You've described Neve perfectly!!!!!! How long have you had Casper? Has there been improvement? Domestic or imported - your choice! Thanks for taking time to commiserate with me. Situations are easier when shared. Thanks/e
Yep - she probably would enjoy a vacation without this crazy old woman trying to hug her . I'd have no qualms about leaving her overnight or perhaps even a weekend; problem is that every place I want to go is far more than an overnight trip. She sleeps in an igloo type cat bed and I've been...
Thank you for your kind response. Yes, each cat is different. During the past 30 years, I've been blessed with three other Siamese who were cuddly, communicative, and happy to travel, so I'm astonished and sad that this one won't allow me to pick her up. She sure does enjoy being petted...
i, too, am heartbroken cuz I can't pick up my cat. She's a red-point Siamese that I got from a Siamese Rescue center 1-1/2 years ago when she was about a year old. It was several months before she let me pet her but now she's addicted to being petted - as long as I'm sitting or lying down...
Here she is now and she's sooooo soft. She's a sweetie, too - just can't pick her up and have never heard a sound out of her - never knew there was such a thing as a Silent Siamese! My other three talked to me all the time and I do miss that. Anyone else have a silent Siamese? Thanks/elaine

;>) My sneezes, too! And, yes, cats are a tad irrational (so say humans) but that's part of the charm, right? I'd love for her to become a lap cat. Seems she's more social in the dark - easier to pet her in bed when lights are out...go figure. Anyway, last night, she wanted tummy rubbed, and...
How wonderful of you to take time for this answer. Your info is encouraging, in that you've had the same experience I'm now having. It's a little discouraging to know that, after a year, your cats still are spooked by noises/sneezes and that it was six months before they talked. However, it's...
Have just been doing that. She loves the treats and I can see how it takes courage for her to come for them. As soon as she snatches the treat, she takes off like a rocket....sigh. Thanks for your help. Hope your cat relaxes soon.
Hi all, Glad to find this site cuz I'm really stymied. In Nov/2014, I got 16- month female red point from Siamese Rescue Assn. She's extremely anxious/shy but, at last, she gets on my bed at night to be petted. It's the only time I can touch her. She spends the rest of the time behind my bed...
