I just got a new male flame point siamese cat. He is 1 year. This is my first time since childhood having a cat. The problem is every time I try to walk around he swirls around me and between my legs constantly. Is there anything I can do to make this stop? I give him lots of attention otherwise and he is a very sweet cat. Also he is not neutered which I will be taking care of very soon. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

I think he really really loves you!!!! I think he's just trying to mark you with his scent, to show everyone you are his human -- honestly, I think it's a sign of affection.

Siamese are very people oriented and tend to want to stick close. Not a lot you really can do - he just wants attention


BTW in the siamese its not called "flame point" - its called Red Point (flame point is for himalayans)

This is just a sign of affection/attachment. It means he likes you! Most cats will do this when you come home from being out for a while, but some like to be near you whenever you're moving around. Not much you can do to stop it...but why would you want to?
