them for speaking their minds!
I adore her and can safely say she is feeling quite content with her adopted mom.
She continues to entertain me. Each morning I find a different toy placed on her food tray sometimes 3 or 4.
She somehow found a forgotten tissue insert that comes with new shoes and decided that it made a great toy. The next morning it was in her food dish. So cute.
She spends more time next to me and I'm fairly certain that this winter I may be able to tuck away my electric blanket!
Cheers to all of you devoted volunteers! A special thanks to Emily, Jeanne, Suri and all the dedicated drivers for bringing us together.
Marney and Leigh
P.S. My sister came to feed her while my brother-in-law waited in the car. He became concerned when she took so long...... giving lots of.pets and loves. I'm not sure I want her checking on her anymore, she might kidnap her she thinks Marney is so cute!
August 30th 2012
Almost 7 months together and we are a pair! After learning each others preferences and quirks we have truly bonded. Marney is more loving and trusting as each day passes. I absolutely adore my girl! I actually was allowed to clip all front claws today. Yippee!She is more receptive to pets and holding for longer periods of time. Lucky me!
Thank you all for all of your time committed to these wonderful cats and dedication to their care.

Sept 21
My Mom adores me so I have decided to show my total confidence in her. She kept bringing home new toys which I have NO interest in so she finally stopped and now I can just do what I like best. Run, jump, hide and surprise and play with my aluminum foil balls as well as my mandatory love sessions.
She has figured me out and has given me time to feel completely safe. The game is over and I can relax and be my darling, loving self.
P.S. I am running the house, but don't tell her!

December 20th 2012
Marney is well and happy.

February 4th 2013
My first Anniversary! Yippee! It has been an interesting year. Learning each others habits and likes we have become great friends. Snuggles and face rubs are my favorites. I like giving my Mom kisses on her nose and she gives me kisses all over.
November was my Rabies shot...I was sweet as always!
I went to see my Vet last month for a check up. As we already knew, my teeth are not my best quality so Mom had to take me back the next week for cleaning and 3 extractions! I did very well and took my antibiotics for 7 long days.Mom bought me baby food so it was easier for me to eat for a few days. I was so sweet during my recovery.Then Mom brought home Royal Canin oral sensitive dry food and I actually really like it.
Over the last year I managed to drop one pound and the Vet seems to think I am really healthy and have a very soft healthy coat! Pretty and sweet girl is what I hear a lot!
Thank you for your nice Anniversary message.
I am very content and happy in my loving home.
Marney

Hello all,
Just a quick update. SO settled in and taken over...Mom is thrilled that I am completely at home and the snuggle bug she knew I truly was. Life is good. Days spent lounging, eating and watching the birds and running crazily around for my cardio workout. My favorite sport, however, is waking Mom between 4 and 6 am with nibbles on her arm,foot or face for food or play depending on the day. She eventually does what I ask....like I said life is good.
Best to all,
Marney and Leigh

BROOKLYN
Looking for a hospice placement for nothing but sweet and gentle. Possible mammary cancer on top of everything else I've been battling, I have the sunniest attitude one could ask for. Just need a place to be loved and adored for the time I have left. No fees, just love please.

