New and new cat

Hi all!

My husband I are in the process of adopting a third cat to add to the two I brought into the marriage. Just waiting on her to be spayed by the rescue, then she's ours! I haven't brought home a new cat in four years (last one was 100% feral), so I'm excited and nervous at the same time. The new cat was abused, and at the age of four, still not spayed and recovering from a litter. Here's my new beauty:



I know nothing about Siamese type cats, so I'm curious where the long hair comes from. Just a long haired Siamese, or can a DLH be mixed in and still result in the points and long hair? Her kittens are black, which is apparently typical for Siamese. Anyway, I'm looking forward to getting her home and gaining her trust.

We have a rule here - no kittens. :-) My feral was a year old when I trapped her, and although it took three years to socialize her, it was 100% worth it. I think sometimes the harder they are, the more gratifying it is!

Hi and welcome to TCS . Your new cat sure is a pretty one . I would love to see photo's of your other cats. That is great that you adopted so many cats .

I like your rule - the kittens are the easiest to adopt - I don't know about Siamese breeds - but I'm sure any cat that was abused will have some baggage - most likely mostly overcome with the loving you'll provide.

She's beautiful, and keep us updated on her progress, please.

aww very cute
