Siamese Kittens should be together for at least 16 to 18 weeks to allow for their social development. Social development will follow them through their entire life…it will determine if they are playful, loyal, fun-loving and most importantly, full of love to give to their favorite person. These three kittens were from the same litter—they were together until the age of 5 months. Two have chosen to be “show girls” while the other chose to be a ‘home kitty”—she lives happily with her new family in Virginia.

I feel that it is the mother’s responsibility to wean her babies—most of the time this works out. As you can see, these “kittens” are still clinging to mom…and, mom seems to like it. When they are too old, their mom will let them know that the snack bar is closed. If kittens are removed from their mom too early it can effect their social development and cause shyness, lack of personality, and poor health and development. All three of these kittens have no problems with being fun-loving and outgoing.

Our Siamese live free to roam in my home. They are clean cats and with normal house keeping they can be undetectable by the average visitor. They do not like homes that are not clean. Most problems with cats that are not “clean” arise from the environment in which they were raised…a dirty environment will produce a cat whose habits are not appropriate—poor litter box habits are one major problem. Cats like clean litter pans and Siamese will refuse to use a dirty one! At least they won’t like it if the pan is not sparkling clean!

Kittens from the same litter generally “hang out” together. This is one litter, Rosealee, Leggs and “Curly Sue” aka Miss Madison (She lives in Fairfax, Virginia and is the proud owner of Meredith Blankenstein)