Notes from Home
Brooklyn is adjusting well to her new home. She was guarded (but hopeful) at first but has taken on confidence. She follows me around quite a bit and, as of last night, decided to sleep on me instead of on the other side of the bed.
She enjoys laying on the cat tree in my office or on the bed as both allow for her to bask in the sun. She makes rounds looking out the doors and windows too. She has pretty much the run of the house now except for the room Sunti (not sure his new name yet) will occupy on arrival for a few days of integration.
She is eating and drinking well and took to her litterbox the first day without issue. She continues to eat the Grain-free Wellness regular as she was not interested in the GrainFree Wellness Core. She is such a sweet little girl and it gives me great joy to see her relaxing into her new home. You can almost see her believe she is home as each day passes, especially when she is sleeping so peacefully.
She is playing with her toys and the kick-a-roo that Bailey left when he died in July. She seems to like those better than the new one I purchased for her. Perhaps his smell gives her comfort? She is such a sweetheart and I am so glad SCRC was there for her.
11/1/2013: Brooklyn has claimed her home. She has been to the vet with a positive check up. Everyone who meets her thinks she is the sweetest thing. She rides great in her Sleepypod (cat carrier) and loves using her cat trees to look out the windows. She has quit sleeping in her Millie since discovering she is permitted on my king-size bed and a rocker beside the window where she sleeps in the sun during the day. She is quite playful and loves to follow me around the house. She has been a great comfort to me as I mourn the loss of Yuri (Sunti). More photos will be posted soon. She is such a joy to care for. I am so fortunate to have her in my life.
6/2/2014: It is hard to believe that it is a little over 6 months since Brooklyn came home. She is so set in her routines it is as if she has had them for years. We go monthly to get fluids at the vet and she is so good. Not a peep from her but don't try to clip her nails without towels to wrap her up with else you are wrestling with a tiger. Despite her feisty nail clipping response, she is a sweet girl that loves life and a sunbeam. I had three sets of custom made cat steps to help her get to and from the couch, her favorite rocker and the bed. She has good food and treats and she still loves her water fountain. I cannot believe someone threw her away. So thankful that Siamese Rescue and all the volunteers was there for her. She is a treasure.
11/25/2015: It has been just over 2 years since Brooklyn came home. She continues to make me smile and inspire me every day. She was diagnosed with CRF (renal failure) this year. We were going to have her mammary growth removed based on how it was acting but after the pre-surgery blood work that was cancelled. We began an aggressive fluid therapy (2 times per day) and then once a day. We have worked to find acceptable food for the princess's palate that will not overwhelm her kidneys. Her BUN fluctuates between 34-37 but her creatinine is now at 2.4. Her weight is holding steady. She is enjoying life and doesn't know her kidneys are bad. She plays with toys and is loving her new extra-long heating pad. She is in good shape for her age and what she had been through. Still doing the dance in front of the water bowl. Many thanks to all that rescued her. Love her to bits.
10/31/2016: Happy Anniversary to Brooklyn. This month we celebrated 3 years of Brooklyn's coming home. She remains the easiest cat to fall in love with. She is sweet, loving and doesn't ask for much. She is now about 17 and still gives my much younger oriental shorthair a butt-kicking if he bugs her. Which he doesn't do but just being in her heated bed will bug her and she will let him know. She continues to eat well and maintain her weight. Her vision and hearing are almost all gone unless you are right up to her or she sees motion. Even so, she gets around great thanks to night lights and LED candles that come on automatically and are on staggered timers. She loves to lay in the sun in my office while I work, lays on my lap at night and sleeps on the bed.
Our time, I am afraid, maybe starting to run out. We had a tumor removed in January 2016. It grew back and is growing faster. She has also been struggling with kidney issues. She takes her fluids so well. But her kidney values have been climbing despite fluid therapy. She has also been diagnosed with a grade 2 heart murmur.
No matter how much time is left she will be loved and receive the best medical care. I am so glad that she is in my life and I cherish every day.
4/22/2017 It is with great sadness that I write my last update from home for my sweet Princess. Brooklyn battled renal disease and she was stable on a SubQ fluids regime. We had a tumor removed last year in Jan 2016 and she was holding her own. more tumors had grown back and some ulcerated but we treated those and she still had a lot of life left.
This week she started coughing, dry coughs. Since she had recently been on antibiotics to treat an ulceration of a tumor, it wasn't an infection. Vet said to watch her and if she got worse bring her in before the appt to x-ray next week. Sadly, the last 36 hours she declined and her breathing became noticeably more strained this morning. So we went to the vet and the cancer was in her lungs.
I held her in my arms as they euthanized her. I will miss my sweet feisty little princess but am so blessed and grateful for the 3.5 years that I was able to give her. Rest in Peace my sweet girl.

RAZZLE
Hi, I'm Razzle! If you're looking for a ready-made family, I'd like to stay with my brother Dazzle. I was really scared when my old family turned us over to the shelter, and I'm not sure if I can trust foster mom and dad just yet. Foster mom has a feeling that I'm going to come out of my shell soon, and then she'll tell you more about me. Congrats Linda in DC!

CURT
Lovely pair of super sized lovebugs! I love catnip :) Well I love my food too but catnip's a close second. And laps? They come in third :) I'm working on this diet thing and am excellent in all my habits. Outgoing and friendly, talkative and loving!

Kurt is the other best part of my day, waking up they are the first thing I tend too before starting my day, I can't wait to come home to them as they greet me at the door unless they are resting on our bed. Kurt especially, at bedtime will jump on the bed and crawl over to me and lay right beside me and as I hug him and give him love he purrs so loud and beautifully. As I write this Kurt is laying right next to me on the sofa and Ashton is on the arm of the sofa sleeping as well. I love my boys

TRISTAN
Just arrived yesterday, and already I've had a bath. I'm settling in here but I'm a bit scared of all the new things in my life. You see, I wasn't handled much so far and had to fend for myself, but I'm finding out that pets and skritches feel good and even rewarded meomy with so purrs this morning. I'll have to tell you more as I relax more.
Update:I come to the front of the cage withmy tail up and rub when I see meowmy coming. I love to play, purr as soon asmeowmy starts to pet me, I don't think I'll ever be a meet and greet type of cat, but will be very loving and comfortable in my environment onceI 'm settled in. A little patience on your part will be well rewarded in the end.
Purrs,
Dexter.

