PS: if you got a Siamese don't let the poor thing out in the winter! They are warm weather animals and will quickly catch pneumonitis (cat pneumonia) and die if they go outside in the winter here. I doubt I could covince mine to go outside once the first cold breeze hit him as he is a total heat seeking missle.
