    Default Venus

    This is Venus (what a name) She is the 2nd of the two cats I adopted after my friend Pam who lost her battle with cancer.
    Venus is skittish and is just now venturing out of my bedroom. She is very sweet. Her brother, Zeus is now over any issues with the move. He lives large all over the house.

    Our friends have a black beauty called Yoda and we call her tourette's Cat, the reason being she comes to your lap all purring and begging; as a human you start to stroke her all over and she enjoys it. She's "tourette's" because as soon as you have stroked he enough, she wouldn't just go away but she would attack your hand, really viciously . . . with her claws.

    I am a big cat fan Cathy and I find that Siamese are fun and intelligent companions. Is Zeus rather domineering with Venus? Are brother and sister get along, but the male tends to throw his weight around a bit to the female's consternation. AL

    No, Al..there is never anything harsh between them. Jack (my manx) and Zeus have little moments. But they don't fight they just sort off have a face to face thing. I brought two adults cats into a household where an adult cat lives. It could have been bad...but really they all get along.