Hey Guys,
It's me, Tristan ;o)!! Well, I'm a big boy now, check out my pics!!!! I was a little sick when my meowmommy adopted me but she nursed be to health and my Vet says I'm good to go ;o)! I give my meowmommy head butts when I see her and play a lot with my big brother (Milo). Well, until next time, know that I'm loved and cherished beyond measures :o)!!!
Best wishes,
Tristan
PS: Thank you all for taking care of me when I was a little one and finding me a forever home :o)!!!
Hey Guys,
It's me, Tristan (aka-Dexter). My mom changed my name, she said I looked like a Tristan so there it is ;o)! I'm settling in fine - still a little untrusting at times but as soon as my new meomy touches me I start to purr and I know she loves me and won't hurt me ;o)! Here are some pics she took of me...my eyes are closed a lot because I don't particularly like that flashy thing, but my meowmy loves it...I'll check in soon. Thanks Foster meowmy Jeanne for taking such good care of me. My eyes are much better because my new meowmy is very attentive when it comes to my health...will let you know how my first vet appointment goes in a week or so...bye for now...Tristan
Hey There,
It's Tristan again, just wanted to let you all know I'm doing fine and growing really fast so check out my new pics!! My meowmy is so in love with me too...she's growing on me, what can I say ;o)! I like my new brother Milo, he was also adopted from the Siamese Rescue. We play-fight a lot, I admit, I start all the fights, but he puts up with me and trys not to hurt me during our play time. Meowmy is really careful to make sure we don't get outta' hand!! Anyway, its been about 3 months now and I just wanted to check in! Oh, I like my new Vet too...not crazy about he carriage ride to/from so I get really quiet then when I get home its all play again. Well, Happy New Year Siamese Rescue, I'll be seein' ya'...
Tristan
Hey, I'm very sad to report my brother Milo (aka Boon) has gone on to kitty heaven...he left me on 3/23/17 and never came back and I'm very sad...I hope my cat-mommy finds me a brother or sister soon...I miss my big brother and call out to him at night but he never comes...my cat-mommy has been especially loving to me but since I'm not a lap-kitty like my big bro I'm hoping she adopts soon because all her lovin' is driving me crazy ;o)...I'll keep you guys posted...paws crossed for a new sibling soon...

Notes from Home
Hey Guys,
Well, its been a while - going on almost 10 years with my new home. I still miss my big sister (Nadia) but I know she's in a better place...kitty heaven. Since I last talked to you guys I got this new little brother (Tristan)! He can be a pill sometimes...always wanting to play when I wanna' sleep, scares me when I come out of the litter box, he's nuts :o) but I've learned to love him ;o)! We get along great but mommy separates us during the day while she's at work - she thinks us boys will tear the house up playing...she's probably right ;o) but in the evenings when she gets in ITS ON ;o) Tristan misses me and I miss him so we play all night until mommy goes to sleep - I still sleep on her bed with her but Tristan likes to sleep in our new kitty tower - mommy got it for us last year for Christmas. She takes good care of me and Tristan...thank you so much for my new home...and my new little brother, Tristan!!!
Best wishes,
Milo (aka-Boon) ;o)
Hey Guys!! It's me Boon! Well, my mommy changed my name to Milo. Since I was just a baby when she got me it didn't take long for me to get use to my new name, I like it ;o)! So far I'm having the time of my life - my mommy LOVES ME SO MUCH, she's always hugging and kissing on me which only makes me wanna' follow her EVERYWHERE. I wait for my mommy to get home every day and fall in front of her onto my back so she can rub my belly...I still don't know why she insists on trying to put her bags down first - sometimes I put on the extra charm just to watch her struggle to rub me...I'm mischievous like that ;o)!! Well, these days I'm a little sad...my sister Nadia left last weekend and never came back...I still look for her in hopes that she'll return but my mommy says she's gone to heaven and had cancer...don't know what cancer is but I don't like it :o(!!! Well, hopefully I'll get a new baby brother soon...guess I'll just have to wait for that surprise one day! You guys take care and thank you Siamese Rescue for my new forever home, I'm so very happy here with my mommy ;o)!!
Hello Cat Lovers - I'm very sad to report that Milo (aka Boon) went to Rainbow Heaven on 3/23/17. He had a fight with a vicious stomach tumor that left me no choice but to let him go. He passed peacefully at the Vet's office the morning of 3/23/17. He lived a wonderful life and is leaving me with MANY JOYFUL memories...there will never be another Milo and I will never try to replace him. His brother Tristan is sad so I'm pretty sure I'll be adopting a sister for him sooner than later. God bless you all and thank you for blessing me with such a beautiful and loving kitty.
Kind regards always,
Milo's Cat-Mom,
Fay
